Atmospheric pollution represents a growing problem air pollution in Madagascar. Despite its exceptional biodiversity, the island faces increasingly worrying environmental challenges linked to air quality. Emissions from industrial activities, transportation and agricultural practices have increased significantly, directly impacting the health of residents and Madagascar's unique biological diversity. This study examines in depth the specific sources of air pollution in the Malagasy context, assesses its repercussions on public health and the ecosystem, and proposes strategic recommendations to mitigate these effects while promoting sustainable development. The results of this research aim to raise awareness of the issues of air pollution in Madagascar and to guide future actions to preserve the air quality and natural wealth of the island.
