![]() ![]() When we pollute the air, it will affect people and animals. Human beings will not get good air to breath. If one person pollutes the air, it affects everyone in the community. Some of the things we do to pollute the air are by smoking, burning around. Also, burning around kills some ants in the soil. Over 6500 Ghanaians die every year from air pollution, according to a research report by the World Health Organization (WHO). The situation is worsened by the fact that acute respiratory illness caused by air pollution is one of the top 10 causes of outpatient hospital visits in the country. This is really affecting the nation?s economy because we are losing our great human resources such as doctors, lawyers, engineers, etc.
I am advocating to all nations across the world that they should stop or minimize the rate of air pollution. REFERENCE
