This document discusses air pollution and its causes and effects. It notes that air is composed primarily of nitrogen (78%), oxygen (21%), and argon (1%). It also contains small amounts of carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other gases. Air pollution occurs when harmful substances contaminate the air and affect both living and nonliving things. Some key air pollutants discussed include carbon monoxide, smog, sulfur dioxide, and chlorofluorocarbons. The document lists various sources of air pollution like automobile exhaust, burning of fuels, and power plants. Respiratory diseases are among the health effects of air pollution.

Air pollutants • Any unwanted or harmful substance present in the air that decreases its quality & contaminates it is called air pollution .
,, Pollutants Source Effects Carbon monoxide It produced due to improper combustion of fuels • Poisonous gas • Dec blood’s carrying capacity • Causes difficulty in breathing. smog It is a combination of fog & smoke • Cause asthma, cough. • Leads to Dec. visibility. Sulphur dioxide Produced mainly due to the combustion of coal. • Leads to respiratory problems • Cause lung damage. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) Produced from air conditioners , refrigerators & aerosols • Deteriorate the ozone layer • Dec visibility. Suspended particulate matter(SPM) Produced due to the burning of fuels • Lead to problems in breathing.
