With passing time, pollution has turned out to become a serious issue, that is not only affecting humans but also its effect can be seen in the climate. This growing pollution also has a grievous effect on animals and environment per se. The most prevalent type of pollution is air pollution which has indirectly triggered many environmental and health problems.
Air which has remained a free commodity till date when compared to water and other resources is slowly costing lives, making life difficult to be lived. Air pollution has many heinous health problems. This also affects pet health. Your pets are nowhere safe from falling prey to air pollution.
Air pollution is caused due to vehicular fumes, burning of fossil fuels, industrial emissions, pesticides, power plants, and other emissions of methane and other chemicals. These deem a threat to lives and health of pets.
Recent studies have claimed pollution’s effect on dog’s brain, causing them increased inflammation and neural changes similarly responsible for causing Alzheimer's disease in human beings. It has also been found, how cats and dogs develop asthma, diseases of the nose, throat, and bronchitis when they are exposed to air pollution for a prolonged time.
Now coming to the crux, how can we save our four-pawed little buddies from falling prey to air pollution. Well as the old saying goes, Cleanliness begins at home. Keep your house clean of dust and harmful sprays. Further, avoid smoking indoors. This will prove healthy for your pet’s health but also your own health. Using eco-friendly leashes, sweatshirts and dog collars in order to reduce pollution.
When taking your dog outdoors, take care not to go into areas if intense traffic. Traffic leads to the emission of toxic particles which can lead to heinous health problems. Other ways of saving your pets out of air pollution are to use less toxic particles promoting them in gardens. Opting for eco-friendly wall covers and furnishing elements, these paints have low volatile organic density, which will reduce air pollution to a considerable extent.
The most important of all these, in order to reduce air pollution care and efforts, need to be taken by each and every human. The human who are considered to be the most intelligent creation, it's in our hands to save this planet and creatures from dying due to air pollution. Go eco-friendly by giving an intelligent and conscious effort to save our planet Earth.
