ABSTRACT

While clean air is the best input for a healthy life, a balanced environment is the best place to live. The right to breathe clean air is unalienable, but industrialization has accelerated the decline in air quality. Life itself is being destroyed by environmental degradation. And the importance of economic development has put environmental sustainability on the back burner. The release of industrial exhaust and maintaining clean air are perpetually at odds. Lack of proper disposal regulation increases the severity of being harmed by air pollutants. Untreated gas leakage contributes to environmental pollution and lowers air quality.

 A non-doctrinal research methodology is used to assess the effects of such gas leakage in an area that is predominately populated by children and elders. This study examines the effective implementation of environmental laws in the nation with a focus on sustainable development policies for reducing air pollution. Additionally, it suggests actions to improve air pollution and gas leakage regulations and implement the precautionary principle.

Keywords: Industrialization, polluter-pays principle, precautionary principle, gas leaks, and air.
