Smog can have a number of effects. First, smog can affect people with respiratory problems, like Asthma and bronchitis, by making them grow worse over time. It may contribute to lung cancer and chronic pulmonary disease as well. The oxidants of smog can cause eye irritation, increased coughing, and reduced athletic performance at a certain range. Smog can also affect agriculture because it is responsible for 2 plant diseases: smog injury and grape stipple. This can lead to serious economic consequences. Smog also causes the deterioration of materials. The first signs of it are cracking and the disintegration of stretched rubber. Paints and fabrics begin to lose their strength and color from the oxidants as well. Finally, smog can lead to decreased visibility. These are some reasons why cities are trying to reduce their smog levels.
