Environmental Problem: Air Pollution

Air Pollution has become a growing problem the environment/earth has had to face with the introduction of man-made technology and natural sources. This particular type of pollution is made of a diverse variety of harmful materials that when introduced into Earth's atmosphere, destroys the equilibrium of our living environment. The introduction of these chemicals consequently has a negative effect on people’s health, food crops, and a big range of other living organisms. We as humans are mostly responsible with the contamination our planet by introducing the use of power plants, diesel cars, trucks, etc. and therefore we are responsible for preventing further pollution by introducing new ways of clean technology.

There are two types of air pollution that affect the environment. The Primary pollutants are emitted directly into the atmosphere from sources and can have effects as secondary pollutants. Then, there are secondary pollutants. The secondary pollutants are not directly transmitted, like primary pollutants, but chemicals react when the primary pollutants are already in the atmosphere (Learner.org, 2014). The major causes of air pollution are considering pollutant where majority of them can be assigned to man, since manufacturing is being implemented wrong in the world. One of the biggest factors are causing air pollutions are Carbon dioxide based, such as: Gasoline burning engines and power plants; and Sulfur dioxide like man made machines and natural causes. According to universe today, 2010, gasoline burning engines are the most useful carbon dioxide, since its always use in our daily life. Because of this the level of carbon dioxide or CO2 have increased 25 % than a year ago (Co2.cms.udel.edu, 2014). On the other hand, ...

...re are many other ways to help reduce air pollution. When we are at home the best way of conserving energy is turning off any electronic or light that is not being used (EPA. Gov, 2014). Also, reclining rules have been applied in the United States; recycle paper, glass bottle, cardboard reduce energy (EPA. Gov, 2014).

In conclusion, without doubt we are destroying our planet Earth without noticing. The earth itself causes natural sources that lead to air pollution and the somehow are capable to recover from those sources; Nevertheless, as human continues with the use of fossil fuels as dependence of industrialization, then our planet will be getting worse. At cause of acid rain, carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide, many people are suffering from cancer and other diseases due to the high level of contamination in the air and causing a high amount of death every year
