Air pollution refers to the presence of harmful or undesirable substances in the atmosphere that disrupt the natural quality of the air and have a negative impact on the environment, human health, and living organisms. This category includes a wide range of chemical, physical, and biological agents such as particulate matter, gases, vapors, and microbial organisms.

In the image collection dedicated to air pollution, visual evidence of various sources and consequences of this phenomenon can be found. Industrial enterprises with smokestacks emitting smoke and pollutants into the atmosphere are often depicted. The collection also features a variety of transportation means, including cars and airplanes, which contribute significantly to air quality degradation through exhaust gases.

Photos may show visual phenomena associated with pollution, such as smog and haze, which alter the color and transparency of the air in urban and industrial areas. Regional characteristics of air pollution are reflected in images of different landscapes—from densely populated megacities to agricultural regions where pesticides are used and biomass is burned.

Special attention is given to the visualization of impurities: solid particles of various sizes (e.g., dust, soot), gaseous pollutants (nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon oxides, volatile organic compounds), and their interactions with atmospheric conditions. The collection also includes images of natural factors affecting the spread of pollution, such as wind, temperature, humidity, and terrain.

The images cover a variety of temporal and seasonal variations in pollution: changes in concentrations and types of pollutants affecting air quality at different times of the day and year. Some photos demonstrate pollution control measures and improvements in the ecological situation—such as installation of filters, urban green spaces, and other elements of natural and technical environments.

Thus, the image collection related to air pollution represents a multifaceted reflection of complex processes and phenomena affecting the atmosphere and quality of life, encompassing both natural conditions and anthropogenic impacts.
