Слайд 2

Modern smog is a type of air pollution derived from

vehicular emission from internal combustion engines and industrial fumes that react in the atmosphere with sunlight to form secondary pollutants that also combine with the primary emissions to form photochemical smog.

Слайд 3

Type Of Smog
Photochemical smog
Volcanic smog
Inside our homes
Sulfur Dioxide
From burning fuel for

energy

Слайд 4

Photochemical smog
Photochemical smog is therefore considered to be a problem

of modern industrialization. It is present in all modern cities, but it is more common in cities with sunny, warm, dry climates and a large number of motor vehicles. Because it travels with the wind, it can affect sparsely populated areas as well.

Слайд 5

Volcanic smog
An erupting volcano can also emit high levels

of sulphur dioxide, creating volcanic smog, or vog.

Слайд 6

Inside our homes
Some of these pollutants can be created by

indoor activities such as smoking and cooking

Слайд 7

Sulfur Dioxide
Sulfur is present in all fossil fuels and is

released as Sulfur Dioxide when the fuels are burned. Sulfur Dioxide reacts with oxygen gas to give Sulfur Trioxide

Слайд 8

From burning fuel for energy
The exhaust from burning fuels in

automobiles, homes, and industries is a major source of pollution in the air.

Слайд 9

Smog is a serious problem in many cities and continues

to harm human health. Ground-level ozone, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide are especially harmful for senior citizens, children, and people with heart and lung conditions such as emphysema, bronchitis, and asthma

Health effects

Слайд 10

London
The Great Smog of 1952 darkened the streets of London

and killed approximately 4,000 people in the short time of 4 days (a further 8,000 died from its effects in the following weeks and months).

Areas affected

Слайд 11

Mexico City
Within one generation, the city has changed from being

known for some of the cleanest air of the world into one with some of the worst pollution, with pollutants like nitrogen dioxide being double or even triple international standards.

Слайд 12

Tehran
In December 2005, schools and public offices had to close

in Tehran, Iran and 1600 people were taken to hospital, in a severe smog blamed largely on unfiltered car exhaust.

Слайд 13

United States
A NASA astronaut photograph of a smog layer over

central New York.

Слайд 14

Los Angeles and the San Joaquin Valley
The millions of vehicles

in these basins plus the added effects of the San Francisco Bay and Los Angeles/Long Beach port complexes contribute to further air pollution.

Слайд 15

Southeast Asia
Smog is a regular problem in Southeast Asia caused

by land and forest fires in Indonesia, especially Sumatra and Kalimantan, although the less political term haze is preferred in describing the problem.

Слайд 16

First, watch a series of animations and movies depicting the formation

of air pollution.
Then, learn to understand the Air Quality Index (AQI) in your area.
Next, get familiar with Ozone Action Days and why you should never ignore them
Then, follow the National Air Quality Forecast.
Finally, familiarize yourself with the effects of smog on your health.
