Air Pollution

029 - Air Pollution

In this video Paul Andersen explains how air pollution is any chemicals in the atmosphere that negatively affect human health. Primary pollutants (like CO, VOCs, NOx, SO2, PM, and Lead) as well as secondary pollutants (like Ozone, nitric acid, and sulfuric acid) are included. Regulation of air pollution and technology can mediate the health threat.

Mr. Anderson, I had you for AP Biology my sophomore year of high school. You were a great teacher. Now I'm getting my masters in public health at the University of Washington and watching this video as an assignment for my environmental health class. YOU ROCK!

You put one and hour lecture into 10 minutes the way I can actually understand! Thank you for your videos

Thank you so much for this explanation. I was struggling with some articles on the association between asthma in children and air pollutants. This gave a way better overview of the exposure.

I'm a uni student from Greece I might not know who you are but you helped me pass my final. Thank you so much

There are about 40 or 30 questions on the AP test about pollution, according to my APES teacher. You know what to mainly study now: you're goal is a 60%. You're welcome and May the 5th be with you (yes I know May the 4th was yesterday but today is the 5th), Happy Cinco de Mayo. (:

I wish I had known how available these were, because I started watching these videos last night and I woke up this morning to review. My test is today....

Another fantastic video!! Subjects that you choose for your videos are AWESOME!!! You surprise me every time!! You are talking about really fantastic and yet ordinary things from every day life. These are the things that many people should know about. Or some of us wanted to know but we couldn`t find anybody to explain us. Well unless somebody is studing this on college but for us who haven`t study that we don`t know a thing about it. And you explain it in such a great way!! Scientific but yet so easy to understand even those who don`t know anything about science. Luckily I do but many friends of mine don`t so they are very appreciate for your videos. No one on You Tube or anywhere does the videos that you do! So thank you so much for making them! I wish you happy New Year and all the best in 2016! I am looking forward for more new and exciting videos in new year. Big greetings form Serbia and happy holidays!! :)

Prof. Bozeman - thanks! This is a great overview for my community college course - Fundamentals of Public Health - indoor/outdoor air pollution.

[mariapavez]

Wow! Brought clarity to what I'm studying! Thank you for the simplification and explanation of the air pollution!

Ozone (O3) is a secondary pollutant formed by the chemical reactions between VOCs and NOx in the presence of sunlight

I want this kind of education in Laos, we have a very high PM 2.5 but less people pay attention to it

[ahadsafdarku]

Thank You So much for this Lecture Mr.Anderson, Respect from Pakistan🇵🇰

Good sum up video. Just a thing, in europe, we also include "heavy metals", not just mercury in the list. In fact, we have to monitor As, Ni, Cd and Pb but Hg isn't mandatory I think.

[chainleetemplo]

your videos are very good and have a wide message thank you
