Methane

SOURCE:- methane can be from either natural or human activities. The natural source includes; food digestion by cattles, decay of organic materials. Human activities such as waste management, rice production, oil and gas production etc.

IMPACT:- Methane is considered a green house gas like carbon dioxide, it contributes to the trapping of heat energy in the atmosphere which causes global warming. It is also linked to serious health issues such cardiovascular, respiratory and neurological problems.

Particulates

SOURCE:- particulates are fine tiny particles of matter found in the air, it might be in solid or liquid form. Example; dust, smoke, fumes etc. This particles can suspended in the air for an extended periods of time.

IMPACT:- exposure to particulates can cause variety of respiratory health problems such as difficulties in breathing, coughing, lungs and heart problem etc.
