What is Air Pollution?

Air pollution is the introduction of chemicals, particulate matter, or biological materials that cause harm or discomfort to humans or other living organisms, or damages the natural environment into the atmosphere.

That is Air Pollution in the scientific description, but in my opinion air pollution is all caused by humans. We are the cause of the earth having extreme changes in our planet. We are the ones responsible for all the damage that we are causing because of the fact that we are humans that are unconscious of the damage we are creating to our own habitat.

Air pollution is not only affecting the way we live, but it is affecting the way everything revolves. Starting with the fact that plants, animals, and the ozone is suffering from too much pollution. We have to stop building things that we don't actually need, also we are burning lots of materials that have secondary effects and they are the ones responsible for the earth's effects.

If we continue to pollute the consequences will be harsh, because if the plants die, then the oxygen slowly is going to start running out, and as we all know, humans do not function without any oxygen. Everything would run out and start dieing. Not only we are affecting the earth but we are too affecting our own health. People have died because of too much pollution, for example in my own personal experience I had too move away from Mexico City because there was too much pollution that you couldn't even see the blue sky anymore. Now instead of having blue skies you have gray skies, this not only is bad but also is the cause why people with heart problems and respiratory issues die too.

Pollution is not only the cause of the natural environment being damage, pollution is causing multiple damage. One of the things is that all the effects the earth is having with the earthquakes, tsunamis, low and high temperatures, all of these multiple problems are because of pollution too. It is all a mixture of human causes what is changing our own world, the one that used to be green and beautiful, now it is changing to a place that we don't even recognize.

In conclusion, air pollution needs to stop, because our world is going to end if it doesn't. We, humans, need to be conscious of the damage we have done and we first need to pay the consequences of our actions and now we have to face the reality that we need to make a lot of effort for us to change what we have caused. Air pollution NEEDS to stop now!
