    China's coal factories produce large amounts of air pollution that drifts to nearby countries. The pollution contains smog, smoke, and other pollutants that harm the environment, plants, animals, and human health through difficult breathing and reduced visibility. Potential solutions include reducing fossil fuel use, increasing forestation, and developing air purification buildings.

    By Truman Cremers
    Air Pollution from China

    • China has many factories that burn coal.


    • Coal is bad for the environment.
    • Creates smog, smoke, and pollute the air.
    • Pollution floats to other countries.
    Countries Involved

    • China causes pollution


    • Drifts to Mongolia, Korea, Laos, And parts of Eastern Russia
    • Winds and air currents carry them
    Lasting Effects

    • Can cause difficulty breathing


    • Harms plants, animals, and humans
    • Makes it hard to see
    Possible Solutions

    • Reduce the use of Fossil fuels


    • Plant trees and leave forests to purify air
    • Special Buildings act like vacuum cleaners to purify air
