What is PM 2.5 in air pollution?
PM 2.5 refers to atmospheric particulate matter (PM) that have diameters of less than 2.5 micrometers, so small that these particles are able to be detected only with an electron microscope. These particles are what contribute to air pollution and can occur from a variety of sources, examples include motor vehicles, exhaust fumes, power plants or waste burning.
When it comes to air pollution, a lot of us tend to overlook its significance, especially as it is invisible to the naked eye, though long term exposure, particularly among the urban population, can result in negative health effects. Not only do these particles penetrate our lungs via our respiratory tracts, they are so small they are able to penetrate also our skins.
