Air pollution is the contamination of air by the discharge of harmful substances. Air pollution may be described as contamination of the atmosphere by gaseous, liquid, or solid wastes or by-products that can endanger human health and welfare of plants and animals, attack materials, reduce visibility or produce undesirable odors. As some pollutants are released by natural sources like volcanoes, coniferous forests, and hot springs, the effect of this pollution is very small when compared to that caused by emissions from industrial sources, power and heat generation, waste disposal, and the operation of internal combustion engines.

CONTAMINATION OF AIR BY

HARMFUL SUBSTANCES.

3. AIR POLLUTION IS THE CONTAMINATION OF AIR BY
THE DISCHARGE OF HARMFUL SUBSTANCES. AIR
POLLUTION MAY BE DESCRIBED AS CONTAMINATION
OF THE ATMOSPHERE BY GASEOUS, LIQUID, OR
SOLID WASTES OR BY-PRODUCTS THAT CAN
ENDANGER HUMAN HEALTH AND WELFARE OF
PLANTS AND ANIMALS, ATTACK MATERIALS, REDUCE
VISIBILITY OR PRODUCE UNDESIRABLE ODORS. AS
SOME POLLUTANTS ARE RELEASED BY NATURAL
SOURCES LIKE VOLCANOES, CONIFEROUS FORESTS,
AND HOT SPRINGS, THE EFFECT OF THIS POLLUTION
IS VERY SMALL WHEN COMPARED TO THAT CAUSED
BY EMISSIONS FROM INDUSTRIAL SOURCES, POWER
AND HEAT GENERATION, WASTE DISPOSAL, AND THE
OPERATION OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES.

4. FUEL COMBUSTION IS THE LARGEST
CONTRIBUTOR TO AIR POLLUTANT
EMISSIONS, CAUSED BY MAN, WITH
STATIONARY AND MOBILE SOURCES
EQUALLY RESPONSIBLE. THE AIR POLLUTION
PROBLEM IS ENCOUNTERED OUTDOOR AS
WELL AS INDOOR. INDOOR AIR POLLUTION
FIRST CAME TO OUR ATTENTION IN THE
1980’S, WHILE OUTDOOR HAS BEEN AROUND
FOR A MUCH LONG TIME.

5. CAUSES AIR
POLLUTION
1.Emissions from industries and
manufacturing activities

6. CAUSES AIR POLLUTION
2.Burning Fossil Fuels

8. EFFECTS OF AIR
POLLUTION
1.Respiratory and heart problems
2. Global warming
3. Eutrophication
4. Effect on Wildlife
5. Depletion of Ozone layer

6.Acid Rain:

10. SOLUTIONS FOR AIR
POLLUTION
1.Use public mode of transportation
2.Conserve energy
3.Emphasis on clean energy resources
4.Use energy efficient devices

11. CONCLUSION :
Air pollution is a major environment-related
health threat to children and a risk factor for
both acute and chronic respiratory disease. To
prevent this problem need to action by Govt
and also increase awareness among people.
