  If that was the case why in summer there is no such pollution? As far as I know electricity usage is increasing in summer due to air conditioning.

      While I can’t find any relevant statistics I’m sure you’re right. But still, I’ve been in few different countries in Europe and AC isn’t as rare as some might think and I think everyone has a fridge that also has to work extra hard during summer. Compare that to winter, what takes most of the energy? Electric heaters? Doubt many people use that, electricity in Europe is just too expensive. Whatever the case it’s a fact that air is most polluted in winter during the highest cold.

        To my knowledge AC in countries north of italy is basically nonexistent in private homes. Mediterranean countries do often have it though.

        Fridges don’t even remotely compare to AC in power consumption, and inside temperature doesn’t differ as much as outside temperature in summer vs. winter because in winter the inside gets heated, and in summer isolation still keeps it below outside temps usually.
