Effect of air pollution
Air pollution affects the health of people and other animals. Air pollution can affect the health of people and animals, destroy crops or stop them growing properly, and make our world unpleasant and unattractive in a variety of other ways.
Human health
Air pollution is bad think if we think about it. Sometimes the connection between air pollution and human health is clear; an example is in the Bhopal Disaster in India. And one more example is the incident in London in England. when thick, deadly pollution known as the Great Smog, caused by people burning coal in home fires and coal-fired power plants, killed about 4000 people. Some study suggests may be 10-20 per cent of cancers are caused by air pollution but cancers …show more content…
At the time it's not an visible pollutant, carbon dioxide has gradually built up in the atmosphere, along with other chemicals known as greenhouse gases. Together, these gases act a bit like a blanket surrounding our planet that is slowly making the mean global temperature rise, causing the climate (the long-term pattern of our weather) to change, and producing a variety of different effects on the natural world, including rising sea levels.

Ozone layer is the damage to a part of the atmosphere. Basically, ozone is an air pollutant—but the ozone that exists in the stratosphere is definitely the opposite: it's a truly natural chemical; it saves from the harmful of the ultraviolet radiation of Sun. At the time of the 20th century, people began to use large amount of chemicals called chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), because they worked very well as cooling chemicals in refrigerators and propellant gases in aerosol. It destroys the ozone layer and produces the holes in the layer, which passes directly the dangerous ultraviolet light to the earth. In the 1980s, large "ozone holes" began to see over Antarctica, motivating many countries to unite and sign an international agreement called the Montreal Protocol, which quickly decreased the use of CFCs. Because of that, the ozone layer however still damaged is wont to get back by the end of the 21st
