1. INTRODUCTION The air pollution is the main issue which is debated among the environmentalists over a decades and recent years. As the technology keep on progressing and emerging, it carries along undesirable effects apart from its broad application and use. One of the main contributors is said to be the emission of harmful gases produced by vehicle exhaust lines.

Question: How harmful is air pollution? Background: There are many different types of pollution, some are more visible than others are invisible. Another way of looking at air pollution could be any substance that can interfere with the atmosphere or the well being to survive in that condition.

Zmoke-Stack Abstract It is quite unfortunate how much pollution is in the air. There’s a ton of global warming in the atmosphere, and it is killing many arctic animals such as polar bears. We hate to see how our world is getting more polluted each and every day! So in order to protect and save the world from these “to be born tragedy 's”, we decided to come up with the Zmoke Pods. Zmoke pods will have the following chemicals inside; Krypton, Hydrogen, Xenon, Helium, Neon, Argon and Radon. These
Next, there are human health problems caused by air pollution from the burning of coal and oil. Air pollution can cause long-term damage including many diseases and a range of short-term respiratory symptoms, such as coughing, throat irritation, wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Children, seniors, and asthmatics are most vulnerable to this air pollution. Miners, especially, are prone to black lung disease. Another cost of fossil fuels includes damage to land from coal mining. It
HOW BAD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT IS BURNING WOOD ON A FIRE Burning wood on fire when done inappropriately can have adverse environmental effects or concerns as stipulated below; Carbon Footprint A carbon footprint refers to the amount of carbon a particular activity (in this case wood burning) subtracts or adds to the environment.
