Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Asthma are especially vulnerable to the obviously harmful effects of air pollutants. Air pollution can cause the increase of COPD and onset of asthma, increase the respiratory morbidity and mortality.

Air pollutants such as materials from the fuel combustion can cause inflammation in lungs and further impaired the decreased pulmonary function in COPD patients.

People especially those with COPD or asthma should be aware of the air quality and take excess measures.
