Air Pollution

Page 15: Environmental protection

Any visible or invisible particle or gas found in the air that is not part of the original, normal composition.

Page 16: Environmental protection

AIR POLLUTION

Some primary air pollutants may react with one another or with other chemicals in the air to form secondary air pollutants.

Page 17: Environmental protection

Primary Air Pollutant : Harmful substance that is emitted directly into the atmosphere. Secondary Air Pollutant : Harmful substance formed in the atmosphere when a primary air pollutant reacts with substances normally found in the atmosphere or with other air pollutants

Ways to Reduce Air Pollution

Conserve energy - turn off appliances and lights when you leave the

room.Recycle, glass bottles, cardboard, and

aluminum cans.Connect your outdoor lights to a timer

or use solar lighting.Wash clothes with warm or cold water

instead of hot.Reduce the use of air conditioners.

Case Study: Radioactive Radon

Radon-222, a radioactive gas found in Radon-222, a radioactive gas found in some soils and rocks, can seep into some houses and increase the risk of lung cancer. and rocks, can seep into some houses and increase the risk of lung cancer.

We know that certain environmental conditions like air , water,& food are essential for man , survival . Apart from their availability their quality & quantity must be assured according to men natural & acquired capacity for sustenance progress in industrialization has brought environmental hazards such as air water & noise pollution . These have caused many health problems & diseases.
