Almost 500 mil animals die every day because of people.
This number includes not only higher mammals, but also victims of poultry industry and fishing industry, as well as animal abuse victims and animals in captivity that died before they could be murdered.
Car smoke or exhaust contains many toxic chemicals that are harmful to health and the ozone layer. The major chemical in car exhaust is carbon monoxide.
Many things, to include 'first hand smoke'.
Fuels burned for cooking are usually burned in conditions of plentiful air and low temperatures so the production of CO and NOx is low. Burning of biomass can create organic emissions as volatiles are boiled out of the unburned material. Carbon dioxide emissions are lowest with methane and highest with coal, peat and charcoal.
The biggest Chicken egg ever layed was 12 1/4" in diameter and weighed 12oz.
This is misleading. last week one of our hens laid an egg that weighed 99.9g.
The weighing was carried out on an accurate electronic balance and witnessed by 3 persons other than me. I have never seen a bigger one.Today my hen layed an Egg, which is 20.5cm around the centre and weighs 189grams, it is huge and the hen lives on.

Everybody is aware about the pretty interesting discussion going on around about disadvantages of air pollution. It has grabbed the attention of all and sundry giving rise to plethora of views that range across the entire spectrum of opinion.
Air pollution is one of the most burning issues of today.
Lets come to the disadvantages.
1. The poisnous air has many toxic effects on all of us.
2. It effects our respiratory organs like lungs.
* When we breathe it in, it puts the chemicals in our bodies. Those can make us sick or cause cancer or other sicknesses and some without a cure. * The pollution in the air combines with rain clouds to form acid rain. This acidic rain eats away at statues, harms trees, and kills fish in ponds and if we eat those fish it gets in our body.
It depends on the How someone Use the technology. common bad thing about is it makes someone lazy.
3'R's are the solution, REDUCE, RECYCLE & REUSE
REDUCE -
Consumption of natural resources to the extent possible
Emission of carbon into atmosphere
Developmental projects affecting environment
Human activities acclerating global warming and climate changes
Deforestation for developmental activities
Consumption of non biodegradable materials in every day life
Human activities causing pollution of water bodies, air, forests, soil
Consumption of energy to reduce pollution and exploitation of nature
RECYCLE -
All wasted/spent natural resources to reduce their consumption
All used materials with the available technologies
All used materials manufactured with trees/plants to reduce deforestation
REUSE -
All spent natural resources to reduce more fresh consumption
All materials manufactured with trees/plants for their conservation
All recycled materials to reduce the demand
ALSO: Education. It is not this simple to solve our current-day environmental problems. There has to be a paradigm shift in our way of thought and the way we perceive our environment. Still, these ideas are being very much debated.
We may not have chance to investigate and report the industry that emit pollution. Current logistic system allow sub-contracting manufacturing overseas. The least we can do is not buying goods from company without ISO certified or one with Carbon emission label etc.
On October 18th, 1985, NBA commissioner David Stern banned the Air Jordan I sneaker from the NBA. He felt that they failed to meet on-court dress codes and did not match the uniform of the Chicago Bulls. Commissioner David Stern began fining Michael Jordan $5,000 every time he wore the Air Jordan I's on the court. Nike paid the fine and continued to have Michael wear the shoes. In doing so, the popularity of the product skyrocketed and sales were astronomical for the product.

Many common pool chemicals cause foamy pool water. For example algaecide. However, the foaming should not be excessive. If you have a lot of foaming, it could be due to a hold in your return line.
We need to prevent pollution for a LOT of important reasons.For one,when we drive cars they give off carbon minoxide(in an enclosed space),carbon dioxide,nitrogen(which is VERY flammable),and other dangerous gases.These gases go up into our air and atmosphere and what happens?We breathe them in.
Secondly,All those gases going up into the atmosphere are messing with our atmosphere and making global warming happen which makes the temperatures get hotter.The increased temps will make the icebergs melt,making our oceans overflow and taking thousands of animals' homes who live in places like antarctica.
There's a hole in the ozone layer caused by all these gases. They are still making the hole bigger,very very slowly but surely.This will let harmful UV rays through(Basically radiation-it's rays from the sun) and those can give us cancer and other deadly things as such.
See,this is why it is SO IMPORTANT to stop pollution.
Production system in which the waste or byproduct of oneprocess or product is used in making another product. For example, recycling waste newspaper to make paper-board or other types of paper.
It is also the name of an oil absorbent company based out of Union, MO

Carbon dioxide is pumped into the air causing Ozone Depletion, Smog, and plain old bad air. Waste forms that can be dumped into rivers and oceans.

Eco-friendly products, also known as "green" products, are generally made with non-toxic, locally obtained, sustainable materials.
Ideally, the product's entire lifecycle -- sourcing of materials, manufacturing, distribution, marketing, sales, use, disposal and recycle or reuse -- should have minimal impact on the environment.
Examples of eco-friendly products include locally grown organic fruits and vegetables, handmade wooden toys with non-toxic paints, alternative fuel vehicles (hybrid and electric vehicles), and energy devices for buildings (solar panels and wind turbines).
For more complete information on eco-friendly products, sustainable design and green living, go to the link below for Green Living.
mainly they get there logs to the mills by transportation trucks. In the old days they cut the trees down and let them flow down the river where a mill would be located on the side of the river.
Peva is polyethylene vinyl acetate which is a plastic and a vinyl making it biodegradable. Biodegradable objects are things that do not produce any kinds of gas.
There are many kinds of waste, and many ways of disposing of waste. Most communities have sewage treatment plants, which treat sewage waste. Improvements in how this is done are coming rapidly.
Industrial waste might or might not be biodegradable. For example inorganic chemicals are not normally biodegradable. On the other hand, leather scraps and wood chips are. Some non-biodegradable waste is put into landfills, and some is recycled for reuse. Biodegradable industrial waste may be digested in special reaction vessels. Farm wastes may be similarly treated.
Hazardous waste is specially treated, as required. Nuclear waste is left in casks at the plants that created it, until someone makes a decision about what to do with it.
Household waste is often segregated, as required by municipalities. Plastics and metals, which are not biodegradable, are recycled. Hazardous waste goes into special containers, often on designated days. Biodegradable waste is often composted, either by the municipality, or by the resident.
Biodegradable waste can give off methane gas as it decomposes. Methane is a powerful global warming gas, much more powerful than carbon dioxide. In places where a sufficient amount of methane is generated, it is often used to generate heat or electricity.
In other words, the answer is Yes.
That's really hard to say. I think it's because there is not nearly enough soccer players!
There are several ways to control air pollution. One way is to use public transportation or carpool with others to reduce emissions from cars. Another way is to reduce power consumption by limiting use of the air conditioning.
