Abstract

Pakistan is vulnerable to smog from the last two to three years especially in winter season and it produces haze in the atmosphere which is ultimately vanishing due to rain and it badly affects the public.Smog is related to air pollution and it causes eyes, nose, lung, throat infection which is allergic one and spread rapidly and causes fever and skin diseases.In this article number of factors and reason behind that are vehicle emission, urbanization and burning of waste are discussed and how to mitigate and prevent our atmosphere.So there is a need to copeup this problem through long term planning that is better for the public and for our future generation.
