easy to understand air pollution

2. Introduction
Clean air is made up of nitrogen, oxygen
and argon, with traces of other gases such
as carbon dioxide.
Air pollutants mainly come from the
discharges of gases and particles, mostly
from industry, Motor vehicles
and Domestic , Wood Burning.
Occurs when the air contains harmful
gasses, dust and fuels.

3. How Does Air Pollution Occur ?
Air pollution occurs when air impurities in
the form of gaseous or particles are emitted
into the atmosphere.
It is important to recognize that air pollution
is not a single entity but an alphabet soup of
foregoing materials mixed with the normal
constituents of air.
Air pollutant comes from a variety of natural
and man-made sources.

4. How Do Humans Cause Air Pollution?
 We cause air pollution directly through our use of electricity,
fuels, and transportation.
 We also cause air pollution INDIRECTLY, when we buy goods
and services that use energy in their production and
delivery.
 Most of this air pollution we cause results from the burning of
fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, natural gas, and gasoline to
produce electricity and power our vehicles.
 Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a good indicator of how much fossil
fuel is burned and how much of other pollutants are

8. How To Reduce The Air Pollution
 Take the bus, subway or train.
 Try walking or bike cycle.
 If you do drive, keep your car in

 Turn off the car in signals.
 If possible share your room with others when the air
conditioner, cooler or fan is on.
 Do not burn leaves in your garden, put them in a
compost pit.

9. Conclusion

 Without air , earth would be unable to sustain life.
 Save the “MOTHER EARTH”
