Asthma is caused by Air Pollution

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/03/180327094001.htm

In the article I read a study was conducted and found that 38% of kids with Asthma is caused by air pollution. The study showed that the higher exposure to air pollution a kid has the bigger chance the kid has to get asthma. This shows that all the things that could stop air pollution need to happen to save the kids. For the studies they used models to track air pollution. The one good thing that came out of this is that we now have a reason to take better care of the environment.

    That is very interesting that air pollution can cause asthma, not many people would have thought this, so this leads to more reason why people don't pay any mind to fix it. But it is good that people are now aware of this so it will help people and the environment.

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
