Air pollution
Air pollution is a major problem all over the world today. Probably the single
biggest contributor to the problem is the motor vehicle. However, there are
many other man-made sources, such as industrial factories, power stations,
mining, building, and the burning of fossil fuels and wood in homes around the
world. There are natural sources of air pollution too; volcanoes and forest fires
produce a lot of pollutants. However, it is the increasing number and use of
motor vehicle that is doing the most damage, and logically, where there are
more cars, there is more pollution, that is, in the major cities of the world. Some
of the most polluted cities of 2020 include India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and
Uganda.
