Why Polluted Air May Be a Threat to Your Kidneys

As many know, air pollution is very bad for our environment and for our health. But, specifically in newer research researchers found that it can also cause chronic kidney disease which is where a humans kidneys personally become unavailable and not able to filter or move the blood properly. So, as many people smoke and toxins are being put in and out of the process,specifically towards the kidney's, air pollution is just as bad. In other words, people who have obesity, diabetes, heart problems or any blood pressure problems have a higher risk of containing chronic kidney disease which means that those who have a lifestyle near air pollution should be informed on the dangers it's actually causing them. Therefore, air pollution is more potentially dangerous for the fact that it includes a fine particulate matter that is thin which causes it to stick and stay in the air longer making it more available for humans to breathe it in for longer amount of times. Air pollution in general is just overall bad because it is involved with things such as mercury and lead, and as though air pollution is coming to a decrease many should still take caution for any highly polluted areas as well as should know the consequences of being in or involved with an area that has such dangerous toxins. In conclusion, I particularly found this article interesting because I was never fully aware of how threatening air pollution could seriously be and this article does a good job explaining the precautions and negative affects to take notice on. I also, feel that anybody who wants to go deeper in the topic of air pollution should read this article to learn something different.

    It is very scary that our environment around us could give us such a deadly disease. If we don't protect our air it could not only effect our wildlife and environment, but it could also hurt many humans.

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
