Smog is a mixture of smoke and fog that contains ozone and is unhealthy to breathe. You probably know about the ozone layer that’s high above the atmosphere—it protects the Earth from solar radiation. But when ozone is down near the land in the air we breathe‚ it can bother our lungs and kill plants. What is pollution and how does it affect us? Pollution is the contamination of

background Air pollution consists of many types. Smog‚ acid rain‚ ozone layer‚ and the green house effect destruction all cause serious problems for people and the environment. Smog and acid rain are caused by the release of noxious gases‚ like carbon monoxide. The ozone layer is being destroyed by another form of air pollution‚ Chlorofluorocarbons‚ even though these were band in 1995 people now use hydro chlorofluorocarbons‚ which destroy the ozone more slowly (maybe take this out?).

When some other gases or dangerous elements get into the clean air‚ pollution is inevitable. Ozone layer is affected too much by pollution and it will cause serious disturbances on the environment. People are the main cause of pollution because the things that we use contain dangerous chemicals and they make atmosphere dirtier. Furthermore climate

Other emissions that affect human health and create smog include ozone and carbon monoxide. (See Reference 1) The good news is that despite the increase of vehicles on the road‚ air quality today is actually better than it was in the 1970s‚ thanks to the 1970 Clean Air Act.

of the most serious problems in the modern world. Global warming means there is gradually increasing temperature on the earth‚ and consequently climate changing. Global warming is the result of human actions. The atmosphere is changing‚ and the ozone layer is under the threat from chemicals that people use on the earth. The amount of using fossil fuels‚ such as oil‚ gas‚ coal‚ and deforestation produces carbon dioxide. The global warming‚ as a result of man- made pollution‚ will increase not only

Now‚ because there are so many cars on the road‚ the ozone layer is depleting and global warming is real‚ regardless if President Bush does not believe in it. What is going on? Where did all these problems come from? What are we going to do to solve these problems? Just relax‚ I know the root of this problem
