Answer:
NATURAL REASON:
- VOLCANIC ERUPTION: SOLID, GASEOUS AND LIQUID MATERIALS EMERGE OUT THROUGH ERUPTION. EX. HYDROGEN SULPHIDE, SULPHUR DIOXIDE, CARBON DIOXIDE, AMMONIUM CHLORIDE, HYDROGEN, VAPOURS , DUST, ETC.
- EARTHQUAKE: POISONOUS GASES AND WATER VAPOURS FROM INSIDE OF EARTH ARE RELEASED INTO AIR.
- CYCLONES AND DUST STORMS: DUST , SOIL, GARBAGE, POLLENS, MICROBES ARE MIXED WITH AIR.
- FOREST FIRES: FOREST FIRES RELEASE CARBON DIOXIDE, SULPHUR DIOXIDE, HYDROGEN SULPHIDE,SMOKE IN AIR.
- MICROBES IN AIR: POLLENS OF PARTHENIUM, SPORES OF BACTERIA, FUNGI ARE MIXED WITH AIR.
MANMADE REASON:
- FUEL: 1. BURNING OF FUEL LIKE COAL, TIMBER, LPG, KEROSENE, DIESEL, PETROL RELEASES CARBON DIOXIDE, CARBON MONOXIDE,NITROGEN OXIDE, SULPHUR DIOXIDE, LEAD COMPOUNDS, ETC. ARE RELEASED IN AIR
- 2. BURNING OF SOLID WASTE, AGRICULTURAL WASTE, ETC. IN OPEN SPACE CAUSES AIR POLLUTION.
- INDUSTRIALIZATION: SMOKE IS RELEASED IN LARGE QUANTITY FROM VARIOUS FACTORIES. SULPHUR POWDER, NITROGEN OXIDE, COTTEN SEED POWDER IN AIR.
- ATOMIC ENERGY PLANTS AND BLASTS: USE OF ELEMENTS LIKE URANIUM, THORIUM, GRAPHITE, PLUTONIUM RELEASE RADIATIONS IN AIR AND THUS POLLUTION OCCURS.
