So there’s the choice of malnutrition or pollution?

Nope - I don’t think there is, but the parent (to my original comment) seemed to be suggesting so

You're reading into something that isn't there. The best and most equitable way to improve quality of life is to ensure a clean environment. Pollution is a great leveler, especially air pollution, as rich and poor have to breathe it alike if they wish to go outside.
