1. EFFECTS OF AIR POLLUTION

2. The quality of the air we breathe is very crucial. Poor quality
can cause many health diseases in both adults and kids.
Especially to the people living in cities, the chances of getting
a disease like heart disease, stroke, chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD), lung cancer, and acute lower
respiratory infections are very high.
Long-term exposure to polluted air in kids can lead to loss of
lung capacity, asthma and emphysema. In addition, senior
citizens are more likely to get allergies and breathing
difficulties since they are less immune to the conditions. As a
precaution to all of these, we can wear a mask while going out
and traveling. If you are living in a highly polluted area,
consider buying an air purifier for your home. An air purifier
can help to improve the quality of air by filtering and thereby
enabling a healthy environment inside our home for everyone.
What Are The Health Issues
Due To Air Pollution?
3. The toxic gases also affect the environment in the same way. As the
amount of harmful gases increases in the earth, the uncertainty of the
environment's health also increases. Changes in climates like
temperature hikes, monsoon pattern shifts, and unexpected cyclones are
a few examples. In these, ozone layer depletion is being the most
complicated one.
We already know what is an ozone layer, and whats does it do? Let's
recall them for a while. The ozone layer is a part of the earth's
atmosphere, and it absorbs almost all of the sun's harmful ultraviolet light.
Guess what will happen when the ozone layer gets holes. All the harmful
rays will fall into the animals, plants, and people on earth through the
ozone layer holes. Studies say that by 2064 the ozone layer
concentration levels may come to zero if the rate of pollution continues
invariably. If that happens, the earth will not be a suitable place to live.
The fun factor is, we don't have any space other than earth to live right
now. So, we have to protect the planet from being a desert.
