Mountains are a source of good quality air, flora and fauna, and freshwater.
Away from the chaotic city life, people come here to spend their holidays. Thus, leading to an increase in mountain tourism.
This results in air pollution in mountains and hence monitoring air quality in mountains becomes important. Contributing factors of Air Pollution in Mountains.

The speedy increase in tourism has resulted in an increase of CO2 emissions too. Heavy-duty trucks used for freight transport emit toxic gases like Nitrogen oxide, Carbon monoxide. PM2.5, PM10 emissions are also increased because of these trucks. As tourism increases, garbage volume collected to increases. Harmful pollutants like Methane, CO2 and unpleasant odour are released in the air due to contamination and burning of this garbage. Benefits of Good Mountain Air. 

A good mountain air promotes the general well-being of a person. It contains less pollutants than that compared to city air. Also, it helps in reducing stress-related illnesses like depression, anxiety. Just inhaling the smell of mountain trees supports a good respiratory system. Life expectancy is higher in the mountain region than in the city.
How does Oizom help in monitoring air quality in mountains? Partnering with MeaTech, Oizom’s Dustroid monitors vehicular pollution in Almora Hills.
Real-time data collected helped authorities in understanding the trend of particulate matter pollution. Also, authorities were able to manage tourists and reduce vehicular emissions causing minimum adverse effects to health, flora, and fauna.
