Our planet is in danger!
Do you know that every year we cut down thousands of trees?
That we produce tons of rubbish?
Factories and cars pollute the air...
Our seas are full of chemicals....
Lots of animals are becoming extinct...
The question is: What are we going to do about it?
Here is a fact type article
1. Smoke from factory chimneys and fumes of cars pollute the air.
2. This pollution pours into the atmosphere and becomes acid pollution.
3.When there is no wind all this comes down to earth as acid dust. This acid dust eats away the buildings and makes people sick.
4. When there is a strong wind, acid pollution travels away, usually to the north.
5. There it falls on trees and mountains with the water and that is acid rain or acid snow.
