With the increasing global warming and air pollution, the air quality of across the globe starts degrading. But despite decades of progress, the air quality across the globe started to decline over the past few years. The Air Quality Index of big cities starts deteriorating. Air Pollution is more concentrated in urban areas where higher population density and industrialisation. But it also indirectly affects rural areas.
According to the study, Air pollution kills more than 7 million people every year. This is very dangerous to newborn babies, pregnant women, people suffering from respiratory diseases.
We are still more concern about outdoor air pollution but sometimes the indoor air is more polluted. Inside our house, there are many sources which emit harmful gases and chemicals which pollutes the air. The gases from electronics appliances like an air conditioner, refrigerators emit harmful CFC gases. We use domestic cleaners which contains harmful toxin chemicals. These toxins pollute the air and are harmful to breathing.
For an immediate result, we should install an air purifier in our home. An air purifier contains a series of different filters which are capable to eliminate pollutants from the air. They have a PM filter to eliminate particulate matters even smaller than 2.5 microns. Its carbon filters remove harmful toxins and gases. It will remove more than 99% of airborne particles.
But for long term effect, we should take care of our environment by planting many trees.
