The air pollution.

The air pollution is an envirinmental problem, it consist in the emission of toxic substances, gases, or

elements to the atmosphere, substances like carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulphur; these substances affect in a negative form the environment and can cause for example the acid rain.

Some causes of air pollution are beyond our control, other sources can be managed through canges in your life style. Some examples are:

• Transport vehicle emissions: Are a source of fossil fuel emissions and air pullution.
• Industry is a big contributor to air pollution, industrial process release pollutants such as nitrous oxide and hydrofluorocarbons into the enviroment.
• The deforentation affects the atmosphere in general ways, the forest act as sinks for carbon dioxide through a process called carbon sequestration.

The air pollution is a big problem for the society and the world, there is a big number of consequencs for this problem, for example:

The greenhouse effect, it is caused by the big quantity of toxic gases, elements and substances in the environment. However, this consequence is cause of another, the increase of the temperature in all the world, it causes chancge in the climate, the climate can be so unestable, this is called world warning and it is very clear today.

Another effect is the acid rain, this is by the toxic emissions from the cars, the industry, houses and a lot of human activities.

It is a world-wide problem so every person has to take part in the solutions, some things that we can do are; decrease the use of the cars, walk to go to different places, try to use the two sides of the paper, this simple action can decreace the deforestation and decreace the air pollution.

We ought to help the environment, so the society must change the actual style of life, we could think our daily activities, like going to close places in car, we are destroying the planet, we generate a lot of problems like the air pollution, it might extint the humans, for all of these things the human ought to decrease the environment problems and may save the world.

To decreace the air pollution, we must move by walking, the people that use the car a lot could use bicycle, it might reduce the air pollution and it may be healthier.

There are a lot of organisations which work for the care of the environment, for example the next organisations help to avoid the air pollution:

In first place we have the UNEP (United Nations for the Environment Problems), it was created in 1980, in Toronto, Canada, they make campaings for the use of bicycles, moreover they impulse the use of ligth bulbs of low consume.

Another famous organisation is Greenpeace, it was created in 1971, in Vancouver, Canada, they have programs like, they are against the deforestation, also, they have campaigns for try to avoid the forest fire.

The Climate Group is another organisation, it was created in 2007, in Paris, France, they have more than 10 years promoting a future low in carbon by a clean revolution of new technologies nad green energies.

It is important that more people and more organisations take part in the world-wide problem of the air pollution, and the care of the environment.
