London Type Smog



London type smog is the polluted air that once surrounded London about 100 years ago. The cause of this smog was the burning of coal. The particles in the smoke from the burning coal mixed with the moisture in the air and created "smog". The consequences of the smog were that the air was very black and people were getting sick from inhaling it. The main thing that people did and still do today is stop burning so much coal or not burn any at all.

HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!you did very good on your post i liked reading it! mine was on acid rain so i saw some differences. one difference that i noticed was that mine involves rain and yours involves smog. but something that is kinda the same is that they are both kinda caused by the same thing. They are both caused by the burning of coal! So ya!!! GOOD JOB!!
