|
Air pollution is a really obvious problem that is happening all around the world, especially in large community areas and developing-industrial-areas. Thailand is one of the countries that has a rapid growth of both industrial and agricultural development. That is, there are many activities done for the development, but they also affect the air in the atmosphere such as - Speeding of construction - Industrial establishment - Using toxic chemicals in agriculture - Development of transportation Therefore, these activities create pollution. '10 Most Visited Countries In The World' list was created and Thailand was presented in the list. According to an annual statistic, the numbers of foreign visitors that visit Thailand seem to increase every year. Of course, the numbers seem satisfying for all the businesses, but, every coin has two sides. Benefits for the economy's growth, but disadvantages for the environment. Along with the fact that the number of the population in this country is pretty high, traffic problems seem to become more severe continuously. Traffic is one of the main reasons why air pollution happens. These are some suggestions for air pollution control 1) Regulations about how to control the pollution properly 2) Proper Zoning in a city 3) Control of Activities that will create more pollution and affect the environment 4) Community Health Education to give out useful knowledge to everybody about air pollution 5) Policies for Public |
