How did you lessen the pollution?
To lesen the pollution is not that easy. First, you need to turn off the lights when you are not in the room. You may also want to chang the regular light blubs to the recycle bulbs that way you may lessen the light pollution. If you want to lessen the air pollution, then you may drive less cars, and not smoke. The only way to make the lessen the noise pollution, is that to keep the voice softer.
What type of greenhouse gas do cars produce?
Primarily carbon dioxide, CO2. Carbon monoxide (CO) is such a small fraction it isn't significant.
Cars also emit some water vapor (H2O), but this amount is trivial. Water vapor tends to be self regulating anyway.
Is it true that 50 percent of water sources in the US are believed to be polluted?
According to the EPA more than half of the rivers and streams in the United States are in too poor a condition for aquatic life, so yes, the statement that 50 percent of water sources in the U.S. are believed to be polluted is true, but the actual percentage may be even higher.

Is New York the dirtiest city in the U.S.?
No, New York City is not the dirtiest city in the U.S. But it can't really be called, "clean," either.
In terms of air quality, New York City is pretty dirty. According to the first Related Link below, New York ranks as #8 of the, "Top 10 U.S. Cities Most Polluted by Ozone." But it did not make the list of, "Top 10 U.S. Cities Most Polluted by Year-Round Particle Pollution," nor did it make the list of, "Top 10 U.S. Cities Most Polluted by Short-Term Particle Pollution."
According to the second Related Link below, which rates the 50 most dirty U.S. cities (50 being the cleanest, and 1 being the dirtiest), New York City ranks as #11.
So, yes, New York City is pretty dirty (although it is not the dirtiest city in the U.S.). But I think it's mostly the air, and the surrounding rivers, that are dirty. New York City is polluted, but, in terms of like, dirty sidewalks and garbage/litter on the streets, New York is very clean. Sometimes you see an overturned garbage can spilling trash all over the street, or a garbage bag on the curb that has been torn open by rodents. But overall, there is not much litter on the streets, and the streets and sidewalks are pretty clean (not encrusted with filth and foul-smelling gunk).
India has a poorly developed infrastructure to handle waste, therefore most industrial, commercial and residential waste from towns and cities along the Ganges ends up in the water. It is also cheaper to simply dump it in the river than to pay to have it hauled away and disposed of.
Why do the garbage people want you to put trash in trash bags?
They dont, but most people do just because it is convienent.
