RECOMMENDATIONS 

TO CONTROL AIR POLLUTION 
1. Using public transport 
Public transport must be used instead of private
transport as it is a short way of contributing to less air
pollution as it provides with less gas and energy
which also help in saving money. 
2. Turn off the lights when not in use 
 Instead of sodium vapor lamps we can use energy saving
fluorescent lights or LED (Light Emitting Diode) to help the
environment. 
3. Recycle and Reuse 
Awareness program should be conducted on the concept
of recycle and reuse which must be made into practice is
not just to conserve resources and use them judicially but
also is helpful for air pollution as it helps in reducing
pollution emissions.  
4.Say No to plastic bags 
Ban on use of plastics should be made
more stringent which cause air pollution which can
be avoided by using cloth or paper bags. 
5. Reduction of forest fires  
Dry leaves can be converted as manure instead
of burning it and forest fire can be avoided by regular
checking of trees by authorities especially during summer
season which would reduce air pollution.  
 
 
6.Smoking causes air pollution 
Smoking causes air pollution as well as many negative
impacts to one’s life. Smoking should be slowly reduced
and awareness should be created to avoid smoking and
smoking in public place must be banned and a separate
smoking place should be created. 
 
7.Use of fans instead of Air Conditioner 
Usage of AC’s can be avoided as it releases the most
harmful gases such as CFC’s (Chlorofluro Carbon) which
can be overcome by fans which cause less effects on
environment. 
8. Use filters for chimneys 
The use of filters should be used at least if the
consumption could not be lessened, this will help to
reduce the effect of harmful gases absorbing in the air. 
9. Avoid usage of crackers 
Use of eco-friendly crackers should be made into practice
and everyone should create awareness about
green Diwali and bursting of crackers during wedding or
any rallies must be banned. 
10. Avoid using of products with chemicals 
Products with low chemical content and organic properties
must be used instead of products with more chemicals in
their usage or smell strongly, like paints or perfumes. 
 
11.Create awareness about Afforestation 
Last but not the least, plant and grow as many trees as
possible. The practice of planting trees must be included
as a part in everyone's academic curriculum which will
create more knowledge about plants and their
importance. Recommend everyone to plant a single tree
on every special occasion they celebrate which
would reduce air pollution and leads to cleaner and
greener environment.
