Air pollution is mainly caused by industries and vehicles running on petrol and diesel. The fuel such as diesel or gasoline in vehicles or coal in industries is burned to form oxides of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur and emit small particulate matters. These oxides and especially oxides of nitrogen and carbon are responsible for global warming. Particulate matters in an air and mainly those who are lower than 2.5 microns are carcinogenic and affect human health badly. Cleaner fuel and better technology can minimize the particulate matter, which will help in reducing air pollution.

Answer:

                 Air pollution

Air pollution refers to the release of pollutants into the air that are detrimental to human health and the planet as a whole.

Air pollution is caused by solid and liquid particles and certain gases that are suspended in the air. These particles and gases can come from car and truck exhaust, factories, dust, pollen, mold spores, volcanoes and wildfires. The solid and liquid particles suspended in our air are called aerosols.

           Effects On Humans

People experience a wide range of health effects from being exposed to air pollution. Effects can be broken down into short-term effects and long-term effects.

Short-term effects, which are temporary, include illnesses such as pneumonia or bronchitis. They also include discomfort such as irritation to the nose, throat, eyes, or skin. Air pollution can also cause headaches, dizziness, and nausea. Bad smells made by factories, garbage, or sewer systems are considered air pollution, too. These odors are less serious but still unpleasant.

Long-term effects of air pollution can last for years or for an entire lifetime. They can even lead to a person's death. Long-term health effects from air pollution include heart disease, lung cancer, and respiratory diseases such as emphysema. Air pollution can also cause long-term damage to people's nerves, brain, kidneys, liver, and other organs. Some scientists suspect air pollutants cause birth defects. Nearly 2.5 million people die worldwide each year from the effects of outdoor or indoor air pollution.

                Ways to reduce pollution

Anybody can take steps to reduce air pollution. Millions of people every day make simple changes in their lives to do this. Taking

instead of driving a car, or riding a bike instead of traveling in carbon dioxide-emitting vehicles are a couple of ways to reduce air pollution. Avoiding aerosol cans, recycling

instead of burning them, and not smoking cigarettes are others.
