This picture is an example of some of the intensely polluted conditions in this city, and how emissions from cars can cause smog, which sticks to dust particles and makes driving difficult and the visibility levels do decrease dramatically. Industry also soils the air with polluting particulate matter, or PM10s, which are extremely small pollutants which gather and create the smog displayed to the left.
