This research examines whether air pollution affects risk-taking behaviour. Using survey data from 40,000 Indonesians and satellite pollution measurements, it shows that higher pollution levels make people more risk-averse. Because risk preferences influence education, careers, entrepreneurship, and innovation, cleaner air may improve both health outcomes and economic decision-making.
