Only so much you can do about ambient pollution in your city. Looking carefully at your cooking situation is worthwhile though. Was horrified by the spike in readings from stuff like steak in a pan
Are there studies showing indoor air pollution from cooking in a residential setting is linked to dementia?

I've heard the argument made that it's better to stop burning fossil fuel, even if you're a climate change denier for reasons like this. Even if you think climate change is a hoax, why not reduce pollution anyway?
However, some things that are regarded as renewable (e.g. wood burning, such as the notorious Drax power station in the UK) are more polluting than fossil fuels. Personally I doubt they are even effective at CO₂ reduction. What we need is clean energy.

I don't doubt it and they could expect other implications if the pollution also included heavy metals and other chemicals in the air, water and land.
Does this imply that in 30 years or more we should expect spikes in China, India and other places with exceptional air pollution? I don't doubt it and they could expect other implications if the pollution also included heavy metals and other chemicals in the air, water and land.

An air purifier is pretty cheap and will cut down on indoor pollution from cooking a lot. Or at least that’s how it seemed from the somewhat unreliable sensor I was using. https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-air-purifier...
In my opinion, the reason air pollution effects dementia risk is through activation of Heat Shock Proteins and I think it is the most valuable place to be investing in research. Heat Shock Proteins in Alzheimer’s Disease: Role and Targeting https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6163571/

The air pollution in China and India was already awful 30 years ago, so "spike" is not be best choice of word. "Continuation of a high level of dementia" would be better.

Heat shock proteins (and cold shock proteins) are affected by more than temperature, but temperature is really important as well.[1][2]
