    Air pollution occurs when harmful substances are introduced into the earth’s atmosphere. It may cause diseases, allergies or death in humans. It may also cause harm to other living organisms such as animals and food crops and may also damage the natural or built environment. Human activity and natural processes can both generate air pollution. At the global level, the rapid growth in motor vehicle activity has serious energy security and climate change implications. The transport sector already consumes nearly half of the world’s oil. But in urban areas – both developing and developed countries, it is predominately mobile or vehicular pollution that contributes to air quality problem. The sources of pollutants includes emissions from the combustion of fossil fuels in motor vehicles and for industrial processes, energy production, domestic cooking and heating, and high dust levels due to local construction, smoking, unpaved roads, sweeping, hotels, restaurants and long-range transport. By this the quality of air has become so poor that, Bangalore is the result of both high emissions from the vehicles and unfavorable conditions.
