What are some health risks that air pollution brings?


respiratory diseases? lung cancer?

well i live in Los angeles and we have one of the highes asthma rates in the country. not only that but supposedly the air in LA is like smoking a pack of ciggarettes a week. so if that doesnt answer your question i dont know what will. Just think of this though, we need air to live, and if the air is bad were not gonna be living very well.

Acid rain.....Um it can pollute ground water, which can kill you. If that helps any..

I know one risk that it causes for sure and that is allergies. When I moved to a bigger city, with more factories, I developed more allergies. It can cause respitory issues and cancer, well that is proven via cigarettes already wich is part of air pollution.
