Soil pollution is an increasingly pressing environmental issue that threatens ecosystems, agriculture, and human health. Contaminated soils are often the result of industrial activities, agricultural practices, waste disposal, and urban development, leading to the presence of hazardous chemicals, heavy metals, and organic pollutants.

Wildfires have become increasingly prevalent in many parts of the world, exacerbated by climate change, land management practices, and urban development. As they rage across forests and grasslands, they release vast amounts of pollutants into the atmosphere, significantly affecting air quality.
