Environmental Chemistry Notes

Environmental chemistry deals with pollutants in the environment that can harm plants, animals, and humans. Pollutants can be solids, liquids, or gases from natural or human sources. Major gaseous pollutants in the troposphere include nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and volatile organic compounds from vehicle emissions and incomplete fuel combustion. Particulate pollutants include dust, smoke, and ash. Long-term exposure to pollutants can damage vegetation and human health.
