Question

State power of Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) to control the Air pollution.

Answer 1

The earth's temperature is increased by air emissions in the form of methane and carbon dioxide. The additional heat then worsens another kind of air pollution: when the weather is colder and there is more ultraviolet radiation, smog forms. The development of allergenic air pollutants like mold and pollen is also growing due to climate change.

Complete Answer:
The Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) is enforcing numerous environmental laws in the state of Maharashtra, including, in particular, the Water Act, 1974, the Air Act, 1981, 1977 the Water (Cess) Act, and some of the sections of the Environmental (Protection) Act, 1986 and the regulations set out therein, such as the Biomedical Waste (M & Waste) Act, 1977. The role of the MPCB is to inspect treatment and disposal facilities for sewage or commercial effluent and air pollution control processes and to evaluate plans, specifications or any details related to treatment plants, waste disposal and air pollution control mechanisms in the context of the consent granted.

Any of the essential MPCB functions are:
- To plan a systematic policy for the prevention, regulation or elimination of emissions and for its safe operation.
- To compile and disseminate information concerning pollution and its prevention, regulation or elimination.
- Supporting and fostering advances in the areas of pollution reduction, conservation of waste, environmentally sustainable activities, etc.
- Educating and directing entrepreneurs to develop the atmosphere by recommending suitable technologies and strategies for emission control.
- Growing general awareness of the safe and safe atmosphere and listening to general emissions grievances.

Note: Hazardous air pollutants are either lethal or, even in limited concentrations, have significant health risks. About 200 are governed by legislation; lead, arsenic, benzene, and dioxins, are some of the most popular. They are often most commonly released during the burning of gas or coal, incineration, or, in the situation of benzene, in gasoline.
