Analysis of the impacts of Motor Vehicle Exhaust Emissions at Pancasila University on health in order to create A Green Campus

Abstract

The current carbon monoxide (CO) emissions are the main component of diseases, such as cough, dizziness, nausea, and shortness of breath for those who inhale them. Pancasila University is one of the colleges in the city of Jakarta that cares about the poor quality of air in the city of Jakarta; therefore, Pancasila University wants to apply the concept of green campus as a form of concern for the environment. This research was conducted at Pancasila University to discover the relationship between air quality in the campus, especially carbon monoxide (CO) substance, and its impact on the health of the university's academic community members. The methods used in this study are simple linear regression, HIRARC, and hierarchy of control. The results of this study show a relationship between CO substance variables and complaints about diseases suffered by members of the university's academic community due to the substance, with an R count value of 0.9519. There are substantial risks that the students can experience, including student activities that cause nausea and outdoor employee activities that cause dizziness and nausea. These big risks can be prevented by issuing a decision letter to reduce air pollution at Pancasila University.
