Abstract

The consequences of air pollution encompass a wide range of environmental, social, and health impacts. Environmental effects include smog formation, acid rain, and ecosystem degradation. Socially, air pollution leads to reduced visibility, malodorous conditions, and overall reduced quality of life. However, the most alarming consequences are associated with adverse health effects in humans and other living organisms. Air pollution has been linked to respiratory diseases, cardiovascular problems, allergies, and premature death. Therefore, a multifaceted approach is required to mitigate air pollution. This includes both preventive and active intervention. Preventive measures include reducing emissions from their sources through the implementation of stringent environmental regulations, adoption of cleaner technologies, and promotion of sustainable practices. Additionally, public awareness and education campaigns play a crucial role in encouraging individuals and communities to adopt eco-friendly behaviours and reduce their carbon footprint.
