The Role of Traffic Culture Making in Air Pollution Reduction in Metropolitans of Developing Countries

Abstract

Nowadays, environmental problems, especially air pollution issues, are one of the major problems in the metropolis of the world, whichitsside dimensions and effects are increasing day by day. According to statisticsand Information over 30% of the world's energy consumption is allocated to the transport sector, it is not therefore unthinkable that toconsidermotor vehicles asone of the main sources of air pollution.Gases from the combustion of vehicles' fuel are the most important air pollutants. Therefore, the first step in the process of reducing air pollution is to reduce vehicle traffic and also fuel consumptionreduction per vehicle navigation. In order to achieve these goals, various traffic solutions have been proposed. These include the use of traffic culturemaking tools to reduce and control air pollution. In this paper, the effects of cultural context in traffic and transportation sectorare studied, especiallythe affectionsrelated on the choice of transport mode used in urban trips to reduce air pollution, it is noticeablethat using appropriate educational methods and promoting the cultural levels of society by using various tools can greatly reduce air pollutants, especially in metropolitan areas.
