Atmospheric Pollution keeps the momentum of a hot topic of research from the beginning of industrial revolution. The WHO reports point out that air pollution claims 6.5 million deaths every year. The Increased level of fine particulate matter is associated with mortality and precursor of non-communicable disease epidemic makes the research more diverse and inevitable. The detrimental effect of air pollution poses a threat to babies lives and future. The diverse types of pollutants in the air across different environments make it difficult to determine the extent of air pollution. The use of rapidly disintegrating synthetic materials, fossil fuels, and pesticides coupled with the sealing of buildings for prevention of heat / cold loss resulting in indoor air pollution.
The conference organizes by School of Environmental Sciences, Mahatma Gandhi University focuses on the developmental research works on air pollution, its chemical transformation in different environment and toxicity.
