Explanation:
Air pollution can harm us when it accumulates in the air in high enough concentrations.
Millions of Americans live in areas where urban smog, particle pollution, and toxic
pollutants pose serious health concerns. People exposed to high enough levels of
certain air pollutants may experience:
* Irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat
*Wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and breathing difficulties
*Worsening of existing lung and heart problems, such as asthma
*Increased risk of heart attack
In addition, long-term exposure to air pollution can cause cancer and damage to the
immune, neurological, reproductive, and respiratory systems. In extreme cases, it can
even cause death
