Feedback

1

Smog combines combustion pollutants with fog or humidity, not just ordinary fog.

2

SO2 comes from burning sulfur-containing fuels and reacts to form acid rain and particulates.

3

Vehicles emit NOx, PM, and CO, often dominating urban air pollution.

4

Chronic exposure raises risks of asthma, COPD, heart disease.

5

Cleaner energy and EVs lower emissions from transport and power.

6

Vegetation traps particulates and absorbs some pollutants, improving air.

7

NOx is emitted directly from engines and furnaces; ozone forms secondarily.

8

Public transit reduces emissions; avoiding outdoor activity during high pollution lowers exposure.
