Answer:

It is a simile

Step-by-step explanation:

A simile is a comparison using like or as. In this sentence the "everywhere-ness" of pollution is being compared to how "air" is everywhere as well.

it sounds like a simile because it's comparing two completely different things but it also sounds like an analogy- a comparison between two things. but I'm thinking it's more of an analogy. hope I'm right good luck
