Air pollution in Paris
Kia ora Jess,
ReplyDeleteYou have done a fantastic job of pointing out and sharing three things that you have learnt from the video about air pollution. You are correct, it is the sad truth but humans really have contributed in a lot of the air pollution that has occurred on this planet, however, some of the air pollution that happens are still out of our control. For example, we can't always prevent wildfires from happening and we definitely can't control farm animals giving off toxic gasses after they eat or volcanoes from erupting either (yet)! All we can do is limit the amount of activities we do that cause more air pollution.
There are many ways we can do this. We need to be cautious of the amount of energy we are using and make the effort to try out new and more efficient sources of energy like solar power. Do you have anything in your house that uses solar energy? The old fashioned calculators have a solar panel to trap and use solar energy which I always thought was pretty awesome.
Keep it up,
Evelyn :)
