comes as syrians to celebrate the end of half a century of oppressive rule by a house of leaders lashara on this side and his father. they're with us now clement a is up next and we'll have more news for you at the top. the next hour here we can join the so you don't thing and see you the same way you expect and more different things from life than your parents. i just want to pursue what that's my thoughts or you think your kid is 2 different, risky, irresponsible, reasonable stopping port is nonsense. i want my son to the doctor to in the cloud. it's time to, to get your generation with a sleep asked. and then when generations to mash, watch now on you tube
7:16 am
b w don't, you mentioned this kind of fun. it feels like therapy the these colorful rings this acid lake and this blue fire all exist because of one element. so for the yellow stuff can be both completely harmless and extremely toxic. it's found in our bodies, our food, and also in volcanoes. if you've ever smelled a rotten egg or fart, the copper was sulfur, but unfortunately, heating it up also makes a highly toxic gas. it's also responsible for one of the scariest sounding environmental catastrophes, acid rain, and contributes to millions of deaths every year. by extracting and burning fossil fuels were spewing it into the atmosphere. the story of sulfur as both the lumen crisis and environmental success and not enough people are talking about it. the
7:17 am
software is one of the more abundant elements in the universe and combined with other elements could become one of the smell, is you can find it in the ocean, the earth's crust and the toxic atmosphere, venus. it's also the 3rd most common mineral in our bodies. our bodies are made up of around a 150 grams of sulfur, but in its solid pure form. it's both tasteless and odorless. compounds of it are found in many fluids, including broccoli, cauliflower, a tongue in garlic. sofa is actually responsible for the strong smell that garlic makes much crushed. and other software compound gives broccoli and cauliflower their distinctive taste. and if you find yourself with a particularly smelly onion, that's because of a cell for compound as well. these strips tests for sulfur compounds and liquids. the good thing about software is that it can prevent bacteria growth and stop alcohol from turning the vinegar. it's also signing water from wells or springs.
7:18 am
seems like this. burling tap water doesn't contain much sulfur, but this beer and wine definitely do. another place you'll find software is in the sky a little bit. so for doc set up the atmosphere, conserve is what we call cloud condensation nuclei, essentially looking a little platforms for clouds to build around the cows. father is a climate scientist and researcher clouds. that can be more reflective about smartlight back to space. so the combined effects lead to about half a degree celebrate of cooling globally, compared to a world where we didn't have any service on this. in other words, so for in the atmosphere actually slows down, global warming seems pretty good, right? but so for actually the dark side it's one of the most reactive elements on the periodic table. that means it changes form easily when in contact with other elements. if also super inflammable. that's why matches are covered with it. the
7:19 am
sofa keeps the fire burning long enough to light a candle. ready ready burning silver can look like a hell scape, like this indonesian volcano when matches are let a small quantity of assault for gases created. and this matches a mini version of the software pollution problem. ready those gases, these yellow cell for molecules, form and other elements are toxic. one of them is hydrogen sulfide tucker with 2 hydrogen atoms. this gas is found naturally in wetlands swamps and hot springs. it's what gives human and animal waste. it's nasty smell because it's created in small amounts by bacteria in your mouth and got and inhaling it is one of the leading causes of workplace that's from chemicals because exposure can kill you immediately. another nancy cell for gas is software dioxide. if i were to light this pure cell for on fire, it would change more fun powder into a bad situation really quickly here. sulfur dioxide would come off of it,
7:20 am
which is really not good for health. and that thing i shouldn't do. that's exactly what we've been doing for a long time on a planetary scale. so software relation is meant nicholas by bidding fossil fuels, edmunds and any auto research as chemical pollution in the environment. and also industrial. dyslexia is refining petroleum and snow to mid totes. this visualization prepared by green piece with nasa data shows worldwide software pollution coal plants in russia and oil refineries and saudi arabia and iran are some of the biggest sol for gas emission hotspots, worldwide. fossil fuels and naturally contain so for they can release so for gas when they're extracted and again when they're burned. another source of sulfur pollution is from the metal production. some metals naturally contain sulfur . it's also used during the purification process which can release pollution into the atmosphere a we didn't always know all of this. fossil fuel use took off around the 19 fifties
7:21 am
and it 1st everything was fine. but around the 1970s people started noticing something weird. the rain was more acidic than it used to be. remember how silver farms cloud, too much suffering clouds can react with other elements to form. so if you're an acid, an acid rain, oceans, lakes and rivers become more acetic hurting marine animals. it also affects the ph of soil. we know upon the recent, inspect the temperature in regarding a ph. he's also going to affects how would be plants are going to up. so the nutrients that they need to grow. but software doesn't need to rain down on us for it to have devastating effect. it's harmless in this form. but exposure to solve for gases can range from irritating the respiratory tract and eyes denija neurological effects. even dest sophie pollution from coal contributed to the near constant london fog of the 19th century. people suffered and died from as 9 bronchitis, which still place those living near oil refineries and cold plants today. and
7:22 am
silver particles also form pm 2.5 fine particles that are significant part of global air pollution. if you light a match a couple times or if you like, sitting around a campfire, um, you know they are placing it, but it isn't good for you. but if you're not doing that all day every day, it's not going to be that bad for your health. whereas, you know, if you're living in beijing and your air looks like a piece, oops, that's where it really starts creating various severe medical problems as my heart disease and stuff like that. and a lot of that software pollution is caused by burning coal need to film this outside for obvious reasons. or as coal like business essentially just pulled out of the ground. it's still contains a lot of solver. apart from volcanoes, burning coal is responsible for more software pollution than anything else. when burned in power plants device is called scrubbers can remove solver from the emissions. but if money or infrastructure is lacking,
7:23 am
scrubbers don't end up doing so much scrubbing. there's obviously also called that is burned outside of power plants. can berlin, for example, some apartments of coal furnaces for heating during the winter, and this is the exact fuel that they use. and those emissions come out of the chimney. they're putting sulfur directly into the atmosphere worldwide. china has been the largest, a mentor of sulfur and recent decades. because industrialization there was heavily reliant on coal. and along with burning coal, came out to our air pollution responsible for over $1000000.00 deaths per year. because of this, the country has recently taken major steps to reduce self or emissions in other countries. the amount of coal being burned is actually going up. when you electrify you wrote, you know, they need to be some energy source in what is the quick image source. that is what it. so that's called but it isn't all bad news. if you haven't really heard much about acid rain or so for gas recently, because there's been a very big effort to stop it. the been
7:24 am
a lot of great musicians. i cross the wells where we would think to lead me to the district of sofa the to be a to most fear. much of the software is removed from oil and gas during the refining process already before it. so to consumer. extracted software is turned into pesticides, fertilizers, and so if you're a gas it, because it's a by product of the oil and gas industry, we have a ton of in so much in canada, their solid software, just sitting around as a result, atmospheric sol, for gases of decreased significantly over the past decades and regulations are still getting tighter. 2020. so the 1st ones on shipping fuel before then ships brenda dirty is 12 full of sulfur. but in now the last decade or 2, there's been for studies about the health impacts and burning the steel in ports with a couple studies suggesting that somewhere in the range of $20.00 to $60000.00 people globally, you may die prematurely due to exposure to silver dockside pollution from shipping, and it turns out that about 10 percent of all of the silver dioxide that we make
7:25 am
globally comes from shipping. and with less software release into the sky, there are fewer clouds over the ocean. this usually good news has one small problem . fewer clouds mean less sunlight is reflected. this is predicted to one the planet equivalent to years of extra greenhouse gas emissions. quite a tricky trade off, but experts say reducing sulfur emissions is still worth it. the welcome batting. sulfur pollution is one of those rare environmental successes. this stuff is stopping us from putting our party hats on just yet. removing solver from fuels has caused a significant drop in worldwide pollution. we're going to see it fall further from the recent regulations on marine fuel. but there's still more software in the atmosphere than there should be an enforced. ready software regulations in one part of the world only partially solves the problem as well. refineries elsewhere are still releasing it into the air. so all regulations are important. shift away from fossil fuels is the only thing that will tackle toxic solve for gases for good. if
