Well.. there is no purpose of snot i don't think, but rather it is a kind of bi-product from all the dust and stuff that shouldn't be in your lungs. Dust and stuff goes up your nose from breathing and it gets stuck in the nose hairs and the mucus stuff (i guess that is snot).. so yeah, more snot is created depending on the amount of dust, so more dust, more snot.. that is why when you sneeze (supposing it was from dust or other stuff) you end up with a running nose or more accumulation of the mucus (snot)

Well that's what i think it is, but could be wrong.Health Question & Answer
