The smog or smoke plus gas is one major causal factor that contributes to air pollution. It is the old concern issue that people around the world take against with. I hope there will be a better solution for such, protect our ozone layer.

yes, good for you, but where i live its very hard to travel by cycle its actually a good alternative to an automobile as its healthy to exercise and reduces environmental pollution but unforunately i dont think i can cycle my way into the place. I mean i am a student and my educational institute, thankfully, is in a walkable distance so i sometimes oft for walking instead of taking bus but what i observed from these walk is that i am damaging my lung by inhaling a lot of polluted air since the traffic is at the highest near my home and also my skin gets are dirty so that i have wash it with warm water every day. This is bad for health so i stopped walking. Even if individuals restraint themselves its the larger populace that is making the most of damages
