At an individual level, how can you help reduce air pollution .write 250 words ?
Dear student,
Please find below the answer:
An individual can reduce air pollution by:
- Switching over from traditional fuels to alternative, cleaner fuels such as solar energy, wind energy, and hydropower energy. Unlike fossil fuels, these alternative sources of energy do not cause pollution and can be tapped from nature, where these are available in abundance.
- The burning of dry leaves causes a lot of pollution. Therefore, instead of burning them, one can bury these leaves in a compost pit. The leaf compost thus obtained can be used as manure for plants.
- Planting of trees is another measure that can be taken to reduce air pollution.
- Spread awareness about the importance of trees to our friends and motivate them to plant trees and nurture the already existing trees in their locality.
- By using clean fuels such as LPG and CNG instead of diesel and petrol.
- Always disposing the garbage properly and not burning it.
- Controlling the emissions from vehicles and household chimneys.
- Avoiding the use of cars as much as possible and by using public transport whenever possible.
- By not using vehicles for short distances.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Regards.
