Airborne pollutants are harmful substances found in the air we breathe. They can come from various sources, including vehicle emissions, industrial processes, and natural events like wildfires. Common types of airborne pollutants include particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and volatile organic compounds. These pollutants can negatively impact air quality and human health. Exposure to airborne pollutants can lead to respiratory issues, cardiovascular diseases, and other health problems. Additionally, they can harm the environment by contributing to issues like acid rain and climate change. Monitoring and reducing airborne pollutants is essential for protecting public health and the planet, involving efforts from governments, industries, and individuals.
