• ANGIE: HELLO, MY NAME IS ANGIE. • CATA: I AM CATA. • TOMAS: I AM TOMY. • JUAN: I AM JUAN. • JULI: I AM JULI. • ERIC: AND I AM ERIC. • ANGIE: WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT… • EVERYONE: AIR POLLUTION! • JULI: FIRST, WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT GENERAL INFORMATION. • CATA: WHAT IS AIR POLLUTION? • ERIC: Air pollution occurs when gases, dust particles, fumes (or smoke) or odor are introduced into the atmosphere in a way that makes it harmful to humans, animals and plant. This is because the air becomes dirty. • JUAN: Things that pollute the air are called pollutants. There are two types othere are two types of air pollution: TOMY: Primary pollutants are those gases or particles that are pumped into the air to make it unclean. JULI: Secondary pollutants: When pollutants in the air mix up in a chemical reaction, they form an even more dangerous chemical ANGIE: What causes air pollution? CATA: Air pollution can result from both human and natural actions. Natural events that pollute the air include forest fires, volcanic eruptions, wind erosion, pollen dispersal, evaporation of organic compounds and natural radioactivity. ERIC: Consider a typical manufacturing plant: You will notice that there are long tubes (called chimneys) erected high into the air, with lots of smoke and fumes coming out of it. º JUAN:What are the effects of air pollution? TOMY: ACIDIFICATION: Chemical reactions involving air pollutants can create acidic compounds which can cause harm to vegetation and buildings. It can kill trees and harm animals, fish, and other wildlife. ANGIE: EUTROPHICATION: Rain can carry and deposit the Nitrogen in some pollutants on rivers and soils. This will adversely affect the nutrients in the soil and water bodies. CATA: SOLUTIONS ARE: • ERIC: Government (or community) level prevention • Pollutants facts: Governments throughout the world have already taken action against air pollution by introducing green energy. Some governments are investing in wind energy and solar energy, as well as other renewable energy • JULI: Individual Level Prevention • Pollutants facts: Encourage your family to use the bus, train or bike when commuting. If we all do this, there will be fewer cars on the road and less fumes produced. • ANGIE: Pollutants factsUse energy (light, water, boiler, kettle and fire woods) wiselY • JUAN: Pollutants factsRecycle and re-use things. This will minimize the dependence of producing new things. • ANGIE:And now we are going to present a video of Air pollution. • CATA: AND NOW, WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT CASES IN ARGENTINA. • TOMY: Where can we find it? • ERIC:WE can find it in .Mar del Plata, Bahia Blanca, La Plata, Capital Federal, Bahia Blanca, La Plata and Capital Federal. • JULI:What is happening? • JUAN: In Argentina, while most recent expansion in soybean agriculture has relied on available agricultural land. • CATA: There are aggressive targets to expand the agricultural area to increase soybean production for export. • ANGIE: NOW, WE HAVE A VIDEO TO SHOW. • (WE SHOW THE CASES IN ARGENTINA VIDEO) • EVERYONE: LET’S FIGHT AIR POLLUTION!
