Poor air quality affects both people and animals, which shows how important it is to keep our air, water, and soil clean for everyone. Here are some of the problems caused by bad air quality:

1. Health Problems for People:

   • More people get sick with breathing issues like asthma and bronchitis.
   • There are more heart diseases due to dirty air.
   • If someone breathes polluted air for a long time, it can lead to serious conditions like lung cancer or health problems for children as they grow.

2. Effects on Wildlife:

   • Animals that breathe polluted air may feel stressed and have trouble having babies. Some may even die sooner.
   • As air quality gets worse, it hurts their homes, making it harder for animals to survive and leading to fewer of some species.

3. Impact on Plants:

   • Dirty air can hurt how plants make food (photosynthesis), affecting their growth and the food we all rely on.
   • Poor air also damages the soil, which affects everything around it.

Even though these challenges are serious, there are ways to help:

• Stricter Rules: Making laws that limit how much pollution industries and cars can produce can improve air quality.
• Community Awareness: Teaching people about what makes the air dirty and encouraging them to adopt eco-friendly habits can lead to cleaner air for everyone.
• Better Technology: Using renewable energy and green technology can greatly reduce air pollution.

In short, while bad air quality is a big problem, taking positive steps can help reduce its impact. We can create healthier environments for both people and wildlife by working together.
