3rd Practice

Probem – Solution


POLLUTION


Air pollution is a current problem in the whole world. It has been a problem for many years, and it is increasing even more. Pollutants like carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, or burned fossil fuels produced by industries or factories, cars and other motor vehicles make the situation go worse, as well as being the causing factors. It has terrible effects on human health, because the polluted air is the air we breathe, which can damage seriously our organism with respiration and heart problems. But also it has effects on the environment, causing terrible disasters like the so called “Greenhouse effect”, or even worse, the global warming, all related to the Ozone layer, which makes possible life on earth. If we do nothing to change this situation and continue polluting the world, the effects could be catastrophic for the population.




In order to overcome these problems, people mustn’t use cars, but this can’t be possible because they are necessary to our daily life so people criticize this solution because cars are needed by them to move from one place to another.
One solution to solve the problem of pollution would be to encourage people to use public transport, in order to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide and the air pollution. Also making use of pooling cars, this is to make full use of it by carrying many people in one single drive, which would save not only energy, but also money.
A second solution would be to switch off lights when we go out of our homes, since a large amount of fossil fuels are burnt in order to produce electricity, so you can save the environment from degradation by reducing the amount of fuels to be burned.


Although finishing with pollution is a very difficult objective, the earth would be cleaner and less polluted if we carry out these easy steps and measures in our daily life, and the world will thank us.
