These pollutants can originate from a variety of sources, both natural and anthropogenic. Natural sources include volcanic eruptions, dust storms, and wildfires. Anthropogenic sources are more varied and prevalent, encompassing emissions from industrial processes, vehicle exhaust, power generation, and agricultural activities.
The effects of air pollution are far-reaching, impacting human health, ecosystems, and the global climate. For
Mitigation strategies for air pollution involve a combination of technological advancements, policy interventions, and individual actions.
