While regulatory measures play a critical role in mitigating exposure risks, individuals can also take steps to reduce their risk:
Stay Informed: Keep up-to-date with local environmental quality reports and potential exposure risks. Advocate for Stronger Regulations: Support policies and initiatives aimed at reducing industrial pollution. Practice Safe Behaviors: Use personal protective equipment (PPE) if working in industrial settings and follow safety guidelines. Reduce Personal Emissions: Adopt sustainable practices, such as reducing energy consumption and supporting eco-friendly products.
