This cartoon is about a man telling his wife that even breathing is now a health hazard. The city that they are standing in is full of smoke caused by factories and cars. The artist is trying to convey the message that the world is undergoing serious pollution, and these gases will ultimately lead to global warming.
The air quality in cities have been dropping over the years, as every where around the world industries are growing, and the number of cars on the road will continue to increase. There is a real problem of too much greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, trapping heat and causing a global rise in temperatures, which is also known as global warming. The air in certain cities are so polluted that it has become a health hazard, and it is hard to stop such pollution, because it concerns the city’s industries and transportation.
However, people nowadays should make use of improvement in communication and technology to develop either new ways to counter the waste gas, or other forms of technology that will not produce waste gases in the first place. Global warming is a problem that is faced by the whole world, and every country should do its part to help solve the problem.
