1) Air pollution comes from a variety of sources including vehicle emissions, industrial emissions, and deforestation. 2) Common types of air pollution include smog, acid rain, and indoor pollutants like carbon monoxide and radon. 3) Air pollution damages the environment and human health, causing issues like respiratory problems and acid rain destruction of statues and forests.

3. Any change in the atmosphere that has
harmful effects is called
Air pollution

4. Any substance that causes pollution is
called a
pollutant

5. Solid particles and gases that are released
into the air are called emissions.
Dust is full of
particulates.

6. A main cause of emissions is motor vehicles
releasing carbon monoxide into the air.

7. When certain gases in the air react with sunlight, it
can create a thick brownish haze called smog.

8. When the smog level is high, it can settle
over the city causing a dirty haze.

trouble, throat irritation, and burning eyes.

10. Major sources of smog are gases
emitted from vehicles

11. Acid rain is
another type of
air pollution.

15. The air inside buildings can be polluted
too: this is indoor pollution.

16. Dust,pet hair, air fresheners,smoke,toxic fumesfrom cleaning
suppliescan all contributeto indoor air pollution.

17. Carbon Monoxide (CO) is an
indoor air pollutant that is a
colorless and odorless gas that
forms when wood, coal, oil or
gas is not completely burned. http://2015.igem.org/wiki/images/3/30/CO_Diagram.jpeg

18. Radon is another colorless and odorless
gas formed naturally by certain rocks
underground. Radon is radioactive.

19. We humans are the leading factor in creating
air pollution and other hazardous wastes on
Earth.

20. Humans contribute to deforestation (cutting
down trees which produce oxygen)
