When it comes to pollution, I'm certain that the atmosphere is much dirtier now than it was in the past. Tashkent, for example, is ranked among the top three most polluted cities in the world. This is largely due to the increase in the number of cars on the road. Additionally, the construction of new buildings has also contributed to the problem. As a result, pollution is steadily increasing in the modern world.
