Natural air pollution sources include:
- volcanoes (SO2, CO2, ash)
- forest fires (CO2)
- Pine forests (turpenes)
- dust storms (particlate)
- anaerobic decomposition (methane)
- lightning (ozone, NOx)
- ozone downwashing (ozone)
- natural gas leakage from underground formations (methane)
- carbon dioxide from underground formation (carbon dioxide)
- cattle (ruminant) burps and flatualnce
What else can I help you with?
Is human activity the only source of pollution?
No. The sources of pollution can be caused by humans or natural. Examples of man-made pollution include cars, trucks (diesel ESPECIALLY), woodstoves, fireplaces, etc. The pollutants that come from activities such as driving a car or running a factory are particulates, ozone, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and toxic air contaminants. Examples of natural-caused pollution come from volcanic eruptions, forest fires, and dust storms.
Where does water pollution happens?
water pollution is when water is polluted by man made or natural toxins
What are the impacts of man made sources of pollution?
globail warming,deforestration
Is pollution a natural disaster?
Pollution is man made. From steam factories to rubbish is all created by man, therefore making pollution not a natural hazard nor disaster.
Is habitat loss natural or man-made?
I believe it could be both. A natural loss of habitat may be caused by flooding or a forest fire for instance. - A man made loss of habitat could be caused by building a highway or cutting down a forest.
What are the sources that damage the ozone layer?
The ozone can be damaged by natural or man made sources. Man made is CFC's and natural is UV rays.
What are 2 main sources of air pollution and what have the government done about it?
Two main sources of air pollution are vehicle emissions and industrial activities. Governments have implemented measures such as enforcing emission standards for vehicles, promoting public transportation, and regulating emissions from industries to reduce air pollution. Additional efforts include promoting cleaner technologies and renewable energy sources to further curb air pollution.
What is the difference between a natural hazard and a man made hazard with examples?
A natural hazard is a threat caused by natural phenomena, such as earthquakes or hurricanes, while a man-made hazard is a threat resulting from human activities, like pollution or industrial accidents. For example, an earthquake is a natural hazard, while a nuclear power plant meltdown is a man-made hazard.
Natural and man-made sources of these gases?
Natural sources of these gases include volcanic eruptions, wildfires, and decomposition of organic matter. Man-made sources include burning fossil fuels, industrial processes, and deforestation. Both natural and man-made sources contribute to the levels of these gases in the atmosphere.
What are natural and man made sources of light?
Natural sources of light include the sun, stars, and lightning. Man-made sources of light include light bulbs, fluorescent lamps, and LED lights.
Does a whole in the ozone layer caused by natural processes?
No it is not. It is caused by man made CFC's.
Is most air pollution made in the city?
Air pollution is also caused in towns and villages, but alot is in cities because of factories, cars e.t.c.
