GASES
Since about 1850, though, human activities have been
releasing extra greenhouse gases into the air. This has
slowly propelled a rise in average temperatures across the
globe. Overall, the 2017 global average was 0.9 degree C
(1.6 degrees F) higher than it had been between 1951 and
1980. Thatâs based on calculations by NASA.

15. LEAD POSINING:
Lead is a cumulative toxicant that affects multiple body systems
and is particularly harmful to young children.
Lead in the body is distributed to the brain, liver, kidney and
bones. It is stored in the teeth and bones,
Lead in bone is released into blood during pregnancy and becomes a
source of exposure to the developing fetus.
There is no known level of lead exposure that is considered safe.
Lead exposure is preventable.
