Oxides of nitrogen A mixture of gases that are composed
of nitrogen and oxygen.
Released by a variety of agricultural and forestry activities as well as fuel burning
activities and cigarette smoking.

These hazardous and potentially
fatal chemicals, as well as over 70
more, are affecting us all.

You are breathing them in everyday.

They are making us sick.

Australia's air pollution death toll
is higher than fatalities from road
accidents.
![Page 16: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
1700 people die annually from
road accidents.
![Page 17: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

2400 people die each year due to
air pollution.
![Page 19: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

This number increases if long-term effects of air toxics on cancer are included.

And it’s not only humans that are
slowly being poisoned; the
environment is suffering too.
![Page 22: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
These chemicals are thickening the ozone
layer.
![Page 23: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
It gets thicker and the Earth gets
warmer as more and more of the Sun’s rays are getting trapped in the
Earth’s atmosphere.
![Page 24: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
![Page 25: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Carbon dioxide is the biggest contributor to the thickening of the
ozone layer.
![Page 26: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
By the end of the 21st century, carbon
dioxide levels will have incresed by up to 75-350% (compared to pre-industrial levels)
![Page 27: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
As the Earth heats up, our plants and animals are dying because they can’t adapt to the high
temperatures.
![Page 28: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
This problem is only getting worse.
![Page 29: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Imagine if all plant and animal life
disappeared and you did nothing to
stop it.
![Page 31: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
You might think that there is
nothing that you can do.
But you can!
![Page 32: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Taking simple actions can make a world of difference.
![Page 33: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Turn off unnecessary electrical appliances at the power point wherever possible.
![Page 34: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Make it your goal to purchase 'Green Power' - power
generated from clean, renewable energy
such as solar or wind.
![Page 35: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Wear warmer clothes as your first action to
keep warm, before
deciding to use a heater
or other heating
element.
![Page 36: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Purchase and install
energy efficient
light bulbs.
![Page 37: Group2- Air Pollution](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062707/558627e0d8b42a4c578b47f0/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Together we can take these small
actions to create a better world for today and the
future.
