Pollution

Petrol and diesel vehicles are a major source of pollution. They emit harmful pollutants such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter, which contribute to air quality degradation and climate change.

The Impact

Air pollution causes significant health problems, including respiratory infections, heart disease, and lung cancer. It also harms the environment by contributing to acid rain, eutrophication, and haze.

Solutions

Transitioning to electric vehicles, improving public transportation, and promoting active mobility like cycling and walking are key steps to reducing vehicle pollution.
