I have the same question I’m looking for the answer
I found that from April to mid-June there's an increase in the ground level ozone which creates smog (smog is created by the emissions from vehicles and smokestacks when they come in direct with sunlight.)
Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) It comes factories, old cars from the 1900s, etc. it is a poisonous gas that comes from old engines can when breathed into the human body it can cause loss of fatigue, restlessness, anxiety, etc..
