Industrial Pollution Case Study

Industrial pollution is one if not the largest contributor to the global problem endangering people and the environment. Big cities with steel mills, power plants, heating plants, or railroad stations feel the direct impact of industrial pollution. Countries like China have tried endless ways to decreased the hazardous effects that factories have created. China has developed air purifiers to limits the exposure to pollutants when indoors, but tackling this kind of pollutants outdoors is almost impossible. Domes are known for their enclosing system and adding air purifiers to them could help many countries like China to eradicate smog making the environment a healthier place for everyone.

China’s economy, has exploited natural resources in ways that contributed to famines and natural disasters, and has come at the expense of its environment and public health. Life expectancy north of the Huia River is 5.5 lower than in the south due to air pollution (life expectancy in China is 75.3 per 2013 UN). The international School of Beijing built a $5 million dome to enclose a playground and filter the air (CBS news). Whether it is expensive or not, China and some countries in the world must considered invest in domes purifiers, as they will reduce tremendously the

Smog and other pollutants might not be as hazardous as they are now. Levels of diseases and birth-rate could rise and China can become a stable and healthy country again. Factories and industries would not try to take advantage of their illegal practices since there is a law and a system that they must follow. But the purifiers domes are not just a way to handled pollution in China, but in some way, it could become a pollutant as well. As they could provide a solution to a problem it may become an issue too. The purifier dome would be made of glass, and that means that glass factories would produce more glass than ever before, and glass is a huge pollutant to the
