Cause of air pollution?
Answer:
There are many substances in the air which may impair the health of plants and animals (including humans), or reduce visibility. These arise both from natural processes and human activity.
Primary pollutants produced by human activity include:
oxides of sulfur, nitrogen and carbon
organic compounds, such as hydrocarbons (fuel vapours and solvents)
particulate matter, such as smoke and dust
metal oxides, especially those of lead, cadmium, copper and iron
chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
hazardous air pollutants (HAP)
persistent organic pollutants (POPs)
odors
Secondary pollutants include some particles formed from gaseous primary pollutants and compounds in photochemical smog, such as nitrogen dioxide, ground level ozone and peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN).
industries
cars..etc
anything that makes smoke and anything that makes some sort of gas that desroys the ozone
Every thing but plants and trees seem to cause pollution. Cars, Industry, people , animals. but even a forest fire causes pollution. I guess you can even go as far as to say that rotting dead trees and plants cause pollution to some point. There are things that cause more than others. The thing is to reduce what is emitted and and work to clean up what we can. Although I like Al Gore he is a little over the edge. He is correct that we need to do something about this problem but you can't stop the earth to fix it. This is every ones problem and we need more answers to what it will take to fix the problems before we get rid of cars industry and those gassy cows.
here:
cars
smoking
factories
burning things especially plastic(the smoke that they create)
but the main cause of air pollution are HUMANS!! DAMN those people who doesn't care to the environment. most of the things above are created by humans and so the humans themselves are the cause of mother earth's sickness!!
