Tropospheric ozone
Tropospheric ozone (ground level ozone) = bad ozone (not protective) as a result of human activity
Sources: Burning of fossil fuels
hydrocarbons and Nitric oxides sunlight and NO2 formation of 03
Problems: Ozone absorbed by plant leaves
degrades chlorophyll so productivity is reduced
Damages crops, forests Degrades many textiles and rubbers
(think of an old rubber band!)

Photochemical smog
Smog is often seen as a brown haze above a large city
Sources: Mixture of ~ 100 primary and secondary
pollutants (ozone, gaseous hydrocarbon) Largely a product of fossil fuel use in
combination with sunlight (photochemical reaction)
• Problems: • Toxic gas (lead to breathing difficulties and health
problems)

Pollution management strategies Read the
information about Milwaukee’s air pollution
Use the replace, regulate and restore model on page 282 to evaluate air pollution and develop a management plan
