Riyadh is experiencing rapid urban and population growth, leading to an increase and diversification of activities across the city. This growth is accompanied by a range of environmental challenges, most notably air pollution and noise pollution. In response, an integrated monitoring system is being implemented, comprising programs and projects to monitor and track sources of air and noise pollution across the city in real time. This supports the implementation of necessary measures to mitigate their impacts, protect the environment, and enhance quality of life.
Air pollution occurs when harmful particulate matter or gases build up in the air at levels that threaten human health and the environment. It is considered one of the greatest global environmental health risks, strongly linked to respiratory issues, heart disease, strokes, and certain types of cancer.
