Motor vehicles emit many pollutants including Hydrocarbons, Carbon Monoxide, Nitrogen Oxides and Carbon Dioxide. This is not good. Here’s why.

Hydrocarbons

Where do they come from?

Hydrocarbons are released into the atmosphere when fuel is either not completely burned or evaporates into the air before combustion.

Why are they bad?

Eye, throat, lung irritation, as well as cancer are major threats from Hydrocarbons. Children and people with health issues are the most susceptible, but everyone can be affected.
