the three following reasons.

II. Body
Paragraph 1 Main idea 1: First of all, the burning of fuels is the main cause of air pollution.

Supporting details (1) People nowadays tend to use private vehicles which leads
to a huge amount of exhaust fumes being released into the
environment.

(2) Moreover, the burning fuels during cooking activities also

releases gases and dust in to the air.

(3) As a result, the harmful emissions from fuel combustion

cause a high level of pollution.

Paragraph 2 Main idea 2: Next, industrialization is also one of the main reasons for the air
pollution.

Supporting details (1) Manufacturing industries emits a large amount of carbon

dioxide and chemical into the air.

(2) Industrialization also generates a lot of emissions which are

dangerous into the environment.

(3) Furthermore, the air quality is declining due to smoke and

dust from many construction sites.

Paragraph 3 Main idea 3: Finally, natural events can also have a negative effect on the air
environment.

Supporting details (1) Thick layers of fog appear during the changing season
prevents dust from escaping.
 (2) In addition, climate change also increases the production of
air pollutants.
(3) In fact, natural processes such as wind and air currents
cause lots of substances and dirt from the ground and
transport them into the air.

III. Conclusion
Restatement In conclusion, air pollution is getting worse because of fuel combustion,
/ Summary: industrialization and natural events.

Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in Vietnam because of its remarkable
development in economic and science. However, these developments have also led to
many consequences. One of them is air pollution. In my opinion, air pollution in Ho

opinion, air pollution in Ho Chi Minh city is becoming more serious because of the
three following reasons.

First of all, the burning of fuels is the main cause of air pollution. The preference for
private vehicles leads to emission of exhaust fumes. people nowadays tend to use
private vehicles which leads to a huge amount of exhaust fumes being released into the
environment. Moreover, the fuel burning from cooking activities, the burning fuels
during cooking activities also releases gases and dust into the air. As a result, the
harmful emissions from fuel combustion cause a high level of pollution.

Next, industrialization is also one of the main reasons for air pollution. Manufacturing
industries emit emits a large amount of carbon dioxide and chemicals chemical into
the air. These toxic waste are discharged directly into the environment without the use
of air purifier. Industrialization also generates a lot of emissions which are dangerous
into the environment. Furthermore, the air quality is declining due to smoke and dust
from many construction sites.

Finally, natural events can also have a negative effect on the air environment. Thick
layers of fog appear during the changing season prevents dust from escaping. In
addition, climate change also increases the production of air pollutants. In fact, natural
processes such as wind and air currents cause lots of substances and dirt from the
ground and transport them into the air.

To sum up, air pollution is getting worse because of fuel combustion, industrialization
and natural events. In my point of view, the air pollution level is at an alarming rate
and we should take action to solve it.In conclusion, air pollution is getting worse
because of fuel combustion, industrialization and natural events.
