pesticides and particularly herbicides may cause chlorosis, both to target weeds and occasionally to the crop being treated. [6] exposure to sulphur dioxide [7] ozone injury to sensitive plants ; presence of any number of bacterial pathogens, for instance Pseudomonas syringae pv. tagetis that causes complete chlorosis on Asteraceae [8]
Diseases caused by pollution, lead to the chronic illness and deaths of about 8.4 million people each year. However, pollution receives a fraction of the interest from the global community. [1] This is in part because pollution causes so many diseases that it is often difficult to draw a straight line between cause and effect.

Symptoms will often appear overnight, affecting many types of plants. Leaves and stems may turn black, and buds and flowers may be discoloured, and frosted blooms may not produce fruit. Many annual plants, or plants grown in frost free areas, can suffer from damage when the air temperature drops below 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius).
Indoor air pollution can be caused by cooking and appliance use, cleaning solutions, pet dander, pollen and other allergens coming in from the environment. Short-term symptoms can include ...
Researchers have found that the training of one large language model — like Meta's Llama 3.1 — would generate as much air pollution as a car driving round trip from New York to Los Angeles ...
Looking down from the Hollywood Hills, with Griffith Observatory on the hill in the foreground, air pollution is visible in downtown Los Angeles on a late afternoon.. Air pollution is the introduction of chemicals, particulate matter, or biological materials into the atmosphere that cause harm or discomfort to humans or other living organisms, or damage ecosystems.
