Overview
• Air pollution kills an estimated seven million
people worldwide every year. WHO data shows
that 9 out of 10 people breathe air containing
high levels of pollutans. WHO is working with
countries to monitor air pollution and improve
air quality.

• From smog hanging over cities to smoke inside


the home, air pollution poses a major threath
to health and climate. The combined effects of
ambient (outdoor) and household air pollution
cause about seven million premature deaths
every year, largely as a result of increased
mortality from stroke, heart disease, chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer and
acute respiratory infections.
Overview

• More than 80% of people living


in urban areas that monitor air
pollution are exposed to air
quality levels that exceed WHO
guideline limits, with low- and
middle-income countries
suffering from the highest
exposures, both indoors and
outdoors.
What is
AIR POLLUTION
Air pollution is a type
of environmental pollution that
affects the air.

Air pollution occurs when


harmful or excessive quantities
of substances are introduced
into earth’s atmosphere.

Many of the world's large cities


today have polluted air or
Sources of
AIR POLLUTION
Sources of air pollution
include:
• gases (such
as ammonia, carbon
monoxide, sulfur
dioxide, nitrousoxides,
methane and
chlorofluorocarbon)
• particulates (both
organic and inorganic),
• and biological molecules
What causes Air
Pollution?
• Both human activity and
natural processes can
generate air pollution.

THE IMPACT of
air pollution on
Life Effect

It may cause:
• diseases
• allergies
• and even death to humans

• it may also cause harm to other


living organisms such as animals
and food crops, and may damage
the natural or built environment
THE IMPACT of
air pollution on HEALTH EFFECT
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVBeY1jSG9Y

• Air pollution is a significant risk factor for a number


of pollution-related diseases, including respiratory
infection, heart disease, COPD, stroke and lung cancer
• The human health effects of poor air quality are far
reaching, but principally affect the body's respiratory
system and the cardiovascular system.
• Individual reactions to air pollutants depend on the
type of pollutant a person is exposed to, the degree of
exposure, and the individual's health status and
genetics.
THE IMPACT of
air pollution on HEALTH EFFECT

• Indoor air pollution and poor urban


air quality are listed as two of the
world's worst toxic pollution problems
in the 2008.
• Outdoor air pollution alone causes
2.1 to 4.21 million deaths annually.[
• Overall, air pollution causes the
deaths of around 7 million people
worldwide each year, and is the
world's largest single environmental
health risk.

Air pollution is an invisible killer that lurks
all around us, preying on the young and
old. Learn how it slips unnoticed past our
body's defenses causing deaths from heart
attack, strokes, lung disease and cancer.

What is
CLIMATE CHANGE? (1)
Climate change refers to any
significant change in
the measures of climate lasting for an
extended period of time.

In other words, climate change includes


major changes in temperature, precipitation,
or wind patterns, among other effects, that
occur over several decades or longer.

The seas are rising. The foods we eat and


take for granted are threatened. Ocean
acidification is increasing
What is CLIMATE CHANGE? (2)

Climate change, also called global warming,


refers to the rise in average surface temperatures
on Earth.

An overwhelming scientific consensus maintains


that climate change is due primarily to the human
use of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide
and other greenhouse gases into the air.
What is CLIMATE CHANGE?(3)

Climate change is
any significant long-term change in the weather of
a region (or the whole Earth)
over a significant period of time.

Climate change is about abnormal variations to


the climate, and the effects of these variations on
other parts of the Earth.

• Global warming is the mainly human-caused rise of
the average temperature of the Earth's climate
system and has been demonstrated by direct
temperature measurements and by measurements of
various effects of the warming

• Global warming occurs when carbon dioxide (CO2)


and other air pollutants and greenhouse gases collect
in the atmosphere and absorb sunlight and solar
radiation that have bounced off the earth's surface
