MLS Environmental Engineering, Summarizing

 By Nate Feldman

Can anyone summarize the issues dealing with air quality and indoor air pollution and the dangers of exposure to indoor air pollutants?

 

*According to the article, indoor air pollution is just as dangerous as being exposed to air pollution outside.  This is because outside the pollutants are dispersed by the wind, but indoors they are suspended in the air, and we are all breathing the same air.  This causes major health problems, such as headaches, stuffy nose, and even ailments, such as cancer. 

 

*According to the article in the Philadelphia Inquirer, today we are going to get the biggest snowfall of the year so far.  The article mentioned that because of this snow, they decided to have the Super Bowl parade in Philly on Friday instead of today or Wednesday.  One key idea of the reading is that there will be more snow if you live south of the city.  It also pointed out that because it is falling during the late afternoon, it will affect people going home from work and other places.  The article talked about the time the snow will begin.  It will begin earlier if you are south of the city.  The article also covered how much snow has fallen in Philly this year until now.
