| Description | Air quality concerns come in three forms: public health, environment, and quality of life. Air pollution causes lung disease and worsens existing respiratory and cardiopulmonary disease, sometimes hastening death for persons afflicted with such diseases. It increases chronic respiratory illness, increases the overall death rate, increases the likelihood of contracting cancer, and decreases lung function in children. Hundreds of studies find that short and long-term exposures to air pollution can result in serious health concerns. |
