Vespasiano's air quality is shaped by the northern Belo Horizonte metropolitan basin's poor dispersal, with vehicle emissions from the MG-010 contributing elevated PM2.5. The enclosed basin's winter inversions concentrate emissions, particularly during the dry season months when the Minas Gerais highland inversions are most persistent.
