What is nitrogen dioxide pollution?
Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) pollution forms when nitrogen in the air reacts with oxygen during the high temperature combustion of fuel. High concentrations of this pollutant can lead to heart and lung problems, as well as lowering a body’s natural immune system. NO2 is a key component in producing photochemical smog and ozone pollution.
