Air pollution.... and humans

Air has been in this planet since its creation, and air is also indispensable for nearly everything in this planet. Every creature need air to survive. We should be grateful, but the way we treat our air is quite opposite.

Air pollution is one of the most serious problems this planet have and people must realize what outcomes this problem is going to lead to. Humans have been looking for solutions for this problem, but very far away from solving this problem.

Main cause of this air pollution is the increase level of co2 in the atmosphere. The rate of atmospheric co2 growth is increasing rapidly. The level of co2, which is measured in parts per million (ppm) per year, has tripled in last half of a century. This graph suggests that the earth is in the worst atmospheric condition since its creation. It has never reached this level, and it's still increasing rapidly.

Here are few main causes of co2 increase

1. Burning of fossil fuel

2. Agricultural activites

3. Mass production

Since the mass production and factories were invented in 19th century, the quality of atmosphere has gone terribly downhill. Factories producing ridiculous amount of carbon dioxide, along with other harmful gases in the atmosphere have been weakening our air. Development of cars in recent decades is one of the most crucial factor of poor atmospheric condition.

All of these causes for this problem was created by humans, and humans must be responsible for the mistakes they made and must find a resolution.
