In following study the researchers tried to identify the environmental harms of vehicle exhaust that affect human populations. Their goal with this information is to educate and inform the people and in specific the public and private officials to promote policies in all sectors that ensure the protection of human and environmental health.
Out of the research the scientist believe that the nation faces an epidemic of illnesses that are exacerbated by air pollution. These illnesses include cardiovascular disease, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer, and diabetes. At special risk are children, the elderly and those with compromised immune systems. During the past decade, scientists have confirmed a relationship between two forms of air pollution (ozone and particulate matter) and increased rates of mortality.
I personally think that this is a problem that has a big impact on our generation and generations that will follow us. Do you think that we should be better informed about the impact this has on our health or is it general knowledge? And how should we avoid some exposure to these toxic exhaust gases? Is it mostly the responsibility of our governments to make stricter policies for car manufacturers and drivers?

The problem with telling the people that those gasses are bad for your health is that there is no alternative. Yes we can buy a new car that does pollute less, or maybe even an electric car. But most people don’t have the money.
The government is doing something about it: on days when there are too much fine particles, is a smog alarm. And there is an idea to only let cars that were built after 2000, in the centre of Antwerp.
