Don’t contribute to air pollution.

I was watching the news about COVID-19, and they showed some graphics on China’s air pollution from month to month this year. Because of the virus, many factories have been shut down, so the pollution in the air has decreased dramatically. It is amazing to see, and it was amazing to hear that they could see the blue sky now. Here are the graphics I am talking about:https://cdn.cnn.com/cnnnext/dam/assets/200301120947-01-china-pollution-exlarge-169.jpg

I hope that these graphics make them think of some alternate ways to produce the things they are producing in these factories. I certainly feel blessed to walk out my front door and look up at the blue sky- or gray as it is today. At least it is not full of fumes!

The best way for a single person to prevent air pollution is to drive cars that are more fuel efficient, so the fumes are not so hazardous to us or the environment. This includes all those diesel engines! We should not smoke or vape, especially around others. There is plenty of information on both of those and their negative impact on your health and the environment! Do not burn things that should not be burned in your burn piles and fire pits, like plastics or combustables that could put toxins in the air.

My recommendation- fire up the BBQ! That is the kind of smell we want in the air!
