What You
Can Do
Air pollution is a problem for
all of us. The average adult breathes about 3,400
gallons of air a day. Children are at greater risk
because they are more active outdoors and their
lungs are still developing. The elderly are also
more sensitive to air pollution because they often
have heart or lung disease.
Although much of the pollution in our air comes
from power plants, industrial sources and motor
vehicles, the choices you as an individual make
every day can increase or decrease air pollution
and can protect or threaten your health. You have
the power to change your home, transportation, and
consumer habits to help reduce air pollution.
