4  Carbon Monoxide (CO)  Nitrogen Oxides (NOx)  Sulfur Oxides (SOx)  Industry  Transportation  Power generation (burn fossil fuels)  Volcanoes  Forest Fires  Dust storms

5  Negatively affects human heath  Respiratory system  cardiac system  eye irritation  Cancer  Environment  Damages plants, animals, ecosystems

6  Reduce/Minimize  Alternative fuels  Fuel efficiency  Public transportation  Clean Energy sources  Recycle  Regulations

7 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrzCS0ZEar4 Pencils actually write with a form of carbon called GRAPHITE not lead.

8  Lead (Pb) Metal processing (smelting) Batteries Transportation fuels  Particulates dustsmoke salt spray fumes fogmist  Volcanoes  Forest Fires  Dust storms

9  Negatively affects human heath  Respiratory system  cardiac system  eye irritation  Cancer  Environment  Damages plants, animals, ecosystems

10  Lead  Alternative fuels  Fuel efficiency  Public transportation  Scrubbers in metal industry  Regulations  Particulate  Minimize construction and exposed ground  Reduce overall pollution  Less driving  Alternative fuels

12  SO 2 & NO 2 + H 2 O = acid rain * Industry * Transportation * Power generation (burn fossil fuels) * Volcanoes * Forest Fires * JUST ADD WATER

13  Damages leaves, trees eventually die  Accumulates in soils damaging plants  Accumulates in lakes/streams kills fish disrupts entire ecosystem  Damages certain building materials (limestone, marble, concrete)  Reacts with certain metals Problem near industrial areas Areas with non-reactive bedrock/soil

14  Clean energy (not fossil fuels especially coal)  Scrubbers on industry smoke stacks  Can increase lake pH but expensive and temporary

15 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpTJYSu1CUs

16 NOx + hydrocarbons (transportation exhaust) + solar radiation = TROPOSPHERIC OZONE + other hazardous substances  Big cities  warm sunny climate  Worse if air stays trapped in local area

17  Lung irritant  Interferes with photosynthesis  Damages plastic, rubber, and elastic materials

18  Use mass transportation  Fuel efficient vehicles  Don’t fill gas tanks during daylight hours

20 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBu3vltczRw IN THE STRATOSPHERE

21  Ozone (O 3 ) molecules in STRATOSPHERE destroyed by  CFC chemicals - from  Propellents  Air conditioning  Refridgerators  solvents

22  Skin cancers  Cataract (eye damage)  Decreased plant health  Damage to ocean phytoplankton

23  Problem noticed in 1970s  Montreal Protocol 1987 170 nations agreed to reduce or eliminate the production/use of CFC chemicals.  Showing improvement – expected to be ‘normal’ by 2050

24 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLY8m- dXOxo Tropospheric bad Stratospheric good

25  Greenhouse effect – gasses in our atmosphere keep temperature moderated by trapping sun’s energy  It is good and important for life  Carbon dioxide CO 2  Methane CH 4  Water vapor H 2 O  See Atmosphere Structure notes for sources Before we talk about Global warming….

26 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzCA60WnoMk

27  an increase in greenhouse effect (temperatures)  Because of human caused increase in CO 2 emissions  Burn fossil fuels  deforestation

28  Ice melt (glaciers, Arctic, Antarticta)  Sea level rise  Ocean Acidification  Extinction, spread of tropical diseases, etc.

29  Clean energy, energy efficiency, car pool  Less use of fossil fuels  Reforestation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJAbATJC ugs

31  Coal, Natural Gas, Oil  Formed from ancient plants/animals (350-225 Million years ago)  Underground mined or drilled/pumped out  Produce air pollutants and greenhouse gasses when burned https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6VCTh1iWdM

32  Solar  Wind  Hydroelectric (dams – tides)  Geothermal  Expensive to set up, manufacturing can produce pollutants, localized area
