There are many ways to prevent air pollution. These range from major changes to the way that energy is produced and consumed, through to small ways that we, as individuals, can help the environment. Stopping burning fossil fuels is an important part of preventing air pollution.
Reducing our dependency on oil is important. Seeking alternatives to traditional energy sources such as oil will help the environment and stop air pollution.
Clean energy sources, such as wind power, are a good alternative to traditional fuels. Not only are they from a renewable source, meaning that there is minimum environmental impact, they are also produced without the harmful emissions that cause air pollution.
Cars are a big generator of air pollution. Changing to hybrid or electric cars can help to reduce the amount of harmful emissions produced. Other alternatives include cycling. This is a great way to keep fit as well as helping the environment.
We can all help to reduce air pollution by looking for clean alternatives to fossil fuels that are used in the home. Coal fires may look attractive, yet they often contribute to air pollution. Clean burning alternatives are kinder to the environment.
Trees play an important part in reducing air pollution. Planting trees can help to clean the air as well as being a good means of offsetting carbon emissions. Many companies run tree planting campaigns to reduce their carbon footprint.
Transport such as airplanes use a lot of fuel and contribute to air pollution. Everyone can do a little to help reduce the pollution caused by transport. Businesses for instance, can reduce the need for staff to travel by investing in new technologies such as video conferencing.
Reducing our carbon footprint is an important part of reducing air pollution. There are many small steps that can have a big impact. Buying locally produced food, for instance, reduces the energy that is used transporting food many hundreds or thousands of miles. Switching lights off when not in use stop the burning of electricity needlessly. Here is some more interesting reading about the environment, including ideas of ways to prevent air pollution.
