The issue come down to what is pollution? If we are talking about industrial waste that is not treated or neutralized in any way, the third world countries are the worst offenders. India and China would top that list.
China produces more air pollution then any three other countries. The only one where their is any competition is with CO2. This is not considered a pollutant by most science groups, but politically it is a current topic. (politics always trumps science). China produces 27.3% and the USA produces 24.8%. France has cleaned up most of it's CO2 pollution by installing many new nuclear power plants.
This, quite naturally, make France the leader in Nuclear waste, which is not a pollution, but a waste management issue.
China.
Uruguay is between the 20 countries with lowest air pollution. :)
air pollution travels in the air
Developed countries should worry about the air pollution more. They should try to minimize the pollutants releasing into the air.
Air pollution and plastic pollution go hand in hand, here in Pakistan. but Pakistan recycles way more then most of the big countries!
it spreads from one place to another and continue it.
it is not that bad! it's a livable place! you do not suffer at all!
China, who accounts for 1/4 of the world's CO2 emissions.
The first air pollution became problematic as countries such as England and the United States became industrialized. Prior to that time, wood fires constituted the main sources of air pollution.
Humans create the most air pollution. Power plants are known to create the most pollution in most areas of the world.
In general the Eastern European countries such as Bulgaria and Romania are worst, especially for air pollution.
I am personally opposed to air pollution because I breathe the air, and if it is polluted, my health is going to suffer. There are also very urgent concerns about global warming, which is affected by air pollution. I also do not like my food and beverages to be adulterated.
