A very serious problem we and the Earth is suffering from is air pollution. What is air pollution? It's when harmful gases enter the air and causes illness and diseases to humans, animals, and plants. Three components that are causing this are bad traffic, growing cities, and fast economis developement.
When was the last time you heard the phrase "I'm going out to get some air" or "I need some air"? Many people don't really know that the "fresh air they're taking in is actually car, motorcycle, scooter, bus exhaust.
There's also something called indoor pollution. Indoor air pollution is a concern in countries, where changig the energy sometimes make houses get too airless and the different chemicals used around the house causes it to be polluted, and people living in that household may sooner or later experience lung problems.
To reduce air pollution you can:
*Encourage your family to walk to the neighbourhood market.
*Whenever possible take your bicycle.
*Don’t let your parents drop you to school, take the school bus.
*Encourage your family to form a car pool.
*Reduce the use of spray cans at home.
*Look after the trees in your neighbourhood.
*Switch-off all the lights and fans when not required.
*If possible share your room with others when the airconditioner, cooler or fan is on.
*Do not burn leaves in your garden, put them in a compost pit.
*Make sure that the pollution check for your family car is done regularly.
