The first thing people see, in the morning, when they walk outside is the sky or the colored sun. Is this world giving us the privilege of seeing the natural colors of the sun
through all the layers of pollution within the air (Dinanike 31)? Not only are beautiful
sights such as this hidden behind the pollution this world causes everyday,
but an increase in diseases, infections and death occurs. What causes pollution?
What can we do to prevent it, and get rid of it? Is it fair to the children of the future to
have to suffer the consequences that pollution causes? Why not take care of the problem now? Factory and business owners care of the problem now? Factory and business owners have the ability to prevent air pollution..
Air pollution is the presence in the atmosphere of harmful gases, liquids, or solids.
Air pollution, known as smoke pollution for many years, resulted from coal combustion
(Hodges 526). Smog has been a problem in coal-burning areas for several centuries.
Smog finally decreased when coal combustion was replaced by oil and gas combustion.
Air pollution is caused by a number of different types of pollutants.
Acid rain is a problem that has plagued earth for years. It is poisoning our waters,
animals, plants, soil, and more. It is a problem that can not be ignored or it might have
catastrophic results on our environment. Acid rain is caused by air pollution, which is
Scientists have discovered that air pollution from the burning of fossil fuels is the
major cause of acid rain. Power plants and factories burn coal and oil, which is used to
produce the electricity we need to heat and light our homes and to run our electric
appliances. We also burn natural gas, coal, and oil to heat our homes, and our cars,
trucks, boats, and airplanes use gasoline to run, which is another fossil fuel.
The smoke and fumes from burning fossil fuels rise into the atmosphere and combine
with the moisture in the air to form acid rain. The main chemicals in air pollution that
create acid rain are sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. Acid rain usually forms high in the
clouds where sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides react with water, oxygen, and oxidants.
This forms a mild solution of sulfuric acid and nitric acid. Sunlight then increases the rate
of these reactions. Rainwater, snow, fog.
