How could using less electricity help to reduce air pollution?

Using less electricity reduces the demand for energy production, which often leads to a decrease in burning fossil fuels such as coal or gas. Burning these fuels releases pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, into the atmosphere, contributing to air pollution and smog. By reducing electricity usage, less pollutants are emitted, resulting in improved air quality.
