“…The use of certain fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and livestock manure can also contribute to heavy metal concentrations in the soil, in urban areas, stormwater runoff can carry heavy metals from roads, buildings, and surfaces into water bodies, contributing to contamination . Industrial activities, vehicle exhaust, and other sources release heavy metals into the air, and these metals settle on land or water through atmospheric deposition (Singhal, et al, 2024) Darvanjooghi, et al, 2024). Effluents from sewage treatment plants, containing heavy metals from domestic and industrial sources, also contribute to water contamination.…”

This research looks at how the growth of cities and industries affects the levels of heavy metals in the soil, which can impact people's health. We find out where the pollution comes from, such as factories, car fumes, and improper waste disposal, by reviewing existing studies. We use different methods to test the soil for heavy metals and study how exposure to these metals in urban areas affects people's health. The evidence shows a connection between high levels of heavy metals in city soil and health problems like breathing issues, brain disorders, and overall toxicity in the body. We also explore how these metals get into the human body, highlighting the importance of understanding how they are available and the ways people are exposed. To deal with polluted city soils, we look at different ways to manage the soil and suggest sustainable methods to reduce heavy metal pollution. Our discoveries add to what we know about urban environmental health, emphasizing the need for actions to protect city residents. Ultimately, this study aims to give important information and insights to policymakers, city planners, and public health officials for managing and lessening the health risks linked to heavy metal contamination in urban soils.
