RE: Don't forget air pollution and its effects. Taking Imminent Preclusions

in #steemstem6 years ago

You say we must cut down burning fossil fuels. But what other reliable energy source are there? The major problem is finding a large source of green energy that is cheap.

Sort:  

Cutting down isn't total annihilation or elimination. Renewable energy sources aren't all that reliable, that's true, because, solar energy needs constant sunlight, hydroelectric energy needs constant moving water, wind energy needs constant wind and so on. And all these conditions can't be always met. I earlier stated that tackling air pollution shouldn't deny us our luxury. Even if these sources are not reliable, they can be used alongside fossil fuels to reduce the concentration of toxins. It also true that affording these sources are difficult since they are very costly, so if you can't don't bother yourself. Do what is within your power, and leave others with the resources to go beyond. I'm sorry I didn't add all these to the post.

Methods of tackling, within our reach include afforestation, proper refuse dumping, studying the vehicles we buy to get the one that consumes less fuel in long distancess.

In short, it may be difficult and extreme, but if we have concern, then we will do what we can at least, to reduce air pollution.

I'm not wrong to say that, before the time of high concentrations of these toxins in the atmosphere, we lived well. And don't forget the fact we are humans, we are brilliant enough to find complete solutions to our problems. We must think to survive, else mortality rate increases.

I agree with everything you have said. Even if we cannot afford to use green energy sources. We can contribute to helping the level of toxins go down by planting trees, using proper disposal methods are the likes. Thanks for the additional information.

I'm glad you understood and you're you're welcome
