Take Action To Reduce Air Pollution.

Did you know that every year air pollution kills three times as many people as car collisions and road accidents? It causes acute and chronic respiratory diseases (bronchitis, asthma, lung diseases, sinusitis, etc.). The very scary fact is that air pollutions are responsible for 3,000,000! deaths worldwide every year.

Preserving the quality of the air around us is indispensable to life, so people around the globe are taking action to reduce air pollution and so we should.  Don't wait for your college or your friend to act.  Make the first even a very small step.  Try to use bicycle or try an electric bike instead of driving a car.

It is common thinking that one small, polluting action does not endanger the future of the planet. In practice, however,  the repetition of such damaging actions leads to accumulation of all these small acts that takes on dramatic proportions. In the same way, a small, isolated gesture to preserve the environment will not improve matters on its own. It is all the simple gestures, repeated every day by millions of people that will have a significant effect when added together. If the majority adopts them as a new way of life, they will contribute to preserving the planet and its riches for future generations.

Do the first move.  Use bicycle whenever and wherever possible as a nice alternative to the car. Bicycle emits no air pollution.  Bicycles are silent, and riding a bicycle could be even considerably faster in a traffic jam.
