In the past 30 years, air quality in the United States has declined almost exponentially. Pollution is the main reason for the declination of air quality in the United States, but there are different kinds of pollution, including light pollution, noise pollution, air pollution, water pollution, etc. Air pollution can be caused by primary or secondary pollutants. Primary pollutants include carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur oxides as well as just general particles in the air. Secondary pollutants are formed when pollutants are exposed to sunlight via chemical reactions.
