Chapter 9: What To Avoid
A lot of people want to contribute to making the world a safer place to live; the one that is free from pollution. However, not all of them know how to do it right. Most of the time, they are not aware that what they are doing pollute the air instead of making it cleaner.
The following are some of the most common mistakes that people commit when it comes to air pollution control:
1. Driving Short Distance: Most people know that driving contributes of the increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. Yet, many people still choose to use their car even when they are just travelling at a very short distance. If you are just driving to a place around the block, consider taking a walk or riding a bicycle.
2. Leaving Appliances Plugged-In Even When Not in Use: Homeowners often leave their appliances such as TV plugged in thinking that it will not consumer electricity especially since they were in “Off” mode. However, leaving these devices including phone charger plugged in actually consumes electricity that in turn increase air pollution.
3. Buying Factory-Farmed Meat: Unknown to many, industrial farming practices produce water and air pollution. In this regard, if more people are patronizing factory-farmed meat, companies will be forced to extend the time they produce these meats in order to meet the demand. As an alternative, consider buying meats of organic fed animals since they produce less carbon dioxide.
4. Taking for Granted the Importance of Trees: As the world becomes more modernized, different infrastructures are being built. Roads are also continuously being improved to provide individuals with a more comfortable travel. However, in some cases, trees need to be cut in order for these projects to push thru.
