Choose water based or low amounts of volatile compound products whenever possible. Switch to a push mower for grass cutting. Use water based paints. When painting, use a brush to paint instead of using a paint sprayer.
    8. Make smart energy saving decisions The best methods for preventing air pollution are those you already know. Make smart energy saving decisions whenever you buy or use a product.
