👉 The Brisbane Fumes refer to a recurring issue of high levels of air pollution, primarily caused by traffic congestion and industrial activities in the city. This phenomenon is particularly noticeable during peak hours when large numbers of vehicles, including trucks and buses, contribute significantly to the release of pollutants like nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and volatile organic compounds into the atmosphere. These pollutants can lead to smog formation, reducing air quality and posing health risks to residents, especially those with respiratory conditions. Efforts to mitigate the Brisbane Fumes include promoting public transportation, encouraging carpooling, implementing stricter emission standards for vehicles, and urban planning initiatives aimed at reducing traffic congestion.
