	1/ How do industry and transport cause pollution ?
	2/ How can I help ?
	3/ What is the pollution ?
	4/ How can industry help ?
	5/ What cause pollution ?
	6/ What about air pollution ?

	B. ___ Mainly industry and transport. If you go to any city, you will see too many factories, too many cars with not enough people in them, and not enough public transport.
	C. ___ Factories and vehicles produce waste which goes into the air and rivers and spreads all over the land. Poisons in the waste build up over the years and harm trees, plants, animals, and people.
	D. ___ Waste gases build up in the air, and dissolve into raindrops, forming a weak acid. This "acid rain" can fall far away from the country which produced it, killing trees in forests and fish in lakes and rivers.
	E. ___ If companies clean their waste gases before releasing them into the atmosphere, there'll be much less air pollution and no acid rain. But this can be expensive and it needs all the world's companies to do it.
