      Air gets dirty because of pollution that is mixed in with it, imagine spilling paint into water. Some of this pollution is man made, from car exhausts or factories. However, due to the amount of beef that we eat cow ‘flatulence’ is also a huge contributor as it produces methane.

      You can even see it sometimes around big cities when the weather is right. It is called smog then.
