it would be best if we lessen the use of harmful substances that causes the oxygen production to be limited. it is because of over using of resources that lead to this kind of problem. it would be like losing your toothbrush and you cant buy yourself another one. we need to be more conscious nowadays.

Well, in an attempt to try to preserve enough oxygen for my kids and my grandkids, I have converted to breathing less air, so in turn there will be more for my kids and grandkids. The sad thing is, is that Al Bannet is right. More reproducing more products are needed, more products, more pollution. Studies show that more pollution causes high rates in cancer and others diseases. It also shows that there were less diseases and sicknesses in the earlier years of human life, why is that? Less consumption of our resources and less pollution. I’m not saying “lets all forget life as we know it and become cavemen.” What I am saying is that we have smart enough people in the world that can come up with more energy efficient cars, heating, water purifying, Ect. that we all could live longer and benefit from it. If we have come up with everthing that we have had today, why can’t we come up with more nature nice technology? Food for thought.

If you buy this, then we could eliminate all industry and cars and we could live much, much longer. Im not drinking the kool aid either. Why are some always trying to fool the masses?

There are many factors effecting human health. If clean air is the dominant then those of the Roman Empire days should have lived several hundred years without coal burning boilers and cars. There is a history book listing people living up to 700 years. Then life cycles degenerated back to the mid 40′s (as was Pakinstan 20 years ago). Now with all this pollution it is over 70. Why are some always trying to fool the masses?

This is good news. But there are a few in Congress and a few in big national and multinational corporations who will hate it and say it happened because of increased regulation and that the regulations to improve health and the air cost money. The health and environmental improvements are ignored by this small group whoe only concern on this planet is to worship their pagan God money. The air improvement and resulting life expectancy improvement has been a hard thought victory against overwhelming odds. Best wishes, Michael E. Bailey.

Becky Fried:

Would you like to explain how air quality could possibly be improving when every year new coal fired power plants are built to supply elecricity to the growing population of consumers, and every year more jet planes are built to transport those consumers all over the overcrowded World? If you don’t understand what I am saying, think about the peculiar fact that the day after the 9/11 terrorist attack when all air traffic was ordered to land until further notice, many people marveled at how suddenly the air seemed so much fresher and enjoyable to breathe. Obviously, people get used to air pollution and don’t realize it is causing all sorts of chronic ailments, you too apparently, although with access to scientific equipment, you should know better — or is it that you do indeed know that what you are claiming is patently false?

As more coal fired power plants and jet planes are constructed to serve our growing population there is less clean air available. The atomobile industry is converting to electric cars, but there cannot be enough wind and solar power to serve our relentlessly growing population. Here is the solution: If we peacefully reduce our human population by about half, there will be plenty of resources for everyone. But life is driven by instinct to grow and grow and grow forever, or until disaster strikes, which will probably be a toxic plague of various pollution-related diseases, already beginning as cancer rates are increasing around the World. Breath deep.
