ne

Carbon Monoxide

•colorless, odorless

•produced when carbon does

not burn in fossil fuels

•present in car exhaust

•deprives body of O2 causing headaches, fatigue, and impaired vision

•produced when coal and fuel oil are burned

•present in power plant exhaust

•narrows the airway,

Causing wheezing and

Shortness of breath,

especially

in those with asthma

Sulfur Dioxide

•reddish, brown gas

•produced when nitric

oxide combines with

oxygen in the

atmosphere

•present in car exhaust and power plants

•affects lungs and causes wheezing; increases chance of respiratory infection

Nitrogen Dioxide

•particles of

different sizes

and structures

that are released

into the

atmosphere

•present in many

sources including

fossil fuels,

dust, smoke, fog,

etc.

•can build up in respiratory system

•aggravates heart and lung disease; increases risk of respiratory infection

Particulate Matter

•irritate respiratory system and asthma; reduces lung function by inflaming and damaging lining of lungs

•at ground level, ozone is harmful pollutants

Ground Level Ozone

•at upper level, ozone shields Earth from sun’s harmful UV rays

• formed from

• car, power

• and

• Chemical

plant exhaust

Global Warming Greenhouse Effect

Acid RainThinning of Upper Ozone Layer

Global Warming is Real! It is happening Today!

Because there are more and more

greenhouse gases in the atmosphere,

more heat is trapped which makes

the Earth warmer!

If the ozone layerKeeps getting

thinner, there could be

fewer and fewer plants on Earth,

then there would beless food in the

whole world.

When rain is acidic, it affects what it falls on: trees, lakes, Buildingsand farmland.

So , what should we do to stop “PEOPLE”Laughing at our Mother Earth

Witch OneWill We Choose

What should we do to save the Planet?

Solar and Electro Car vs. Regular Car

VS

REDUCEREUSE (not always:-)RECYCLE

Or Use the Bicycle

Plant More Plants And Stop Destroying The Planet !!!

Even I Want Clean Air

And Always Keep In Mind That…..

I’m Watching You!

Together We Can Do Everything
