Air Pollution
(name, title)
Executive Summary
An evaluation of the implications of environmental air pollution on
human life and the macro, meso and micro level steps being taken to change
the current status of air pollution is the purpose of this site. The method of
analysis used involved researching the actual hazards of air pollution on
humans, what solutions government agencies have proposed/implemented
(macro), what steps cities across the United States have taken (meso) and
how you (micro) can take a “step toward” solving the air pollution problem.
The conclusion I have drawn from this research is that with the abundance of
evidence supporting the idea that air pollution has become a serious problem,
our society (individuals and businesses together) needs to adopt a holistic
pro-active stance against air pollution.

Introduction
In order to maintain a concise, yet informative evaluation of my research, I
have categorized my findings in to four parts:
Part 1: The effect of air pollution on human health.
Part 2: Actions taken at the macro level.
Part 3: Actions taken at the meso level.
Part 4: Actions to take at the micro level.
I will discuss each part listed above and I will argue for a more holistic, pro-
active and more connected approach to tackling the problem of air pollution.
My final thoughts will probe you to think about the role you do play in our
society’s future and ask you to act on incorporating new thoughts.

Garrett’s quote above is from an eye opening book about the “Human
Factor” and emerging infectious diseases. Although the book describes
exotic places like the Amazon jungle and Saharan Africa, an often overlooked
place for emerging illnesses is right where the majority of humans live ... the
city. The city is the center for modern life as we know it. Yet, the city is also
becoming a center for death and illness.
Air pollution is a popular environmental problem that people rally
around. As a society, what are we actually doing to solve this problem and
help prevent an epidemic that is quietly arising out of the inner city?
The disease that is becoming a quiet killer in the inner city is asthma.
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease that causes tightening of the chest and
difficulty breathing. Asthma has no single cause, but episodes can be brought
on by a variety of factors working alone or in combination. Environmental
epidemiologists...
