    Air Pollution Health Effects

    Respiratory Problems

    • Air pollution can cause respiratory problems, such as:
      • Asthma
      • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
      • Lung cancer
      • Pneumonia
    • Particulate Matter (PM) and Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) are major contributors to respiratory problems

    Cardiovascular Problems

    • Air pollution can increase the risk of:
      • Heart attacks
      • Strokes
      • Cardiovascular disease
    • Exposure to PM, NO2, and Ozone (O3) can lead to cardiovascular problems

    Neurological and Developmental Problems

    • Air pollution has been linked to:
      • Neurological damage
      • Cognitive impairment
      • Autism spectrum disorder
      • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
    • Exposure to air pollutants, especially Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs), can affect brain development

    Other Health Effects

    • Air pollution has also been linked to:
      • Cancer
      • Reproductive problems
      • Respiratory infections
      • Mental health problems

    Indoor Air Quality

    Sources of Indoor Air Pollution

    • Indoor air pollution can come from:
      • Combustion sources (e.g., stoves, fireplaces)
      • Building materials and furnishings (e.g., asbestos, formaldehyde)
      • Cleaning products and pesticides
      • Moisture and mold

    Health Effects of Indoor Air Pollution

    • Indoor air pollution can cause:
      • Respiratory problems
      • Allergic reactions
      • Cancer
      • Neurological problems
    • Poor indoor air quality can exacerbate existing health conditions, such as asthma

    Reducing Indoor Air Pollution

    • Ways to reduce indoor air pollution:
      • Use low-VOC (volatile organic compound) paints and cleaning products
      • Improve ventilation and air filtration
      • Remove sources of pollution (e.g., asbestos)
      • Reduce moisture and prevent mold growth
