Science Folio Chapter 5 B6D5E1 Title: Importance of maintaining the cleanliness of air Introduction The atmosphere of Earth is a layer of gases surrounding the planet Earth that is retained by Earth’s gravity. The atmosphere protects life on earth by absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation‚ warming the surface through heat retention (greenhouse effect)‚ and reducing temperature extremes between day and night. One of the most important factors drawing international attention which is
