Abstract: (World Health Organization).Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that forms from the decay of uranium present in rocks, soil, and water. It is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, making it impossible to detect without specialized instruments. Although radon is present everywhere in small amounts, it becomes dangerous when it accumulates in enclosed spaces such as homes, schools, and workplaces. In modern society, where people spend a large portion of their time indoors, radon exposure has become a significant environmental health concern. According to the World Health Organization, radon can build up in buildings and damage lung tissue when inhaled over long periods, making it a silent but serious threat to public health.
