Lets hear possible solution on Air pollution from Ambassador Ms. Sandhya Adhikari
Air pollution can be defined as an alteration of air quality that can be characterized by measurements of chemical, biological or physical pollutants in the air. Undoubtedly it is harmful for all living things; even nonliving as it damages, destructs and alters their normal natural cycle. We've all faced air pollution and experienced it first hand, whether it be on the streets while going out for a quick snack or on the way back to work. With the advancement of modern technology and rise in the number of automobiles, factories, industries and excessive use of fossil fuels, the quality of air that we are breathing is undergoing the process of deterioration. Almost as per the report of World Health Organization, 9 out of 10 people worldwide are exposed to the level of air pollution. Almost 6 million people dies every year due to the air pollution and spread of many airborne diseases are the reward of polluted air. So Tackling with air pollution will be much challenging now than it was a century ago. Human population has increased so much and strolling right beside our population is pollution. It is the most appropriate time and we must act locally socially and world widely in order to have fresh air for breathing. Some of the ideas that can be used for the mitigation of air pollutions. The combined action of individual social community, government bodies and the global body are required for the effective control of the air pollution. Individually: • Everyone should make a habit of proper disposal of wastes, trashes, and leaves. • Instead of burying those plastics we can think wisely for their recycle, reduction, reuse, about 29% of global air pollution can be reduced if plastic isn’t burned. • Single tree can produce nearly 260 pounds of oxygen each year, so effort should be given for plantation I.e. afforestation of trees as well some air purifier as indoor plants. • Management practices for dust settling and using of ecofriendly means of transportation. • less dependence on fossils fuel alternatively solar energy, wind energy can be used. • As LPG produces 33% less carbon dioxide compared to petrol, Diesel and firewood. So, substitution of fire hood to LPG and stoves. • Use of efficient air pollution fewer electric appliances instead. • Effective saving of energy. Socially: · Well management of the wastage and drainage must be emphasized to have the fresh air. · Community plantation campaign should be emphasized as plantation and protection of the tree is the long lasting approach for the fresh air. · Construction works of buildings, roads and any other architectural projects should be carried out carefully. Those construction sites usually consists of high concentration particulates of silica, asbestos, synthetic vitreous fibers and diesel which are the major contributing factors for cancer and other respiratory diseases. Government Bodies: · Government should enforce an "efficient vehicle regulation" in which vehicles must exhaust Carbon dioxide below the permitted or allocated limit. The old and non efficient vehicles should be scrapped and recycled properly along with this government should invest more in alternative renewable energy like hydroelectricity, wind energy, solar energy. ·Industries should also be emphasized to be eco-friendlier by conducting regular energy audits, reducing fossil fuel use by making the plants electric, and reusing and recycling as much as possible. The gaseous wastes should also be properly neutralized and disposed safely in a non-harming way through careful approach as well as people must be made aware of dangerous air pollutants like PM 2.5 and PM 10. Global actions: · Tackling with the problem of global warming should be on everyone's concern, the glaciers are melting due to global warming, the warming temperature is posing circumstances to atmosphere. · Global pressure must be given to those countries contributing the highest amount to air pollution. Countries like China, India, USA have one of the highest pollutions in total and countries like Kuwait and Qatar have highest per capita pollution. They should be pressured to take action immediately in controlling those alarming situations. To sum up lets make this earth beautiful and fresh again.. . |

Hi Sandhya,
This is your mentor Yuseon:D
Wow another excellent topic to discuss!
It's quite well written that you have seperated the solutions in terms of individual efforts, social efforts, government ranges, and in a global perspective. As the body grows, each range would have to take different measures to accomplish the same goal.
It was a very informative report overall.
I would also put myself to follow the individual efforts you have listed as well:)

Dear Sandhya,
This is your mentor Debbie. :)
I love how the ideas are divided into practices that can be done individually, socially and politically and globally. It definitely gives us an idea of how we should approach these problems. And us readers may feel that it??s much clearer what we need to do. For example, the 3Rs! It??s something that we should never forget! :D
Thanks for an informative report, Sandhya!
Best,
Debbie
