(b)urbanization is another factor which creates air pollution, constructional work is also ,
(c)due to the transportation harmful gases are coming out which mix up with environment Harmful gases like corbon dioxide, dust ,smokes e.t.c released from industries and vehicals pollute the air.
• Forest fire and dust generally pollutr the rular area.
• especially sulfur dioxide, a chemical compound with the formula SO2. SO2 is produced by volcanoes and in various industrial processes. Since coal and petroleum often contain sulfur compounds, their combustion generates sulfur dioxide.

• This reddish-brown toxic gas has a characteristic sharp, biting odor. NO2 is one of the most prominent air pollutants.
• Other hydrocarbon also significant greenhouse gases via their role in creating ozone and in prolonging the life of methane in the atmosphere, although the effect varies depending on local air quality.
• Human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels in vehicles, power plants and various industrial processes also generate significant amounts of aerosols.
• Classic smog results from large amounts of coal burning in an area caused by a mixture of smoke and sulfur dioxide
• Smoke and carbon monoxide room
• Volcanic activity, which produce sulfur, chlorine, and ash particulates
• Dust from natural sources, usually large areas of land with little or no vegetation.
• Methane, emitted by the digestion of food by animals, for example cattle
