The air pollution level in four different countries in the year 2021 is shown at the bar chart. On top of that, the graph reveals, which causes have what share on the air pollution. In some countries the air is polluted more than in the others and the share of diiferent causes vary with each of the included countries (China, America, Japan and Australia).

The bar graph clearly shows, that the country with the highest air pollution is China. This also applies for every cause included in the chart, which are electricity generation, transport and industry. The level of air polluted by industry is almost twice as high as in any other country and is represented by 80 PPM. On the other, Australia is the least polluted country regarding the air. Every source of air pollution is below 20 PPM, more or less, on the same value. In comparison to Australia, Japan's air is more polluted by transport and industry, however, generation of electricity has the least share on that from all of the mentioned countries.

Last but not least, America generates quite high air pollution by transport (almost 60 PPM), which is the second biggest from these four states and by approximately 10 PPM less than in China. On the other hand, industry and electricity generation each represents around 30 PPM, which is in both cases much more than in Australia, but in comparison with Japan, the industry share on the polluted air is significantly lower. Overall, it's fair to say, that China is the biggest air pollutor from these states with Australia on the other side of this ranking.

Most of the people know, that smoking can be very dangerous and can even kill a man. However, lot of them continue to smoke regardless of the consequences. There are a few reasons why they smoke and why they can't or don't want to stop, but one of the biggest issues is that it not only damages the health of the smokers, but also of the people breathing the cigarette smoke. Therefore, we have to reduce smoking in society.

People smoke for different reasons. One of the causes can be the image. Some of them thinks, that smoking looks cool (mainly the younger people), thus, they want to impress their surroundings and smoke cigarettes, cigars or e-cigarettes. As the time pass, they become addicted to nicotine, which is the essential part of every tobacco product. Therefore, it is extremely hard for them to stop smoking, eventhough they are aware of the dangers of smoking. On the other hand, there are also some people, that have no intention in stoping this habit. They say it helps them to reduce stress and even possible health damages don't discourage them.

It's generally known, that smoking is dangerous and can cause the cancer of lungs, which can result in a death. Therefore, it's necessary to reduce smoking in public. However, the question is: "How can we do that?". Well, we can start by talking to our friends-smokers by explaining them the health threats and encourage them to stop smoking. Although, probably more effective way to reduce the number of smokers would be to significantly increase the tax on tobacco products or to ban smoking at several places. However, these actions aren't in the competence of ordinary people.

To summarize it, there are many reasons why people smoke and won't stop. Some of them want to look cool in public, others are already addicted to nicotine and many people smoke to reduce stress. We have to decrease the number of smokers, because smoking seriously damages health. One of the solutions could be to raise the price of cigarettes or ban smoking at different places, but the easiest way is to encourage your friends to stop this dangerous habit.
