Abstract :
This study investigates the impact of oil-using
transports on air pollution levels in Madurai town. By
analyzing vehicular density, fuel consumption, and
emission factors, the research quantifies the contribution
of different vehicle types to air pollution. Spatial analysis
of pollutants and correlation with air quality indices
identify critical pollution hotspots. This study focuses its
attention mainly on analysing the air pollution caused by
automobiles in Madurai town. Air pollution caused by
automobiles is so high. Environmental issue is also a
basic social issue similar on untouchability, illiteracy,
child and women exploitation and bonded labour. The
solution to the problem requires technological efforts
and social responsibility of all concerned. Education
becomes the main media, which can create awareness
regarding the utilisation of human resources for
environmental monitoring. The findings inform the
development of targeted mitigation strategies to improve
air quality and public health in Madurai.
