Hello

Here I have listed 10 common air pollution causes along with the effects that have serious implication on your health on a daily basis.

1. The Burning of Fossil Fuels

Most of the air pollution takes place due to the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, gasoline to produce energy for electricity or transportation.

2. Industrial Emission

Industrial activities emit several pollutants in the air that affects the air quality more than we can even imagine.

3. Indoor Air Pollution

Use of toxic products also called as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), inadequate ventilation, uneven temperature, and humidity level can cause indoor air pollution, whether you are in office, school or at your comfortable home.

4. Wildfires

Climate change is not just increasing wildfire but also spiking air pollution. Burning stubble and farm residue is also a major contribution to wildfire.

5. Microbial Decaying Process

Manufacturing, chemical, and textiles industries release a large number of carbon monoxides, hydrocarbons, chemicals and organic compounds which contaminate our environment.

There is no denying that vehicle pollution is the major contributor to air pollution, especially in urban cities.

During clean air act movement, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) registered the highest number of air pollution complaints in the Delhi NCR due to construction and demolition activities.

9. Agricultural Activities

Agricultural activities have had a serious impact on the decreasing air quality. To begin with pesticides and fertilizers are the main source to contaminate the surrounding air.
