Smog:

  • The term smog was first coined during the 1905s .
  • It is used to describe a mixture of smoke and fog experienced in London.
  • Major cities along the west coast of America were also experiencing a different type of air pollution.
  • Smog occurs when emissions from industry, motor vehicles, incinerators, open burning, and other sources accumulate under certain climatic conditions.
  • There are two types of smog: summer (the type of smog first experienced in America) and winter (the one first noticed in London).
  • Smog is made up of many chemicals including nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulphur dioxide (SOx), carbon monoxide (CO), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), but the two main components of smog are particulate matter (PM) and sulphur compounds.
