How the epidemic affects smog? The COVID-19 pandemic has reduced smog and improved air quality. Because of precautions, people drive cars less. Also air transport has been limited. This helped to reduce the amount of exhaust gas in the air. In addition, many factories were closed for some time, so that pollution and toxic gases did not get into the air. Many offices and buildings were also closed, so they did not have to be heated. And as you know, heating installations are the biggest problem in the fight against smog. Jakub
