Mexico city is 2,240 meters above sea level and there is not enough air for the chemicals to mix so it sits above the city.
The pollution is mainly caused by the carbon coming out of cars and factories.
This can effect the population because of all of the bad oxygen they are breathing in by killing them but not immediately.

This cuts down on oxygen and makes thousands of animals lose their homes.
91 percent of the land that was cut down in 1970 was turned into cattle ranches

When oil is being shipped it spills and causes large oil spills.
