TEST 3 S2
How does air become dirty? Cars, factories and power plants produce emissions and toxic gases that
go into the air. Dusts and chemicals such as carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide in emissions and exhaust gas
are common air pollutants. Air pollution is a serious problem in all over the world. The Air Pollution Index
(API) can tell us how good or poor the air quality is.
Poor air quality can make people sick. It has also been linked to some health problems such as heart
disease and breathing problems. Also, air pollution has led to global environmental problems such as ozone
depletion, global warming and acid rain.
Get a breath of fresh! Air how can we fight air pollution? Actions have been taken to cut down
emissions and exhaust gas and to remove pollutants from emissions. Also new technology can improve air
quality. Factories cut down pollutants from high sulphur fuel and use environmentally-friendly production
techniques. Power plants stop burning coal and use natural gas to make electricity. Government encourages
people to replace their diesel-driven vehicles with liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and electric powered
vehicles.
