INTRODUCTION :
Air containing :
The composition of air The average percentage of its
components by volume
NITROGEN 78%
OXYGEN 21%
INERT GASES & OTHERS 0.97%
CARBON DIOXIDE 0.03%
OBJECTIVES of THE
PROJECT :
To laern more about air pollution.
CAUSES OF AIR
POLLUTION
Electricity generation
Open burning
EFFECT OF AIR
POLLUTION
GREENHOUSE EFFECT
The greenhouse effect is a process by which radiative energy leaving a planetary
surface is absorbed by some atmospheric gases, called greenhouse gases. They
transfer this energy to other components of the atmosphere, and it is re-radiated
in all directions, including back down towards the surface.
ACID RAIN
Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic. It can
have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals, and infrastructure through the
process of wet deposition. Acid rain is caused by emissions of compounds of
ammonium, carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur which react with the water molecules in
the atmosphere to produce acids.
DISCUSSION :
Forming and implementing a car pool will reduce the number of cars,
thereby, preventing air pollution by cutting down the use of fossil fuels.
Switch off the lights, fans, air conditioners, televisions, and other
appliances, when not in use. You can also share a room with others when the air conditioner
or fan is on, instead of switching them on in every room.
