Today we will touch once again on the very serious topic of air pollution. Why do we do so little in this direction to improve our breathing and where does this bad air come from.

Natural sources.

Many people think that man alone is the source of air pollution. However, nature also has its negative effects. For example, when volcanoes erupt or a nearby forest burns.

Antripogenic sources.

Of course, humans are the main culprits. Industrial factories, agriculture, which emits ammonia and methane.Each of these factors contributes to air pollution.

Environmental Impacts.

The ozone hole and acid rain and global warming are effects of polluted air. If we understand where they come from it will be a step towards a better life on the planet.

Polluted air has a negative impact on our health. More and more people have lung problems and more people are acquiring allergies. Particularly at risk are our children because they are developing and the elderly because of their age. We should.especially protect children by going out with them often to fresh air. You can also buy an air purifier, which is great for these days.
Education is very important. Proper habits at home, such as segregation of garbage, or using natural ingredients will contribute to improving the quality of life.

How can individuals contribute to reducing air pollution in their daily lives?

Public transportation is one way to "fight" air pollution. It is worth using buses, streetcars or subways.It will reduce emissions.
Cycling, walking is not only ecological but a huge impact on health. It is also worth remembering to save energy in our homes. Turn off the lights and invest in energy-saving household appliances.
Another important step will be to plant a large number of trees in our settlements and support local organic products without fertilizers.
The last measure I can think of is burning garbage. Unfortunately, but a lot of people still burn garbage in their home stoves. Despite the penalties, many people do not understand this mistake.

How does air pollution vary between urban and rural areas?

Air in the countryside and in the city are two different worlds. No exhaust fumes, factories wdac from afar. People are healthier and smiling. It is thought that clean air also affects the psyche of a person for its impact on a longer life.
Open spaces in the countryside, lots of traffic translates into many benefits for people.
I think the coming years will show whether we have come to our senses and will survive on this planet. Be vigilant, read labels on products, walk and train a lot and the world will be a better place.
