Air pollution is the contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by any chemical, physical, or biological agent that alters the natural characteristics of the atmosphere. Household combustion appliances, automobiles, industrial facilities, and forest fires are common sources of air pollution. Pollutants of major public health concern include particulate matter, carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide. Outdoor and indoor air pollution causes respiratory and other diseases and is a significant source of morbidity and mortality. World Health Organization data indicate that nearly the entire world's population (99%) breathes air that exceeds WHO guidelines and contains high levels of pollutants. Low- and middle-income countries have the highest exposure levels. Air quality is intricately linked to the Earth's climate and ecosystems globally. Many causes of air pollution (i.e., combustion of fossil fuels) are also sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, policies to reduce air pollution provide a dual-benefit climate and health strategy, reducing the disease burden attributable to air pollution and contributing to mitigating the effects of climate change in the short and long term.

Industrial waste from factories is unavoidable. The ways factories manage that waste affect the surrounding environment as well as human health. If not disposed of properly, industrial waste can contaminate soil, air, and water. But there are points throughout a factory’s lifespan and its entire production process where changes can be made to reduce the pollution they produce and ensure proper precautions are in place to protect the environment around them. The best way to reduce pollution in important ecosystems is to keep them from harm’s way in the first place. When new industrial sites are being built, it is important to factor in the location and the potential impact the site would have on the surrounding environment. Characteristics such as climate and topography significantly affect how pollutants spread, and these factors also need to be considered. As we continue to build factories and industrial sites, making smart decisions about their locations can help reduce the impacts of the unavoidable waste that comes from the factory.

We can reduce air pollution from industries or factories by using public transport to travel, increasing the efficiency of equipment to consume less energy, and opting for natural gas. Nowadays, environmental pollution has become a critical issue due to the increased demand for products and development. Due to deforestation and industrialization, air quality is constantly degrading year on year. Any type of air pollution that has sources of industrial activities is known as industrial air pollution. Cutting down on air pollution is the first step to going green. Industrial air pollution is a major source of total environmental air pollution. We can reduce air pollution by conserving energy by turning off lights, computers, air conditioners, and other appliances when not in use.

We can reduce air pollution by conserving energy by turning off lights, computers, air conditioners, and other appliances when not in use. Encourage your employees to use public transportation, or you can arrange a bus from a common point for your employees. When purchasing a vehicle for your company, consider purchasing the most efficient, least polluting electric vehicle or zero-emission electric vehicle if possible. Encourage employees to use bicycles for daily commuting. Ensure that drivers in your company adhere to traffic laws and speed limits, maintain vehicles properly, and maintain proper air pressure in tires. Replace the bulbs in your factory with energy-efficient bulbs. Be environmentally friendly by reducing the use of paper, as it may save some trees. Choose items made from recycled materials. Encourage teleconferencing instead of physical meetings. Encourage activities such as planting trees once a year among employees. Give awards to employees who have reduced emissions during their shifts. Improve machinery or manufacturing processes to reduce emissions from factories.
