This article is about how Air pollution kills around 7 million people every year, accounting for one in eight deaths worldwide, according to a report from the World Heath Organization (WHO) released March 25. Thankfully, the problem is getting more media attention.According to the 2014 edition of our Environmental Performance Index (EPI), a biennial ranking of countries produced by Yale and Columbia universities, India and China both tie for dead last in terms of populations affected by poor air quality. Nearly the entire population of both countries is exposed to harmful particulate matter less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter, known as PM2.5, which can penetrate human lung and blood tissue and contribute to lung disease and premature death.
This article is interesting because it shows how us humans can get along with eachother and resolve a problem. I believe that the government should get together and start trying to resolve things again. Like in school people get in groups to work on something and we assign different parts so each part can help eachother. The governement should do that and the world will be a better place.
