[speaker001:] what kind of air pollution do you think is the worst
[speaker002:] in Philadelphia I think the worst is cars
[speaker001:] cars
[speaker002:] because there isn't a lot of manufacturing right in Philadelphia any more at least not any heavy manufacturing
[speaker001:] yeah but they couldn't there is a lot of different pollution you can get from cars right
[speaker002:] right a lot of pollution from cars and also the trucks that drive around through so I think transportation is the worst right here in the city
[speaker001:] um-hum there is carbon monoxide carbon dioxide
[speaker002:] oh right uh-huh
[speaker001:] nitric oxide
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] the all that kind of stuff
[speaker002:] and plus we get the chlorofluorocarbons I guess from the old refrigerator and old cars
[speaker001:] yeah and there's ozone
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] it's like uh from also like when you fill-up your car with gas
[speaker002:] well you know in Philadelphia they've got these gas vapor recovery nozzle on all the gas tank now
[speaker001:] oh yeah that's right
[speaker002:] if you go to the gas pump you it just sucks it back out
[speaker001:] yeah um-hum yeah
[speaker002:] it makes it really hard to tell when your tank is full though
[speaker001:] uh
[speaker002:] because you can't really lessen very well
[speaker001:] hum
[speaker002:] you have to just trust the automatic shut off
[speaker001:] oh
[speaker002:] so you can't really get it full if you are going on a long its really hard
[speaker001:] huh well let's see what else there's uh more more sometimes they say it more pollution inside your house
[speaker002:] yeah from all the gas stoves and everything yeah
[speaker001:] well I got the dry cleaning
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] that stuff is pretty nasty nasty um I know all the kind of fumes you can get from bathroom cleaners your aerosols
[speaker002:] that's true though most help aid don't let me use bathroom cleaner with bad uh chemicals in them any more
[speaker001:] chlorofluorocarbons chlorofluorocarbons chlorofluorocarbons or something like that chlorofluorocarbons that's it
[speaker002:] right they make me use Simple Green or um they will let me use Comet or self cleanser but
[speaker001:] what simple simple green is supposedly it not toxic really
[speaker002:] right it it suppose to be none toxics and its suppose to be good for the environment
[speaker001:] oh yeah yeah
[speaker002:] so they like that I prefer uh ammonia and um there's something my mamma gave me last time I was visiting her its a it's called scrub free it really makes a bad odor though so my housemate don't like that
[speaker001:] what is it
[speaker002:] scrub free
[speaker001:] scrub free huh
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] well
[speaker002:] you know I knew that the air in Philadelphia was not the greatest when I first came here it I lived where I could on a clear day see the Walt Whitman bridge but I couldn't see it for a a couple of months until it got to be winter time and the pollution cleared up
[speaker001:] oh really where are you originally from
[speaker002:] from South Carolina
[speaker001:] oh huh
[speaker002:] but the amazing thing I was out at San Francisco a few years ago and the air there is so clean
[speaker001:] well not always depends if you don't there if there's a brief stop then you get the uh smog
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] doesn't move like you're out in Lake Tahoe its like that you can really smell the gas fumes from cars the air is trap and it doesn't go anywhere
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] in fact the worst place is probably in Mexico Mexico City I heard is
[speaker002:] right on the top of the mountain yeah
[speaker001:] well they validated I think uh one or two hundred day uh days out of a year over three or four times the known you know the allowable limit
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] it crazy and uh some of the worst kind that our you can have also air pollution you can just have cigarette smoke stuck in
[speaker002:] oh cigarette smoke the worst place for air pollution of cigarette smoke is the laundry mat I hate that
[speaker001:] in a laundry mate
[speaker002:] right when people come in and they're smoking while they're waiting for their clothes and you take yours out and they're all clean and you want to hang them up and
[speaker001:] oh gosh
[speaker002:] there all these people smoking there
[speaker001:] um-hum really wow
[speaker002:] fortunately I've started going at an hour where not many people smoke
[speaker001:] hum
[speaker002:] but
[speaker001:] oh
[speaker002:] I really hated that when that was a problem for me
[speaker001:] I know which is worst cigar smoke or regular cigarette smoke
[speaker002:] uh boy um boy I'll chose regular cigarette smoke
[speaker001:] yeah hum
[speaker002:] but if there was as many people smoking cigars as there were cigarettes cigar smoke would definitely be worst
[speaker001:] uh I don't know its a lot of smoke out uh out her you can see um the New Jersey when you go by the refinery or even when you go across the Delaware River down by uh it passes away but down as you go down toward ninety five you see all that that stuff that comes out of the refineries
[speaker002:] oh right
