This chapter aims to bring attention to the origins of air pollution. Understanding the sources of air pollution is vital for grasping the intricate connections between human actions, natural occurrences, and environmental elements that contribute to poor air quality. Recognizing the origins, patterns,...
Particulate matter is a component of ambient air pollution that has been linked to millions of annual premature deaths globally1,2,3. Assessments of the chronic and acute effects of particulate matter on human health tend to be based on mass concentration, with particle size and composition also...

With the IELTS Academic Writing Task 1 Topic: Different sources of air pollutants - Line Graph, it will be beneficial to get familiarised with the IELTS Academic Writing Task 1 structure.
Climate change interacts with the sources and cycling of contaminants, such as radionuclides, in the environment. In this review, we discuss the implications of climate change impacts on existing and potential future sources of radionuclides associated w
Air pollution by particulate matter (PM) is one of the main threats to human health, particularly in large cities where pollution levels are continually exceeded. According to their source of emission, geography, and local meteorology, the pollutant particles vary in size and composition. These par...
