What is Air Pollution?
Air pollution is contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by any chemical, physical or biological agent that modifies the natural characteristics of the atmosphere.
Household combustion devices, motor vehicles, industrial facilities and forest fires are common sources of air pollution. Pollutants of major public health concern include particulate matter, carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide. Outdoor and indoor air pollution cause respiratory and other diseases and are important sources of morbidity and mortality.
The more we pollute the earth, the less we deserve to live on earth! Everyone talks about stopping environment pollution! As long as humans exist on earth, it is not possible to 'stop' pollution entirely, but it can be 'minimised'!
