- Major cities across the United States are affected by human activities that contribute to hazardous tropospheric ozone. Some cities are affected more than others based on both environmental conditions and city characteristics. The table provides information about the 2018 tropospheric ozone in four major cities in the United States as well as the environmental conditions and population density. (e) Describe one negative impact of poor air quality on human health that would be amplified in Los Angeles because of the number of days with hazardous levels of tropospheric ozone. (f) Describe one change that factories or industries in Philadelphia might have made that helped reduce the number of days per year with hazardous levels of tropospheric ozone.arrow_forwardyear. arses/38105/quizzes/220159/take Explain why there is such a difference in the amount of CO2 released on this island during the different months of the CO2 annual cycle (ppmv) -3 -1 123 Mauna Loa Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Month Using the graph above, choose the CORRECT statements as to why there is such a difference in the amount of CO2 released on this Southern Hemisphere island during the different months of the year.
