What are the different types of air pollution? How does each of these types of air pollution affect human health and the environment? What some ways to control air pollution? Industrial smog is the black-brown colored haze that is in the air that can be seen over some cities. It is mostly visible in the summer. Burning coal produces sulfur dioxide (SO2) that eventually ends up into our atmosphere. Photochemical Smog is air pollution containing ozone and other reactive chemical compounds formed
