Air Pollution in Mexico City
4
Transcript
Causes
- Surrounding forest fires give off smoke that contributes to the air pollution
- Also because of Mexico City's geographic location the smog gets trapped and that makes it harder to get rid of the pollution.
- Increasingly high ozone levels (ozone is sunlight reflecting on car exhaust and factory smoke)
- Mexico City is placed right in between the two sides of the Sierra Madre Mountains. So the city is in a bowl shape where the smog gets trapped.
Effects
- Breathing problems for children and elderly (neither are allowed to stay outside for too long).
- The city is covered by a thick veil of smog and air pollution levels have become dangerously high

The Importance of
treating the issue
It is time to contribute to the health and well-being of 19.5 million people in Mexico City!
If nothing is done to support this issue, the problem will just get worse and Mexico's capitol city will eventually become inhabitable. Being educated about the topic is important so that you will understand what the people in Mexico City are going through in their own homes. Air pollution is becoming more and more common around the world and it needs to be put to an end!
