Answer 1

Automobiles

Explanation:

Vehicle (automobile) exhaust is the single largest contributor to air pollution, it releases CO, unburnt hydrocarbons, NOx, and particulate matter, and in many urban settings, vehicular emissions account for the biggest share of pollutants (the sources note vehicles are responsible for the largest portion of urban air pollution, in some cases cited as over 75–80%).
