Content
Air pollution
Air is made unsafe for breathing when it contains unpleasant odour from faeces, dirt, poisonous gas and other rubbish. When air is polluted, it causes diseases or germs to spread to people. This can cause cough, smallpox, chicken pox, tuberculosis (TB) and measles. Polluted air can also cause suffocation. If people suffering from these diseases cough or sneeze, the germs that cause the diseases go into the air and other people could breathe them in, and be infected, with the diseases.
Sources of air pollution
- Cigarette smoking causes harmful smoke and odour that pollute the air.
- Bad odour from refuse dumped carelessly causes air pollution
- Smoke from a bad motorcycle causes air pollution
