This book reviews air pollution, discussing its far-reaching impacts and presenting sustainable strategies to effectively address and mitigate these challenges. The book explores how addressing air pollution is in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, specifically SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), and SDG 13 (Climate Action). In this book, readers will find in-depth discussions on the effects of air pollution on human health, ecosystems, and the environment, underscoring the urgent need for effective mitigation strategies and the critical role of air pollution in driving climate change.
The book also examines the economic impacts of air pollution and the disproportionate burden it places on vulnerable populations, emphasizing the importance of equitable public health policies and the necessity of social justice in pollution control efforts. Furthermore, this work presents sustainable strategies for managing air quality, stressing their significance for both human health and climate benefits. It provides an authoritative analysis of the policies and regulations crucial to achieving clean air, highlighting their role in reducing the adverse effects of air pollution on public health. Special attention is given to the latest technologies and innovations designed to mitigate air pollution. Together with its companion volume, "Air Pollutants in the Context of the One Health Approach: Fundamentals, Sources, and Impacts," this book serves as an essential resource for researchers, policymakers, students, and all those dedicated to tackling the complex challenges posed by air pollution and its far-reaching consequences for human health, the environment, and global sustainability.
