Causes

1.The Burning of Fossil Fuels


When fossil fuels are burned, they release large amounts of carbon dioxide
into the air. This is a climate-altering gas. When we use dirty fuels — coal,
gasoline, diesel — topower our cars, heat our homes, and drive industry, we
are creating a polluted environmental.
2. Industrial Emission
Industrial activities emit several pollutants in the air that affect the air
quality more than we can even imagine. Particulate matter 2.5 and 10, NO2,
SO2, and CO are key pollutants that are emitted from industries that use
coal and wood as their primary energy source for the production of their
goods.

3. Transportation
There is no denying that vehicle pollution is the major contributor to air
pollution, especially in urban cities.When the car burns gasoline, it emits
pollutants in the air which is as harmful as smoking 10 cigarettes a day.
SOLVE:
- Using public transports
Using public transport is a sure short way of contributing to less air pollution as it
provides with less gas and energy. Lesser vehicles on roads will contribute to lesser
emissions.
- Turn off the lights when not in use
The energy that the lights take also contribute to air pollution, thus less consumption
of electricity can save energy. Use energy saving fluorescent lights to help the
environment.
