How can we prevent and control air pollution?

1. Reduce the burning of fossil fuels: Use alternative energy sources, such as solar or wind power, and reduce the use of coal and other fossil fuels.
2. Improve vehicle emissions standards and reduce vehicle-related emissions: This can be done by implementing stricter emission standards for vehicles, switching to electric vehicles, discouraging the usage of cars and improving public transportation.
3. Increase energy efficiency: Eating energy efficient appliances, light bulbs and insulation can reduce energy consumption and thus reduce air pollution.
4. Plant trees: Planting trees is a great way to reduce air pollution, as it helps absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
5. Limit industrial emissions: Industries should be encouraged to switch to cleaner production methods and reduce their emissions as much as possible.
6. Reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides: These chemicals can release harmful pollutants into the air, so it’s important to reduce their use.
7. Educate people about air pollution: Raising awareness about the causes and effects of air pollution can help people to take preventative measures to protect the environment.
