A new study has found that there may be a relation of decreasing human intelligence with severe air pollution. New research has been conducted in China. Through four years of research on the 20,000 people of China, joint research by the United States and China.

Researchers believe this study is relevant worldwide. 80 percent of urban people living around the world are living in unsafe air pollution.

Mathematics and verbal tests were conducted on the victims of air pollution. Its purpose was to verify their intelligence. Researchers found that those who were suffering from air pollution did not do well in those experiments.

Although the study did not do good and there was a connection between air pollution, there was no evidence of its cause and effect. Researchers from Peking University of China and Yale University of America were included in this group.

In this study, they measured sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and small amounts of 10 micrometres in the air. But the extent of which is responsible for the three of these corrupt particles is still unclear. Carbon monoxide, weight and large particles were not included in the study. BBC Bangla has presented the information in the report.

The report says that air pollution as an invisible killer, the World Health Organization says, every year 70 million people worldwide died in infancy. Due to air pollution, Alzheimer's and memory creates a risk of illusion.

Shi Chen, a Yale School of Public Health researcher, said, "Through the samples we collected in the study, we have tried to understand the impact of air pollution on people of any age. The information we received is a new one. '

During this study, from 2010 to 2014, the test was conducted on people 10 years and above. The question was asked to identify 24 maths and 34 words to verify their intelligence.

Previous studies have shown that the intelligence of students is being damaged due to air pollution. Researchers say the results of recent research have matched with the results of previous research.

Those who suffer from air pollution may be affected by their brains in many ways. The pollutants that are in the air reach the brain with a small road. Many of the victims of pollution can also create mental problems. Many of them are suffering from stress.

Images of air pollution around the world

1. Due to air pollution, 70 million people die every year.

2. 91 percent of the world's population lives in areas where the level of air pollution is higher than the approved levels of the World Health Organization.

3. Among the 20 most polluted cities in the world, there are 14 cities in India. Kanpur city of Uttaranchal tops the list.

4. Nine out of every 10 people worldwide use contaminated air.

Researchers say that the elderly people who lack academic education are at the risk of most air pollution. Because they are often involved in various types of work outside the house.

Researchers have said that reducing the risk of air pollution is a difficult task for older people. Researchers have described this issue as a matter of concern. Because of old age, people have to make various financial decisions.

A good post for awerness against pollution. This Pollution is damaging our climate, Ozone also.

You are right. We need to solve this problem.

@khairulbrii your post shows a serious concern about pollution, it's very known fact pollution is one of the biggest thread to human civilization but we ignore it as saying what will we do. Biggest problem of the century is #pollution it may be air water or earth pollution. Even in steemit or any platform we share and show our support to antipollution but actually we do a very less action on conservation. It is also true we are very use to on using comfortable life style but we never thought about effects of it.
Your article shows a very genuine issues to these Steem community.
