London, the capital of the United Kingdom, is notorious for air pollution. In fact, the word smog was first used in 1905 to describe the air in London. Smog is air pollution caused by sunlight acting on gases from automobile and factory exhausts. It sometimes hangs over cities in the United Kingdom. .
