Business owners can take a variety of steps to reduce air pollution from their activities.  First, switch to energy-efficient lightbulbs that use less electricity but provide the same amount of light. Additionally, businesses should ensure that their machinery and vehicles are properly maintained to reduce emissions. It may also be beneficial for businesses to encourage carpooling or switching to Eco-friendly transportation options, such as bicycle or electric cars for employees. Finally, recycling and composting waste materials can help minimize the impact on landfills created by non-biodegradable materials.

1. Measure your current emissions: Start by measuring the air pollutants being released from your business. You can use an emission monitor or consult an air quality consultant to get detailed readings of all emissions.
2. Reduce non-renewable resources: Consider using renewable and sustainable resources, instead of buying items produced from limited sources such as fossil fuels or trees.
3. Implement energy efficiency: Look for ways to conserve energy on your premises and look for cost-effective options that reduce energy use while still achieving optimal productivity levels. 
4. Make informed product choices: When possible, opt for environmentally friendly products when procuring supplies, tools and equipment – research their carbon footprints so you can make greener decisions when purchasing materials, spare parts and raw ingredients .  
5 Adopt clean technologies whenever possible – invest in green upgrades like solar power systems or modern filtration systems that will help capture harmful gases in the production process before they reach the atmosphere  .  6 Utilize waste management protocols– create thorough plans which outline methods on how to properly dispose of materials, fluids , waste gases etc.,so nothing goes unaccounted for as wastes can be harmful to the environment if not disposed of safely   7 Educate your staff– have staff involved who will ensure that all guidelines regarding protecting our environment are strictly enforced at every level of operations   8 Follow regulations diligently – adhere to local legislative requirements regarding pollutants control since governments also have specific laws in place protecting their communities against air pollution  .    9 Participate in companywide activities which promote environmental responsibility– conduct regular outreach activities where employees participate together so environmental matters are given priority
