AbstractSince the on set of industrial revaluation, rapid urbanization, migration and development of public and private transport network has impetus to economic development at the cost of environment. Although such development is integral to economic growth the problem lies in their unfettered proliferation, leading to severe environmental degeneration and pollution particularly since 1970. Hence, there is an urgent need to address and assess the problem of air quality. In this paper an attempt has been made to study and discuss the impact of air pollution on human health.
