2. CAUSES OF THE POLLUTION
DESCRIPTION
THE TRAFFIC
Cars, planes and other vehicles are the most pollutants transports. They throw toxic gases on air, harmful for the health.
FOSSIL FUEL
The confort and well-being of the citizens, the factories, produced the increased use of the fossil fuel, like coal, oil…
DEFORESTATION

CHEMICAL PRODUCTS
They are usually used in the crops to kill the bugs, and for a fast-growing efffect, it pollutes the land, and sometimes the food.

3. CONSEQUENCES OF THE POLLUTION
THE ACID RAIN
The combination of different gases, basically Sulfur dioxide (S02) and Nitrogen dioxide (N02) react with the water in the clouds and form the sulfur and nitric acid.Then, the rain falls down.
THE OZONE LAYER
The atmospheric pollution destroys it
And the ultraviolet radiation comes trough.
Causing some ilness like skin’s cancer
ILNESSES
POLLUTANT
ILNESS
SULFUR DIOXIDE
Bronchitis
OZONE AND OTHER PARTICLES
Serious injury to the lungs
CIGARETTE SMOKE
Cancer

4. MOST POLLUTED CITIES IN THE WORLD
Fine particulate (PM2.5) is an air pollutant that is a concern for people's health when levels in air are high. PM2.5 are tiny particles in the air that reduce visibility and cause the air to appear hazy when levels are elevated.
Particles in the PM2.5 size range are able to travel deeply into the respiratory tract, reaching the lungs. Exposure to fine particles can cause short-term health effects such as eye, nose, throat and lung irritation, coughing, sneezing, runny nose and shortness of breath…
This particles comes basically from the cars, bus industries…

Jorramabad, Iran
Raipur, India
