1. The document discusses various types of air pollution including carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter, ground-level ozone, and smog. 2. It describes the sources and health effects of each pollutant. Carbon monoxide is produced from burning fossil fuels and deprives the body of oxygen. Sulfur dioxide causes wheezing and shortness of breath. 3. The document provides tips for reducing air pollution such as biking, encouraging carpooling, turning off lights when not in use, and joining groups that work to stop pollution.

4. Natural:forest fires, pollen, dust storm
Unnatural: man-made; coal, wood and other
fuels used in cars, homes, and factories for
energy

6. AQI: Air Quality Index
•Indicates whether pollutant levels in air may cause health concerns.
•Ranges from 0 (least concern) to 500 (greatest concern)

9. Carbon Monoxide
•colorless, odorless
•produced when carbon does not burn in fossil
fuels
•present in car exhaust
•deprives body of O2 causing headaches, fatigue,
and impaired vision

10. Sulfur Dioxide
•produced when coal and fuel oil are
burned
•present in power plant exhaust
•narrows the airway, causing wheezing and
shortness of breath, especially in those with
asthma

11. Nitrogen Dioxide
•reddish, brown gas
•produced when nitric oxide
combines with oxygen in the
atmosphere
•present in car exhaust and power
plants
•affects lungs and causes wheezing;
increases chance of respiratory
infection

12. Particulate Matter
•particles of different sizes and structures that are
released into the atmosphere
•present in many sources including fossil fuels,
dust, smoke, fog, etc.
•can build up in respiratory system
•aggravates heart and lung disease; increases risk
of respiratory infection

13. Ground Level Ozone
•at upper level, ozone shields Earth from sun’s harmful
UV rays
•at ground level, ozone is harmful pollutants
•formed from car, power and chemical plant exhaust
•irritate respiratory system and asthma; reduces lung
function by inflaming and damaging lining of lungs

16. •Combination of gases with water vapor and dust
•Combination of words smoke and fog
•Forms when heat and sunlight react gases
(photochemical smog)
•Occurs often with heavy traffic, high
temperatures, and calm winds

18. •1st smog related deaths were in London in 1873; death
toll 500 people; can you imagine how much worse the
atmosphere is now?!
•Limits visibility
•Decreases UV radiation
•Yellow/black color over cities
•Causes respiratory problems and bronchial related
deaths

20. Use Shape

25. •Ride your bike
•Tell your friends and family about pollution
•Make sure your parents get pollution checks on their cars
•Ride the school bus

26. •Learn more; stay up to date
•Join a group to stop pollution
•Encourage your parents to carpool to work
•Switch off lights, fan, heat, etc. when you leave the
room
