Description
Summary:It is no exaggeration to say that humans only progressed this far because we found out how to use fossil fuels, like coal and oil, to feed our starvation for energy. In the short history of mankind, there were countless fate-deciding events that largely relied on these condensed forms of energy, with the first being the First Industrial Revolution. Since then, our reliance on fossil fuel only grew stronger, so strong that the world would come to a standstill if all fossil fuel were to disappear tomorrow. Unsurprisingly, the global air pollution indexes shot up the same time as the widespread burning of fossil fuels. Many different pollutants form what is known to us as air pollution, and the two air pollutants we will be further examining in this project is Sulphur Dioxide and Particulate Matter 10.
