Answer 1

Ways to overcome air pollution:

• Use of alternative fuel for cars, such as CNG or electricity.
• Planting more trees to act as natural sinks of carbon dioxide.
• Put taxes on carbon emissions and even higher taxes on gasoline so that people and companies will have incentives to limit the emissions of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases in the air and pollute less. [1 Mark for each point]
