Air pollution


In this article "Air pollution in Asian cities spurs health worries" discusses how the Asian cities are affected by the pollution. This pollution makes health problems and affects the economy too. Some governments make good ways to help the people to breathe easily. A lot of people get sick from the air pollution which is around them. Also, the children who are under five are affected by breathing the air specially lung disease. The air pollution kills half a million people every year. These deaths occur especially in developing countries. They said this problem has good news, which is that people use vehicles, and bad news, which is that air pollution still, is at high levels. This problem will affect and kill people if the governments do not find an answer.

The Asian and American governments should control this problem before it gets bigger. The air pollution affects the people and causes a lot of disease like heart disease and lung cancer. There are two ways to solve this problem. The factories should be far away from the cities, and the governments should make rules for people and the factories.

First, the factories should be far away from the cities. When the factories are far away that will save the people's lives. For example, when the people near the factories breathe the bad air that will make disease for them. The factories make the chemical things which affect people's health and the air pollution. For example, when we make items like vehicles in a factory, we have to emit harmful gas. The emission from factories is easy to spread out to neighbors and the toxic gas floats in the atmosphere for a long time. Nowadays, transportation systems such as cars, trucks, trains, ships and airplanes, are more common in the world. These systems have been developed rapidly, and they make our life more convenient. We use them wherever we go, so we can’t live or survive in this mobile society without these systems. On the other hand, the transportation systems have a bad influence on our body and the air pollution. All of them emit abundant toxic gas from the factories. The factories should be far a way to save the people.

Second, the government should make laws for the factories and the people. When the governments greats the rules, that will save the people. For example, give the factories a fine when they build near the cities. The government can close the factory or make them more money for that. In addition, the rules for the people will help them to save their life. For example, the people must check their cars and examine themselves at least every six month. Also, the people who live near the highways will have worse health because they breathe bad air. The government should make fine, for the people who do not follow theses instructions. The people should know the rules and they must follow these instructions to save their life.

My opponents said that the government cannot control this problem. The governments can control this problem when they make the rules which I explained. The government can make advertisements about this problem and tell the people how the air pollution affect, them. For example, they can put it on TV, radio or the newspaper to remind them every time when they forget.

In conclusion, the air pollution affects us when we breathe it. The governments should find solution to this problem before it gets bigger. Many people and animals will die if we do not find the answer. Also, we need to help them to save our life too. We hope to follow the rules and the factories too, to make good and beautiful air.
