The root cause there is that we had 20 years or so to get nitrogen (technically nitrogen oxides and ammonia) emissions under control, but instead of actually fixing it, the government tried all kind of paper tricks to make it seem as if less nitrogen was emitted. The courts finally shut that down in 2019, so now it's become an urgent problem.
