We discuss the capability of climate change to intensify air pollution and alter particulate matter physicochemical properties such as size, dispersion, and chemical composition. These alterations play a significant role in influencing the deposition of particles in the lungs, leading to consequential respiratory health effects. The review paper provides a broad exploration of climate change’s direct and indirect role in modifying particulate air pollution features and its interaction with other air pollutants, which may change the ability of particle deposition in the lungs. In conclusion, climate change may play an important role in regulating particle deposition in the lungs by changing physicochemistry of particulate air pollution, therefore, increasing the risk of respiratory disease development.enAir pollution | asthma | children | COPD | extreme weather | secondary organic aerosol[SDGs]SDG3[SDGs]SDG13other10.1080/07853890.2023.2264881378016262-s2.0-85173737986https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85173737986
