Pollution solutions
Lyle Prescott wrote about the pollution in Ranger Rick magazine. The air pollution has grown all over the world. Factories and automobiles are making it worst. Scientists are trying to invent cars that pollute less and experiments on cleaner fuels are going on (Prescott). The world is fighting the air pollution and the solution is to make tougher laws. Sulfate that puffs out of coal burning is mixed with clouds. However, the acid rains falls harming rivers and lakes (Prescott). Most Lakes, River and bays are polluted because of the runoff which is mixed with wasted chemicals and acid rains. But solutions are developing quickly. Some rivers have been cleaned and there are plans to clean many others. Burning coal and oil for energy causes pollution but a cleaner and renewable energy can be produced from sun and winds (Prescott). Farmers spray chemicals called “pesticide” on crops for protection. The pesticide causes health problems as it ends in our food. The daily trash is another pollution problem but most companies started recycling.
Many people are trying to reduce the pollution and by the time the world will be clean again.
