Name TWO sources of atmospheric pollution (air).?


Name TWO sources of atmospheric pollution (air).?

1. Automobiles = carbon monoxide

2. Industry = lead, carbon monoxide, respirable particulate matter

3. Agriculture = oxides of nitrogen

4. Power Generation = sulfur dioxide


Here are the pollutants.

Sulfur dioxide (SO2)
Annual average = 60 碌g/m3
24 hour = 80 碌g/m3

Oxides of Nitrogen (NO2)
Annual average = 60 碌g /m3
24 hour = 80 碌g /m3

Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM)
Annual average = 140 碌g/m3
24 hour = 200 碌g/m3

Lead
Annual average = 0.75 碌g/m3
24 hour = 1.0 碌g/m3

Carbon Monoxide
Annual average = 2.0 碌g/m3
24 hour = 4.0 碌g/m3

Respirable Particulate Matter (RPM)
Annual average = 60 碌g/m3
24 hour = 100 碌g/m3

Uhhh, air and people?

carbon dixodie

emmison fuels

Car exhaust, and coal buring power plants, anything that burns fossil fuels, gas, oil, wood, coal etc.

cars & factories

combustible engines. volcanoes

cows and cigarettes

Chemical plants
Automobiles

plants

chlorocarbons and stryofoam

cars and oil refineries.mostly industry

Pine trees-ozone; volcanoes-co2,sulferdioxide;(bonus) ocean-fluorocarbons

carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons

Ozone and Methane

Car emissions and factories.

The largest sources of pollution are of natural origin....volcanoes, natural fires and methane released from rotting organic matter. Humans actually contribute little.
