• Carpooling is a good way to stop the pollutions from being released from cars. People can get rides with their friends .

• Also the government put in a law called the Clean Air Act. This makes less air pollution. This law is telling companies to stop and reduce so many air pollutions into the air. The law limits a certain amount of air pollutions they can release.
