As the human population increases, so does our demand for water, around the world this demand has increased and so has the issues of conserving water and preserving it. Public awareness is a growing issue that local government needs to get more involved with. Constant change and every day needs along with the increase in pollution and our standard of living has contributed to this crisis.
According to “Virginia Department of Environmental Quality” the vehicle emissions (as well as other natural and artificial sources) contain pollutants that contribute to the formation of ozone, the main component of smog that builds up at ground level in hot, sunny weather. Vehicle emissions also contain pollutants that may affect water quality in the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries. Vehicles are the single greatest source of pollutants in Northern Virginia. Most of the nearly 1.7 million vehicles in Northern Virginia have emissions control equipment. Newer vehicles typically run much more cleanly than the vehicles they replace. But the total amount of vehicle emissions continues to increase with the number of vehicle miles traveled. To ensure that vehicles operate as cleanly as possible, an emissions inspection program has been an important part of Northern Virginia's air quality plan since 1982.
Since the industry revolution, environmental pollution has gradually become a global problem. It has looks set to hog the limelight in the century. Almost all the countries suffer from such problems and are struggling to keep their heads over the water. Air pollution is something in the air that causes harm to humans or the environment. There are many different forms of air pollutants and these are broken down further into primary and secondary pollutants. A primary pollutant is something that stems directly from a source such as volcanic ash or vehicle emissions. A secondary pollutant forms when two pollutants react in the atmosphere such as acid rain.
