- Synopsis
- KEEPING THE AIR CLEAN. If we don't stop pumping greenhouse gases into the air, by 2100 the earth may be 7 degrees F (4 degrees C) warmer. Without air there would be no life on our planet, yet we are now poisoning the air we breathe. It isn't too late; if we act now, there is still time to repair the damage we have done. The world's seven richest countries are responsible for one third of global warming. In Norway 92 percent of the air pollution that causes acid rain is blown in from other countries. If we stop producing CFCs now, the ozone layer could recover by 2050.
