    Study Notes

    Air Pollution

    • Factories should be built away from cities to reduce air pollution.
    • Factory chimneys should be made taller to release pollutants higher into the atmosphere.
    • Chemical processes can purify toxic waste products from factories for reuse.
    • Filters can be installed in factories to remove certain pollutants from the air.
    • Reducing the use of vehicles powered by petrol, oil and diesel is important.
    • The production of electric vehicles should be prioritized.
    • Population control is necessary to reduce pollution.
    • Planting more trees purifies the air and helps maintain a healthy environment.

    Air and Life

    • Air is also known as life-giving breath because it is essential for life.
    • Humans and animals require air to survive.
    • Humans can survive for some time without food or water, but without air, survival is impossible.
    • All living things breathe to survive.
    • Plants, like humans, are living organisms and require air to breathe just like us.
    • Humans inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide.
    • Plants inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen.
