The document provides an overview of Scrum, an agile software development process. It discusses the history and principles of Scrum, describes Scrum roles, processes, artifacts, and how Scrum enables rapid delivery of working software in short iterations through self-organizing cross-functional teams and empirical process control. The advantages of Scrum include delivering working software frequently and improving productivity, while disadvantages include potential ineffectiveness for small projects and high implementation costs.
Scrum is an agile process that focuses on delivering the highest priority features in short iterations called sprints. During a sprint, a self-organizing team works on user stories from the product backlog and meets daily to track progress. At the end of a sprint, working software is demoed to stakeholders. Scrum uses roles like product owner, ScrumMaster, and team as well as artifacts like product backlog, sprint backlog, and burn down charts to help deliver value quickly.
Air pollution is contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by any ch...dhanashree78

Air pollution is contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by any chemical, physical or biological agent that modifies the natural characteristics of the atmosphere.
Household combustion devices, motor vehicles, industrial facilities and forest fires are common sources of air pollution. Pollutants of major public health concern include particulate matter, carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide. Outdoor and indoor air pollution cause respiratory and other diseases and are important sources of morbidity and mortality.
WHO data show that almost all of the global population (99%) breathe air that exceeds WHO guideline limits and contains high levels of pollutants, with low- and middle-income countries suffering from the highest exposures.
Air quality is closely linked to the earth’s climate and ecosystems globally. Many of the drivers of air pollution (i.e. combustion of fossil fuels) are also sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Policies to reduce air pollution, therefore, offer a win-win strategy for both climate and health, lowering the burden of disease attributable to air pollution, as well as contributing to the near- and long-term mitigation of climate change.
