Air pollution can cause the following serious effects on the environment:
1. Deforestation and fuel consumption bring about rise in CO2 concentration.
2. Excess CO2 in air causes rise in atmospheric temperature of the earth.
3. The increased temperature is called global warming.
4. The global warming results into melting of glaciers, subsequently causing rise in the sea level.
5. There is a change in the climate and pattern of rainfall. This may indirectly affect the agricultural production.
