Two kids that live in New Delhi take part in a study that measures the amount of air pollution inhaled a day. Ammya lives in a more wealthy and clean part of the city, and she also has access to air purifiers. Monu lives in a slum near a polluted rive. Monu is exposed to more than 3 times the amount of pollution.

This article followed around two kids on their day to day life in a city that is extremely polluted. One child is from a wealthy area and the other a poor area. It was pretty insane the difference in air qualities throughout their day. Because the poorer child spends way more time outside his air is very polluted compared to the more wealthy child who is almost always indoors with air purifiers in the rooms she is in.]]> 2021-04-30 18:47:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479597319 Natalya: 4 58383 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479597891 Cancer risk in Louisiana 
I think the Denka chemical plantation should be closed down because the chemicals coming from it is making the air bad which is causing so many people to get sick and die. In reserve Louisiana Denka isn't showing that they care about the people living in that area. ]]> 2021-04-30 18:47:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479597891 Liam: 2 58158 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479598675 In this article I do think it could have been worded better, And it talks a lot about one big study done in a more relatively big city.

I did not realize that there can actually be deaths caused by power plant particulate emissions. Not only are there deaths, Ohio had 1,351 early deaths from them in 2014, which is sad and crazy]]> 2021-04-30 18:47:32 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479598771 Kenji:1 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479601435 Race and income group can be effected death by PM2.5 and the black low-income american have the highest risk of death from power plant.]]> 2021-04-30 18:48:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479601435 Jared:4 58243 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479603213 Cancer risk in Louisiana

It's so clear that those who deal with environmental racism refuse to move out of their communities. Their reasoning makes sense, too. I think it's very inconsiderate that the company headquarters shut him out, too. ]]> 2021-04-30 18:48:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479603213 Greyson:1 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479609758 Study: Black, low-income Americans face highest risk from power plant pollution.
I already knew this because of a chemistry unit but this went more in depth on the cause of the racial disparity rather than the effects it has on humans.]]> 2021-04-30 18:50:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479609758 Jason: 3 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479612661 This info-graphic follows the reality of two children living in the world's most polluted capital city, New Delhi, India.

My greatest takeaway is just how significant the disparity in quality of life is among children living within miles of each other. The impoverished kid, Monu, is exposed to over 5 times more pollutants than Aamya is in a given day. This significant exposure is estimated to eliminate about 5 years off of Monu's lifespan, while an upper-middle class Aamya is estimated to live 4 years longer. ]]> 2021-04-30 18:51:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479612661 Erik 3 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479614460 This article was about the levels of pollution in different parts of India. It followed two different kids one was in middle class the other was in a poor neighborhood. In the poor one almost all day the levels of pollution where over two times that of the middle class family. It is crazy that there is that much a difference.   ]]> 2021-04-30 18:51:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479614460 Greyson:4 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479617451 Cancer risk in louisiana.
I think that all uranium based power plants should switch over to thorium. Thorium is less radioactive, produces less waste, it's more predictable, and even makes more energy than uranium. There is no reason to use uranium over thorium.]]> 2021-04-30 18:52:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479617451 Aidian: 1 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479621473 Study: Black, low-income Americans face highest risk from power plant pollution

I think it is interesting how people are targeting low income people to pollute rather than put the plants in the open where no lives.

A gentlemen lives near this power plant and has lost many loved ones to the cancer that this power plant is causing. This man has gone to the headquarters in Tokyo to speak about how the emissions of this power plant is effecting "his people" They still haven't done anything about it and don't seem to care. A lot of the people that live close to this power plant are also low income.]]> 2021-04-30 18:54:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479624960 Sofia-1 60704 https://padlet.com/ktdupui/Bookmarks/wish/1479626496 Study: Black, low-income Americans face highest risk from power plant pollution
This wasn't really new information for me because we did a unit on it chemistry but it is still interesting.
