Reducing Air Pollution by Walking, Cycling and Public Transport

Air pollution is a global problem. Sources of air pollution is primarily the burning of fossil fuels for energy for industry and transportation. Basically a form of air pollution particles (dust, gas, lead) and gas (Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Sulfur Oxides (SOx), Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), hydrocarbons). Air polluted with particles and gases can cause health problems of different levels and types, depending on the variety, size and chemical composition.

In general, the effects of air pollution on the respiratory tract can lead to:

1. Irritation of the respiratory tract. This can cause the movement of the cilia to be slow, even stop so it can not clean the respiratory tract.

2. Increased mucus production due to irritation by pollutants.

3. Mucus production can lead to narrowing of the airways.

4. The destruction of bacteria-killing cells in the respiratory tract.

5. Swelling of the respiratory tract and stimulates cell growth, so that the airways become narrowed.

6. The loss of cilia and the cell layer of the mucous membrane.

As a result of the above, will result in breathing difficulties that foreign objects including bacteria / other microorganisms can not be expelled from the respiratory tract and this will facilitate the occurrence of respiratory tract infections.

How to reduce air pollution is one of them by cycling, walking and public transport

.

Transport is a sector that accounts for most greenhouse gases and causing climate change. motor vehicles that use fuel oil gas emissions that can pollute the air. To prevent pollution of the environment on our activities or travel mobility

1. If not much, biking or walking is transportation should we choose to use within their daily activities. Cycling and walking not only reduces the amount of pollutants causing pollution but also help us better

2. If a long distance, we can use public transportation, like buses, trains, and so forth. The consideration is to reduce the volume of vehicles and gas emissions are generated every day

3. Sharing vehicles. A company or school, or personal proposition should provide special transportation such as buses or school employee may transport employees and students who have a direct route.

4. Imposed a three-in-one system clock. This is done to make efficient use of vehicles, ie at least three people inside a vehicle.

By considering doing the 4 things above, we have participated in the prevention and reduction of environmental pollution.
