The impact of air pollution on human health is profound and multifaceted. Exposure to pollutants like particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds can lead to respiratory issues, cardiovascular diseases, and other serious health problems. Long-term exposure is associated with reduced life expectancy and increased healthcare costs. Additionally, vulnerable populations, such as children and the elderly, are disproportionately affected, making it crucial to address air quality for overall public health.
