Abstract

Rad detaljno analizira utjecaj štetnih tvari koje nastaju kao rezultat cestovnog prometa s naglaskom na njihov dugoročni učinak na okoliš i ljudsko zdravlje. U radu su opisani različiti tipovi zagađivača, uključujući čestice, plinove i druge spojeve, te njihovo štetno djelovanje na ljude, biljke i životinje. Fiziološki učinci na organizme su analizirani kroz utjecaj na respiratorni sustav, ali i šire, na opće zdravstveno stanje populacije. Rad naglašava i utjecaj štetnih tvari na ekosustave, posebno kroz zakiseljavanje tla i vode. Detaljno je opisana količina zagađenja u velikim urbanim sredinama gdje je promet najintenzivniji, kao i socioekonomske posljedice za društvo. Analizirani su i pozitivni primjeri iz prakse gdje su uvedene mjere za smanjenje zagađenja poput električnih vozila, boljeg javnog prijevoza i strožih ekoloških standarda. Kroz usporedbu trenutnih podataka s prognozama za budućnost, daje se uvid u moguće scenarije razvoja cestovnog prometa i borbe protiv onečišćenja. Rad naglašava potrebu za interdisciplinarnim pristupom kako bi se postigla održiva rješenja.

Abstract (english)

The paper provides a detailed analysis of the impact of harmful substances resulting from road traffic, with an emphasis on their long-term effects on the environment and human health. The paper describes various types of pollutants, including particles, gases, and other compounds, as well as their harmful effects on humans, plants, and animals. The physiological effects on organisms are analyzed through the impact on the respiratory system, but also more broadly on the overall health of the population. The paper also highlights the impact of harmful substances on ecosystems, particularly through soil and water acidification. The level of pollution in large urban areas, where traffic is most intense, is thoroughly described, along with the socioeconomic consequences for society. Positive examples from practice are analyzed, where measures to reduce pollution have been implemented, such as electric vehicles, improved public transport, and stricter environmental standards. By comparing current data with future projections, the paper provides insights into possible scenarios for the development of road traffic and the fight against pollution. The paper emphasizes the need for an interdisciplinary approach to achieve sustainable solutions.
