Question

The environment is everything around us, both natural and made by man. A major problem in the world today is the destruction of the natural environment.

This is a complicated problem. We burn fuel, and this causes air pollution. We throw away plastic bags, containing toys and other objects. These stay in the environment, they are not like paper or wood that slowly disappear. We made thousands of new chemicals. Factories that make or use chemicals always have chemical wastes. These are often poisonous, and they also stay in the environment.

Air pollution is by far the most harmful form of pollution in our environment. Air pollution is caused by the exhaust fume emitted by cars, buses and trucks, trains, and factories. Even smoke from burning leaves and cigarettes is harmful to the environment and causes a lot of damage to man and the atmosphere. Evidence of increasing air pollution is seen in lung cancer, asthma, allergies, and various breathing problems.
