摘要:Pollution is one of the serious problem in the world. There are different types of pollution. Pollutionaffects on Environment Degradation, Human Health, Global Warming, Ozone Layer Depletion, and Infertile Land.Vehicles are one of the main causes of air pollution. It is known fact that 60 % of air pollution in metro city is causedby automobilesonly. Vehicles releases Particular matter (PM), Hydrocarbons (HC), Nitrogen oxides (NOx), Carbonmonoxide (CO), Sulphur dioxide (SO2), Toxics, Greenhouse gases into the air. The effect of these pollutants isobserved on plants which are considers for investigation of effect of auto exhaust pollutants on road side trees. Plantsare one of the natural solution to reduce air pollution.This Paper states work that is done on different trees at different places for analyse the effects of air pollution on treeleaves. The all author is used air pollution tolerance index (APTI) method to measure plants responses towards airpollution. The four properties of leaves are considered namely ascorbic acid content, relative water content, totalchlorophyll content and leaf extract pH for determine APTI value. Also study shows APTI value of same plants is varyaccording to area which is polluted or control area and seasons.
