Reducing pollution is important for human health, the environment, and the economy: 1.Human health Poor air quality can cause cardiovascular and respiratory disease, cancers, and other health problems. In 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that 4.2 million people died prematurely from outdoor air pollution. 2,Environmental damage Air pollution can damage plants, forests, soil, and aquatic life. It can also contribute to climate change by reducing the ability of forests to absorb carbon dioxide. 3.Economic impact Air pollution can cost the global economy more than $5 trillion per year in welfare costs and lost income. It can also degrade materials and coatings, which can lead to additional costs for cleaning, repair, and replacement. 4.Economic growth Pollution prevention can strengthen economic growth by making production more efficient and reducing the need for waste management and cleanup.
