What can result from poor emissions control in vehicles?

When emissions control in vehicles is inadequate, it can lead to higher levels of air pollution. Poor emissions control systems fail to properly filter and reduce harmful pollutants released into the atmosphere. This can include particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and volatile organic compounds, all of which contribute to environmental degradation and adverse health effects.

Increased air pollution can lead to serious public health issues, such as respiratory problems and cardiovascular diseases, and can also contribute to broader environmental problems like climate change and ecosystem disruption. Given the importance of emissions control in protecting both public health and the environment, the consequences of inadequate systems are significant and far-reaching.
