One of the main causes of air pollution is the rapid urban development . For example, in Vietnam, a lot of people have moved from rural areas to urban ones such as HCM city, Ha Noi capital, in the search of better jobs and services for themselves. As a result, the population increase of these urban areas become overwhelming, thus brining a high level of air pollution

A second cause of the air pollution could be considered to be the increase in the number of vehicles in some Asian countries. Motorbikes are very cheap and quite affordable for most families. For example: it is quite common for each familiy to have 3 to 4 motorbikes in Vietnam. As the number of vehicles increases, the levels of air pollution follow the same trend.

A third major cause of air pollution is the clearing of forests using fire. In some countries all over the world such as Brazil, Indonesia and Sudan where the population is booming people have to clear forests to make room for buildings, schools, hospitals and supermarkets. Using fire to clear forest is the cheapest available tool. As the result, the smoke which comes from fires, affects and pollutes our air quality.

In conclusion, Air pollution comes from 3 main sources: urban growth, an increase in the number of motorbikes and clearing forests using fire. Development is always an ultimate goal that human being wants to achieve. However, earth is everybody's home and nobody likes living in a dirty home. Together, both of government and citizens have to take actions to protect the
environment around for us and future generations.
