Abstract

Man is causing all round damage to atmosphere, water, land, to the various elements of environment and to the ecosystem itself. Our atmosphere on global as well as regional scale is heavily polluted. Air pollution occurs when gases, dust particles, fumes (or smoke) or odour are introduced into the atmosphere in a way that makes it harmful to humans, animals and plant. Air pollution threatens the health of humans and other living beings in our planet. It creates smog, acid rain, causes cancer, respiratory diseases, reduces the ozone layer and contributes to global warming. In this review paper we discuss different types of air pollution and impacts of air pollution. Among all causes having a negative effect on air pollution shows the highest immediate risks but, at the same time, it can be reduced through viable solutions.

Keywords: Clean air.
