How often do you realize that the condition of the air we breathe is always changing? ..... If we look at the last few years the air condition in big cities has started to change very drastically. If you often travel to big cities, then you are required to wear a mask in order to prevent breathing the polluted air.

It's different with those of you who live in areas that are quite far from big cities because maybe until now you can still feel the pleasure of cool and fresh air without having to travel using a mask. However, the healthy and refreshing air can change at any time if there are several things that affect it. So that you can better understand and understand about air quality, in this article, we will discuss:

1). Understanding of Clean Air.
2). Characteristics of Clean Air.

Maybe for those of you who live around big cities, you can rarely feel the environmental conditions with clean air. When you wake up in the morning, the refreshing cold begins to disappear and even the fog has begun to not be seen at all. Even though it was still early in the morning, the air was very hot and uncomfortable to breathe.

It may be different from those of you who live in the suburbs or areas.

Clean air is one of the main components so that living things can live comfortably and safely without having to worry about respiratory diseases. Air is a very vital thing for the survival of all living things in this world. Without air at all then all living things will not be able to survive long.

Not just any air can be consumed by us as living beings. All living things really need clean and healthy air in order to fulfill their daily life and needs and especially to be able to breathe normally. But what exactly is clean air?

Clean air is air that has many benefits for humans. Clean air is free from various substances that are not needed by the human body. Substances such as dust particles or harmful substances such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide cannot be found in clean air. Because of its clean nature, your body will not feel congested when inhaled and breathed.

Clean and refreshing air has a different character or characteristics from the air that you can find in big cities anywhere. Clean air has a pure character and feels fresh which is soothing when inhaled. Below are some of the characteristics of clean air that we can feel directly:

  • Clean air is air that is colorless and odorless. The pure air has no color so you can be sure when there is color in the air you see, you can be sure that the air is unhealthy and has been mixed with other harmful substances.

  • The characteristic of clean air is that the air has no odor at all. If you breathe air and smell it, it is certain that the air is mixed with other compounds in the form of gases and has an odor.

  • Clean air is also air that is not at all mixed with foreign objects. If when you inhale air and can feel something itching in your nose then the air contains solid objects such as dust.

  • The last characteristic of clean air is that it will feel cool and refreshing when you breathe it. We can even feel clean air directly on the surface of our own bodies.

So that you can measure the cleanliness of the air around you, a calculation called the air quality index is needed. Quoted from Wikipedia, the air quality index is a measure used to assess the level of pollution in the air. The air quality index is generally used by the government to assess and measure how bad the air quality is in a particular area.

Each city has a different index rate and depends on the air quality standards in their respective countries. The air quality index itself is measured from 0 to 500. If the number is higher, the pollution conditions in an area are very high and the air quality in that area is getting worse. If the index number has reached above 200, then you should use a mask when traveling so as not to experience respiratory problems.

Because currently air quality continues to deteriorate, you are required to play a direct role in maintaining the air quality. There are some simple things you can do to avoid adding to the index value of the air quality in your area. Below are easy ways that you can do yourself to maintain air quality:

a. Reduce Traveling by Vehicle.

The first way you can do to reduce pollution and maintain air quality is to reduce traveling by private vehicle. Use public transportation if possible. Using public transportation can also be a way to overcome congestion in big cities.

b. Car Maintenance.

The next way to maintain air quality is to maintain and care for your vehicle so that it does not produce dirty exhaust gases. If the exhaust emits smoke, it means that your vehicle is not healthy and needs to be repaired.

C. Planting plants.

Planting plants is the best way to reduce pollution because plants can absorb dirty air and produce oxygen that humans need. Plants can also make the air cooler and more comfortable.

Hopefully this post and as a bit of information can be material for us together, and hopefully we can take a few lessons for our health for sure.
