摘要

Vehicular emissions generally include oxides of nitrogen, sulphur, carbon hydrocarbon, mercury and leads. The effects of vehicular emissions on human health, vegetations, and environments were investigated in three locations of Lagos (Oshodi, Mushin and Apapa), Nigeria while a fourth location (Fola Agoro) was used as a control since it has low levels of pollution. The investigation was carried out with the use of questionnaires and laboratory experiments. Experiments were conducted on rainwater collected from each location to determine the level of acidity, pH, and the presence of dissolved substances such as NO3, SO4 and CO2 in them. Physical effects on vegetations, buildings and structures were also observed. The results obtained from questionnaire show that on the average, 28.3%, 16.6%, 23.3%, 18.3%, 13.3% were respectively affected by sleeplessness, running nose, heavy eyes, asthmatic attack, and headache respectively. The location (distance from the coast type of fuel, availability of industries, and concentration of traffic) determine the impacts of these emissions on the ecosystem.
