4.11 gas pollution

- burning of fossil fuels results in sulphur dioxide gas
- this comes from factories and cars
- SO2 + H2O = sulphuric acid = acid rain
- acid rain can kill fish in the lakes and rivers
- carbon monoxide - fossil fuels are burned without oxygen
- blocks haemogloblin from carrying oxygen

- can lead to light headedness, a headache and in worst case death. This is caused by not having enough oxygen. In your body
