Air pollution is a pressing global issue with significant implications for public health, the environment, and climate change. As traditional sources of air pollutants persist and new sources emerge, the need for innovative technologies and strategies to combat air pollution becomes increasingly evident. This comprehensive review article explores the latest advancements in air pollution control technologies, ranging from traditional methods such as filtration and catalytic converters to emerging solutions like nanotechnology-based interventions and artificial intelligence-driven monitoring systems. Additionally, the article examines various strategies that governments, industries, and communities are adopting to mitigate air pollution's adverse effects. Through an analysis of recent research and case studies, this review provides valuable insights into the multifaceted approaches being employed to address this critical issue and emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in achieving cleaner air for future generations.

The plastic pollution crisis has emerged as one of the most pressing environmental issues of our time, with wide-ranging impacts on ecosystems, human health, and global sustainability. This paper aims to comprehensively examine the multifaceted environmental and health effects of plastic pollution. Through an interdisciplinary approach, we analyse the sources, distribution, and persistence of plastic waste in various ecosystems. We also delve into the pathways through which micro plastics enter the food chain and subsequently affect human health. By synthesizing current research and data, this paper sheds light on the urgent need for effective mitigation strategies and policy interventions to address the plastic pollution crisis.

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is an often overlooked but critical aspect of environmental health, with profound implications for human well-being. This comprehensive article investigates the various factors influencing IAQ, explores its potential impact on human health, and highlights strategies to mitigate indoor air pollutants. Through a thorough literature review, we examine the sources of indoor pollutants, their adverse health effects, and the role of ventilation and filtration systems. By shedding light on this invisible menace, we aim to promote awareness, drive research, and encourage proactive measures to ensure healthier indoor environments.

Urban pollution poses a significant threat to groundwater quality, with potentially far-reaching consequences for both human health and the environment. This article explores the complexities of groundwater contamination in urban areas, examining the sources, pathways, and types of pollutants that infiltrate subsurface water reservoirs. By analysing innovative strategies for mitigating groundwater pollution, including improved waste management, sustainable urban planning, and advanced remediation technologies, we shed light on the potential pathways toward safeguarding this vital resource. As urbanization continues to rise, a comprehensive approach to managing and protecting groundwater becomes essential for ensuring sustainable development and the well-being of urban populations.
