Air Pollution :Air Pollution Responsible for More Than 2 Million Deaths Worldwide Each Year, Experts Estimate
Air pollution has been a very big problem for a long time, but we think it does not have a big effect on us. In fact air pollution has a big effect. Air pollution has been affecting us so much that their has been over 2 million deaths because of air pollution affecting a persons health. Studies have shown that what affects people is the climate change and the little particles in the air called, PM2.5. A co-author of the study has said, "Our estimates make outdoor air pollution among the most important environmental risk factors for health. Many of these deaths are estimated to occur in East Asia and South Asia, where population is high and air pollution is severe." This shows that many people die because of air pollution and it should be time to be aware.
I chose this article for multiple reasons. Through the service I've done in the past years I've noticed that we need to help people but also the environment. I've been in multiple clubs such as ecology club and The Lorax gardening club which have taught me how important the air we let our self breathe is important. I've always been concerned about the environment and the air we breathe because heir has been many sicknesses because of the filth in the air. What is most interesting to me is that it has been over 2 million deaths because of air pollution in my thoughts I though this number was lower and that is what struck me. This article in fact also connects to the Lorax because all the animals had to eave because of air pollution and it worries me that we might have to do that in the future. It also worries me that the earth will be so contaminated we will have nowhere else to go.
Air pollution is BIG problem whether we face it or not. In my opinion their is still a chance to lower these numbers. For example we have to be the generation that teaches the younger one how to be eco- friendly from the start. That step will not fix the air pollution but it also wont make it worst. We need more corporations in the world in fact to become eco friendly we need to take actions, their is 7 billion people in the world and the earth that is running out this needs to stop and we need to take action. The more we cut down trees the less clean air we have. We need to plant more trees, put more clubs at school, teach the next generation, and take action.
