What are some things that humans can do to cause air pollution?

Answer 1

Humans can pollute the air in many ways, one of these ways is by saying mama. Another way in which humans pollute the air is by singing mama song. Believe it or not cows are also polluting the air by go close to your mama

Answer 2

Humans probably first experienced harm from air pollution when they built fires in poorly ventilated caves. Since then we have gone on to pollute more of the earth's surface. Until recently, environmental pollution problems have been local and minor because of the Earth's own ability to absorb and purify minor quantities of pollutants. The industrialization of society, the introduction of motorized vehicles, and the explosion of the population, are factors contributing toward the growing air pollution problem. At this time it is urgent that we find methods to clean up the air.

The primary air pollutants found in most urban areas are carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, hydrocarbons, and particulate matter (both solid and liquid). These pollutants are dispersed throughout the world's atmosphere in concentrations high enough to gradually cause serious health problems. Serious health problems can occur quickly when air pollutants are concentrated, such as when massive injections of sulfur dioxide and suspended particulate matter are emitted by a large volcanic eruption.

Carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning has been classified by the US EPA as a pollutant because of its effect on the environment by causing global warming.

Answer 3

Smoking can pollute, Cars(gas), Chemical uses , Factories with steam stuff

We do a lot of things that cause air pollution!!

:( we can decrease our uses of these if we want to decrease air pollution :)

Answer 4

Smog, in particular "Photochemical smog", is a total man made pollution problem. It arises when reactive volatile hydrocarbons (VOCs) mix with nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the presence of ultraviolet light.

The nitrogen oxides result from the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels in internal combustion engines (automobiles) and high temperature industrial furnaces. The VOCs come from automobile exhausts and other sources.

The mixture reacts and forms a number of nasty compounds which are both irritating and toxic. These include: * Ozone * PAN: peroxacyl nitrates * Aldehydes and ketones

Answer 5

1) Burning of fossil fuel. (coal, petroleum products) in automobiles, generators, thermal power plant. 2) Smoke from industries (e.g. brick-kiln , crashers, etc.) 3) Burning of fuel wood and dung cakes in household cooking.

Answer 6

We cause air pollution by using vehicles that release gases that cause and increase air pollution. By using electricity we also cause air pollution ( computers).

Answer 7

Release of bodily gases.
