AIR POLLUTION
Natural Disaster In my place
Hello my Hives friends
As a human being who lives on planet earth, I and all humans on this planet earth will experience and see a disaster situation that occurs around us. Many things trigger it, which affects the surrounding environment. As a teacher, I often explain disaster events and what the impact of the disaster is, as a lesson and study of an event which generally starts from the cause and ends with the effect.
If I may define, Disasters are a bad event that occurs and can happen to humans and the environment, these bad events and conditions will produce adverse impacts that will be experienced by humans and the environment and can threaten and disrupt and at the same time affect human life and environmental ecosystems as the impact it causes. In some cases, the adverse effects arising from disasters can be in the form of loss of life, destruction of natural ecosystems, and loss of property, and will also disrupt human psychology. What is clear is that disasters always leave sadness, suffering, and also fear continues to come in our lives also. Natural disasters as causative factors are also divided into two categories.
Natural disasters
Natural disasters are events or damage and destruction caused by natural factors themselves, triggers for these disasters are the result of movements, shifts, and adjustments to natural conditions from the supporting factors of nature as ecosystems.
Examples of natural disasters are
Earthquake

Volcanic eruptions
Floods are caused by heavy rainfall
Earthquake
Tsunamis
Moving ground and others
All of these disasters occur due to changes in natural conditions resulting from movements, shifts, and adjustments to natural conditions from the supporting factors of nature as ecosystems.
Natural disasters occur unnaturally
A natural disaster that occurs unnaturally is an event and also a condition caused by human factors that disrupt the earth's ecosystem, the result of these circumstances and events will have an impact on changes in patterns and the way the earth or nature adapts to situations that disturb it.
** An example of a natural disaster occurring unnaturally is like**

Global warming
Pollution
Starving
Until the experiment of a discovery that interferes with health,For this my topic, I am more focused on Pollution or Air Pollution, a disaster that has a large, very dangerous impact on the state of the earth and its air. This event is one of the disasters that did not occur naturally, which was caused by the human activity itself as a trigger. The resulting impact is a change in the earth's temperature and a decrease in the level of air quality one of the important elements in human life.

Circumstances like this affect people almost all over the world, and low levels of air quality are a frightening specter of disaster. Every year the level of particulates increases which results in global warming and air pollution and results in a decrease in air quality.
Smoke from our local refinery that can cause air pollution It was taken by myself
Nigeria which is one of the countries with the highest level of air pollution centered in big cities such as Lagos, Ibadan, Delta, River,Bayesa and several other city that has a level of pollution that means that the air that are coming from our refinery almost entering the threshold of bad air quality.
Pollution itself has a major causal factor that continues to this day and is of course a cause of long-term destruction. One of the biggest causes of air pollution and which continues to poison the air in Nigeria, and even the world, of which is caused by vehicle exhaust and all this smoke from our refinery which is the biggest nuisance in the occurrence of these long-term disasters apart from factory disposal activities, of course.
The high level of community mobility and increasing social standards or people's lifestyles are allegedly the triggers for increasing levels of pollution in almost all regions in Nigeria, and perhaps even the world. People tend to use private transportation to carry out various activities outside the home, and the level of sales and purchases of vehicles is increasing and causing traffic jams. The high level of congestion makes the remaining fuel products a trigger for increasing pollution and polluting the air as a long-term disaster.
Waste Bin in my area that can cause air pollution the pics was taken by myself
Other contributors to bad air are caused by factory smoke, smoke from burning waste and garbage, and smoke from cigarettes. The combination of air pollution which is called pollution will eventually have an impact on health problems in humans, some of which are:
Lung disease
Asthma
ARI disease
Eye Disease
And also skin
At a higher level, it will affect the ozone layer, the damaged layer will expose the world to solar radiation which triggers global warming.
So far, the government in any region has not been able to solve problems that seem small but have a very large impact later on. In this situation, humans always experience disasters that are invisible and far from the chaos. Steps that are heard at this time to reduce pollution are only limited to providing mass transportation both within the city and outside the city. The rest only echoes the use of vehicles that have emission tests. The emission test itself is one of the efforts or ways to test the level of vehicle fuel usage, as well as knowing the performance of the engine in carrying out combustion from the vehicle's engine.
To reduce the use of fuel as an appeal from the government to deal with pollution, You use vehicles that have passed emission tests, both the motorbikes that you use and the wheeled vehicles that is own by governments. Besides that, another small business that you do is to continue to reduce the level of air pollution in the home environment, by not burning household waste which can cause combustion smoke that disturbs the air quality around the environment
