Air pollution affects everyone equally.

True or false?

Asked by Deirdre233

Answer (3)

This is false. For one, air pollution has varying densities around the world. While in some places it can be very bad, in other places it is nearly non-existent. Also, some people react differently than others. For example, as was explained, someone with asthma is going to have a much harder time in polluted areas than someone with healthier lungs.

False people who have asthma can be affected more and people with weak lungs or larger pores

Air pollution does not affect everyone equally; its impacts vary significantly based on geography, individual health conditions, age, and social factors. Vulnerable populations, including children and those with pre-existing health issues, may experience more severe effects. Additionally, systemic issues can lead to certain communities facing greater exposure to pollution.
