Air pollution also leads to acid rain, which is an even bigger problem. The chemicals released to the air mix with rainwater to form acid rain. Such water then finds its ways to major water bodies. Clean water is essential for survival and by polluting it, we are threatening our very existence.

Though air pollution is a serious problem it’s not hopeless and there are solutions we can implement to reduce the problem. People need to be enlightened on the dangers of air pollution and ways to reduce the amount of pollutants released to the air.

Prevention

Factories should come up with ways of ensuring they minimize the amount of chemicals they release into the air. They can also use processes to purify such chemicals to levels that aren’t dangerous to when released to the environment.

Conclusion

We all have a responsibility to ensure that we use better practices to reduce air pollution. If we don’t take any action, both our survival and that of our generations is greatly threatened. If each one of us takes necessary steps, we will all be on the way to a cleaner, fresher continent. Change starts with you and me.
