“What happens when air remains static in an area for a long period of time?”

 

Air usually becomes fresher through precipitation and movement from one area to another. However, if air is stuck in a certain region for a long amount of time, it turns into Stagnant Air. This often leads to air pollution due to the fact that pollutants become trapped.
