Environmental pollution has become a burning issue in urban areas, especially large cities such as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Since the beginning of 2025, Hanoi has been on the list of the most polluted cities in the world for many consecutive days (according to IQAir - an air quality monitoring application worldwide).
Not only affecting the living environment, environmental pollution directly affects public health.
According to a report by the World Health Organization (WHO), air pollution is the cause of millions of premature deaths each year, at the same time increasing respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and greatly affecting the nervous system. Without timely control and mitigation measures, air pollution will continue to be a major challenge for the country's sustainable development and public health.
