Are you satisfied with the air that you breathe today? Do you know how many people suffer from the air pollution? Air pollution, which is harmful to the health or could cause damage to plants and materials, contains gases, dust, fumes. When pollution occurs in the air, it can easily travel and spread, and because we breathe in air, people are not able to easily avoid it. There are three effects of air pollution, which are acidification, health effects and global warming.
The first effect is acidification. Because of the chemical reaction, sulfuric acid with cloud start to rain, called acid rain. The acid rain can harm vegetation and water life, and harm the food chain indirectly. In addition, some buildings and machines are damaged by acid rain because the acid does huge damage on the surface of metal. Many factories and house spend million dollars on preventing the damage from acid rain. Therefore, acidification is the first effects of air pollution.
The second effect of air pollution is health effects. According to the research, more and more people are getting breath disease because of air pollution. The level of effect usually depends on the length of time of exposure. It can be simply classified as two different effects, the short-term effects and long-term effects. Short-term effects include irritation to the eyes, nose and throat, and allergic reactions. Long-term health effects can include chronic diseases, lung cancer, heart disease. Thus, health effects are the second effects.
The third effect of air pollution is global warming. The global warming is the worst situation that air pollution made. Due to tons of harmful gas or carbon dixmore emit into the atmosphere, the ozone layer are getting damaged. Thus, the weather is getting warm. People, animals, plants on the earth are getting hard to adapt the broken environment. In other words, if people don’t reduce the emission, more and more species will die out.
