Pollution Solutions

Adapted from the “Pollution Solutions ”article by L. Prescott, which appeared in Ranger Rick magazine

Air Care

Worldwide, the stinky problem of pollution has grown. More and more factories, cars, and trucks add their bad breath to the air. But the battle against air pollution is also growing. Many U.S. cities still have dirty air. So most states are ma­king tougher laws against air pollution. And scien­tists are looking for ways to make factories and cars run cleaner.

Cleaner Rain?

Chemicals called sul­fates puff out of coal-bur­ning factories around the world. When the sulfates mix with clouds, acid rain falls and harms lakes, rivers and plants — and the crea­tures that need them. Also, the wind blows the air around. So, sulfates from one place can fall as acid rain many miles away. The good news is that many countries are working hard to end acid rain. Scientists are figuring out ways to make coal burn more cleanly. And in many parts of North America, the amount of sulfates in the air has dropped. So less acid rain is falling!

Dirty Water?

Nearly half of the lakes in North America are pol­luted. Often, companies dump chemical wastes into water. But scientists are finding a solution to this problem, too. Some rivers have been made much cleaner. And there are big plans to clean up the Great Lakes, the Chesapeake Bay, the Mississippi River, and other bodies of water.

Good Energy News

When we burn coal and oil for energy, we cause pollution. But little by little we’re getting more energy from the sun and the wind. This energy is clean and renewable (that means we’ll never run out of it). Energy from the sun now helps heat and light more than 100,000 homes in the United States. More good news: many electric com­panies have discovered that saving energy is better than making more energy. So they can send experts to homes in the U.S. to look for energy «leaks»-places where energy is be­ing wasted. Everyone needs to have his/her home checked for leaks.

Poisons In Food

Farmers often spray chemicals on crops to pro­tect them against pests. These chemicals are called pesticides. Scientists have found that pesticides often end up in our food. Pesti­cides can cause health problems — especially for kids. But here’s the good news: the U.S. government is helping farmers find ways to protect crops without us­ing many pesticides.

Cleaner Cars

Cars are the world’s biggest air polluters. But scientists are trying to in­vent cars that pollute less. Farmers in Illinois are try­ing a fuel in their tractors made from soybeans. And there are electric minivans being used in at least six U.S. cities.

Trash

In 1993, each person in the United States threw away about four pounds (1.8 kg) of trash daily. Put it all together and you’d fill 45,000 trash trucks every day! About 1/3 of this waste comes from packaging. But here’s a bit of good news. Some compa­nies have begun to use less packaging. And lot of U.S. cities have started recy­cling projects. In these ways we’ve begun making less trash. Everyone should look at what they throw away and try to throw away less.

So, dear world, you may be covered with dirt and gasping for air. But many people are working hard to fix you, and many kids are rooting for you, too. By the time these kids have grown up, you may do your clean old self again!
