Air pollution and declining air quality are significant contributors to the heightened susceptibility of individuals to allergic rhinitis on a global scale. While genetic factors are significantly associated with respiratory vulnerability to inhalant allergens, pollution is emerging as a major environmental factor in allergy. Many countries are taking proactive steps to reduce pollution and safeguard public health. The European Environment Agency provides real-time information on air quality using the Air Quality Index, which is an accessible source for monitoring environmental quality.
