This problem was solved by reducing the number of such farms. 65.8 metric tons (64.8 long tons; 72.5 short tons) of carbon dioxide were emitted in the country in 1996‚ ranking among one of the highest emission levels in the world. Air polluters in Singapore are mostly‚ but not only‚ vehicles for transport‚ despite the country’s tough regulations. The country frequently is blanketed

seriously. (Wu‚ 2013) Economic Explanation From the point of economic‚ the fog and haze weather problem is the "external" problem. Because the delimitation of air property right is indistinct‚ many producers and consumers discharge dust and carbon dioxide emissions into the air‚ and they don’t bear the full cost and also don’t need suffer punishment. Thus even if the problem of air pollution is more and more serious‚ they can still discharge pollutants into the air. (Xinshijiao‚ 2013) Environment

Carbon dioxide makes our atmosphere or rather our environment poisonous for us. Trees consume this carbon dioxide and thereby make our environment safe for us. Trees provide us with furniture: Trees are our constant companies in our day to day life. We use them for various purposes. We cannot think of our homes

Limnic eruption A limnic eruption is a very rare natural disaster and also known as a lake turnover it is when there is a sudden release of inflammable gases (usually carbon dioxide) from a maar which is a lake in the crater of an extinct volcano‚ which is saturated with carbon dioxide from underlying magma reservoirs. A limnic eruption is a Geomorphological hazard because the occurrence of the eruption takes place first starting within the earth from the underlying magma reservoir. It is very rare
