air pollution and respiratory diseases

Air pollution refers to the presence of harmful substances in the air, primarily caused by human activities and natural processes. Respiratory diseases, on the other hand, are disorders that affect the human respiratory system, including the lungs and airways. Air pollution can contribute to the development and worsening of respiratory diseases, as inhaling polluted air can irritate and damage the respiratory organs, leading to various respiratory ailments such as asthma, bronchitis, and lung cancer.
