Be safe and always be prepared as it is our choice to live healthy.
Don't do open burning and if you see your relatives, friends or neighbours do it, please remind them that air is not exclusively theirs to plunder.
But did you know that air pollution also can exist inside homes and other buildings? It can!
Indoor Pollution
Many people spend large portion of time indoors - as much as 80-90% of their lives. We work, study, eat, drink and sleep in enclosed environments where air circulation may be restricted. For these reasons, some experts feel that more people suffer from the effects of indoor air pollution than outdoor pollution.
There are many sources of indoor air pollution. Tobacco smoke, cooking and heating appliances, and vapors from building materials, paints, furniture, etc. cause pollution inside buildings. Radon is a natural radioactive gas released from the earth, and it can be found concentrated in basements of houses and buildings.
Pollution exposure at home and work is often greater than outdoors. A study done by the California Air Resources Board estimates that indoor air pollutant levels are 25-62% greater than outside levels and can pose serious health problems.
How to Prevent it?
Adequate ventilation is also a key to controlling exposure to indoor air pollution. Home and work environments should be monitored for adequate air flow and proper exhaust systems installed.
One of the most dangerous air pollutants is cigarette smoke. Restricting smoking or not smoking at all is an important key to a healthier environment.
There are many ways in solving this problem. Through knowledge and determination can we solve it. But it must come from the heart. We must believe that we are doing good to this world.
