Standard •  HS-ESS3-1: Construct an explanation based on evidence

for how the availability of natural resources, occurrence of natural hazards, and changes in climate have influenced human activity.

FLT •  I will be able to identify the effects of air pollution by

completing 12.2 Notes

12.2 Notes

• Noise level 0 • Copy down all bolded ideas • Raise your hand to question/comment • Be prepared to pair-share

12.2: Air, Noise, and Light Pollution

Air Pollution

Air Pollution •  Recall: Air pollution = when harmful substances

build up in the air to unhealthy levels • Urban air quality and indoor air quality are two

major areas of toxic pollution

Health Effects of Air Pollution

Health Effects of Air Pollution

•  Short-Term Effects: – Headache, nausea,

eye/noise/throat irritation, chest tightness, coughing, bronchitis, pneumonia

Health Effects of Air Pollution •  Long-Term Effects: – Emphysema, lung cancer, heart disease

Indoor Air Pollution

Indoor Air Pollution • Chemicals from carpets, building materials,

paints, and furniture often pollute the air inside a home or building

Indoor Air Pollution •  Sick-Building Syndrome

= When buildings have very poor air quality • Most common in hot

regions with tightly-sealed buildings (to keep out heat)

Indoor Air Pollution • Ventilation (the mixing of outdoor and indoor

air) is necessary for good air quality

Indoor Air Pollution •  Radon Gas = colorless, tasteless, odorless

radioactive gas.

Indoor Air Pollution •  Radon gas can adhere to dust particles that

people inhale, eventually leading to lung cancer

Indoor Air Pollution • Asbestos = Minerals that form in long, thin fibers

that are strong and heat-resistant • Asbestos has been used as an insulator and fire

retardant

Indoor Air Pollution •  It has been banned in the U.S. because it is

dangerous to inhale à can cause disease and heart failure

Noise Pollution

Noise Pollution • Noise Pollution = unwanted sound

Noise Pollution • Constant noise contributes to hearing loss – About 14.9% of teens have permanent hearing

loss due to technology – People living in quiet environments have

heightened hearing levels

Noise Pollution • Decibels (dB) = unit of measurement for the

intensity of sound •  Europe regulates music players to not exceed

100 dB of noise •  The U.S. does not have regulations

Light Pollution

Light Pollution •  Light pollution = excessive artificial light, such

as urban sky glow

6

Light Pollution •  Light pollution can increase headaches,

fatigue, stress, and anxiety

Light Pollution •  Light pollution also diminishes the view of the

night sky, affecting animals that rely on the night sky (such as migratory birds or sea turtles)
