 Air pollution is one of the world's most pressing issues, leading to increased morbidity and mortality rates due to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, reproductive and central nervous system dysfunction and cancer. Pollutants such as particulate matter, ozone, sulfur dioxide, volatile organic compounds, dioxins, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are all harmful to humans, while carbon monoxide can cause direct poisoning. Lead, when absorbed into the body, can lead to either direct poisoning or chronic intoxication depending on exposure. Respiratory diseases such as COPD, asthma, bronchiolitis, and lung cancer, as well as cardiovascular events, central nervous system dysfunction, and skin diseases have been linked to air pollution. To combat this issue, public awareness and a multi-disciplinary approach involving scientists from various fields are necessary.
