Air Pollution

The sustainability issue I have chosen is air pollution. Some causes of the issue are cars, factories and people. Cars are one of the issues because of gas, whether it be a run down car or a very sporty car they are both bad for the environment. They release smoke, toxins and other gasses because of petrol which go towards the atmosphere, causing our atmosphere to break down and allow more heat inside of Earth. People have tried to solve this issue by creating electric cars. They are run by electricity and work like any other car. An example of this is Tesla. They are an american based car company that sells electric cars that are used in everyday life. The cars are run by batteries that use electricity to run. For as long as 220-310 miles! A disadvantage is that if you overcharge the battery, like any other electronic item the battery will start to drain quicker. Another way to cut down on air pollution is to reduce the use of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels like coal and oil, create gas that breaks down our ozone layer, that means that we have a better chance of getting skin cancer and global warming has a chance to strike even harder.
