One standard approach for examining the health effects of multiple
pollutants is to include each
pollutant as an independent risk factor simultaneously in a single epidemiologic model (Bell et al.
Reviewing of the PM10 and CO for selected stations in Tehran at the annually scale indicated that
pollutants have been increased in Geophysics station during the years 2007 and 2009 and they have decreased form the years 2009 to 2013.
This study fuels the concept that
pollutants may contribute to the current prevalence of chronic diseases including metabolic diseases and diabetes.

Do-it-yourself test kits for some
pollutants are available at major stores and EPA offices, says Darneille.
With specially designed gross
pollutant samplers, researchers could collect load samples during runoff events and construct a "pollutograph" for gross
pollutants that could be compared to the storm hydrograph.
Trees have the power to change the temperature and humidity of the air, intercept rainfall and capture
pollutants, and mediate chemical exchanges between the soil and the atmosphere.
Though these must be at least as stringent as the EPA plan, SPI expects that many state programs will be even more stringent Some states, for example, have gone beyond the EPA's air toxics list to include acetone, while others have defined a major source as a facility emitting only 1 TPY of listed
pollutant.

Air pollution contributes significantly to global increases in mortality, particularly in urban environments, but the mechanisms underlying health effects resulting from exposure to
pollutant mixtures are uncertain.
However, because many people have compromised immune systems, Lave says that before raising the acceptable environmental limits of a
pollutant, "I'd want to know if we see a [beneficial] hormetic response in those people, or babies with undeveloped immune systems, or the elderly.
