    The document discusses various types of air pollution caused by burning fossil fuels, including carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, soot, sulphur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides. It notes that overpopulation and overuse of cars have led to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, causing global warming. The document provides some solutions to reduce air pollution such as using lean-burn engines, catalytic converters, and planting plants. It also distinguishes between renewable fuels like plants that can be used again versus non-renewable fossil fuels that will eventually run out.

    WHAT IS TEH

     The air pollution from burning fossil fuels


    WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS AIR
    POLLUTION?

     It is mostly because of the over population and the over


    usage of cars.

    WHAT DO CARS PRODUCE THAT CAUSES


    AIR POLLUTION?

    o It is mostly because of
    carbon dioxide and other
    gases.
    CARBON DIOXIDE
     It is supposed to be about 0.04% but because of the
    burning of fossil fuels the percentage is changing and
    getting higher.

     It causes global warming and is harmful to our lives.


    CARBON MONOXIDE
     MANY people have been killed because
    of carbon monoxide, it is very toxic.
     It is produced due to incomplete
    combustion.

    SOOT
     It blacken buildings and
    damages health.
     It causes global dimming.
    SULPHUR DIOXIDE & NITROGEN
    OXIDES
     Both make the rainwater more acidic,
    which makes it harmful to humans, fish,
    and damages buildings.
    HOW TO REDUCE POLLUTION?

    1. Lean-burn car engines.

    2. Catalytic converters.

    3. Planting plants.
    RENEWABLE & NON-RENEWABLE
    FUELS
     Renewable fuels (infinite) can be used again.
    Such as:

     Non-renewable fuels (finite) will eventually run out.


    Such as:
