Health Implications of Air Pollution
Although an old problem, air pollution has been the subject of increasing research because of the realization of its health implications. Studies have linked air pollution with loss of well-being or illness and have further shown that specific topographical and meteorological conditions may result in fatal concentrations of air-borne poisons. Reduction of the pollution load is not always economically feasible with available devices, but research and restriction should aid in the solution of the problem.
Industry as well as government must take steps to clean the atmosphere. The engineer in industry will play an important role in reducing the pollution load. On the governmental side, agencies already in existence have personnel which are qualified to assume responsiblity for this problem.
