Does the Sun give off air pollution?

Question

I'm doing a science project && I need answers!

Answer 1

The Sun is not in the air. It's in outer space.

Answer 2

Your search must be directed -HOW SUN CAN HELP POLLUTION CONTROL ?
The fourth state of matter is Plasma - it glows as Earth's glow , Aura , and Himalayan plants shine like Christmas Tree.
The ions attract and trap the pollution. The plant leaves also traps many Pollutants. In effect Sun provides Life Energy.
Further search- Van-Allen Belts around Earth Planet acts like a shield.
If your Sensitivities are not protected, Life cannot exist on this planet and a Human Being in depth is linked as "YOGI".
Christ is a Yogi of high order and You celebrate Christmas like Deepavali in India. This is enlightened Spirit beyond polluted Minds that drag-on conflicts.
In essence without SUN, and links to subtle fields there is no life on this planet.

Noble Cause : Human-Being, Environment, Divine Nature and Harmony

Answer 3

Depends on what you consider pollution I guess. One of the most common ways that carbon-14 is formed (a radioactive isotope of carbon used in carbon dating) is when cosmic radiation that bypasses the earths magnetic field and bombards neutrons out of nuclei in the air. The neutrons bombard ordinary N-14 converting it into C-14. Because of the current trend in the weakening of the magnetosphere, is it possible that this is also contributing to the increase in carbon dioxide levels in our atmosphere? It's something to consider. Carbon-14 combines with oxygen the same way as other forms of carbon and is absorbed by plants in the same way. (if it didn't, we wouldn't be able to use it for carbon dating) So the short answer to your question, yes, the sun can contribute to what we consider pollutants in the atmosphere. (particularly the upper)

Answer 4

There is no air on the Sun so there canot be any "air pollution."

The Sun is mainly Hydrogen and Helium heated to extremely hot temperatures in the region of 10,000 degrees F on the surface, so that were there to be any kind of "pollution" it would have been irradiated and burned completely in an instant.

Answer 5

The sun is in a vacuum and it doesn't pollute the earth itself but, with the help of humans, the ultraviolet energy from the sun does exasperate the ozone depletion the problem. Here is what happens:

Humans produce CFC's - gases without any natural source, these were commonly uses as refrigerants and propellants is aerosol cans. The ozone-depleting gases with the largest potential to influence climate are CFC-11 (CFCl3), CFC-12 (CF2Cl2), and CFC-113 (CF2ClCFCl2).

CFC stand for Chlorofluorocarbons, compounds containing chlorine, fluorine and carbon only, they are very stable long living type of organic compound.

It is now clear from measurements in polar firn air (air trapped in polar ice), that there are no natural sources of these compounds. We drill ice cores and analyze trapped air bubbles, this has shown no CFCs earlier that man began to produce them.

The only significant natural source of chlorine is methylchloride (CH3Cl) and this compound has a relatively short lifetime of just 1.3 years. This compares to troposphere lifetimes of between 50 and 100 years for the CFC's.
Because the CFC's are not broken down by the hydroxyl radical or by sunlight in the troposphere, they can reach the stratosphere.

Once in the stratosphere, they are broken down by high energy ultra-violet radiation from the Sun to form reactive chlorine radicals. Production of these radicals does not, necessarily, lead to ozone depletion and it is only under special conditions that chlorine radicals lead to significant ozone loss.

There are five conditions that must be met for the ozone reaction to occur and the chemistry is very complex, but when all five conditions have to come together, to form the ozone hole. One of the conditions is extreme cold, this is why the major ozone depletion occurs only over the poles (mainly Antarctica) and only in the spring as soon as the Sun rises after the polar winter.


Finally, the sun is also involved in summer smog which ironically is caused by too much ozone. Summer smog, common in major cities, is caused by pollutants, mainly ozone, which collect in large cities. It is formed when heat from the sun causes ozone to build up in the troposphere, by combining nitrogen oxides and organic compounds. The result is a yellow/brown haze that has been shown to cause many health problems.

Answer 6

The rays from the Sun created ozone at low altitude, while ozone protect the Earth's surface from the Sun's rays, ozone is considered to be a pollutant when at low altitude.

Answer 7

No... but, interactions with the sun's light - most notably, ultraviolet - can cause reactions between chemicals in our atmosphere, turning them into pollution.

Answer 8

Rhetorical nonsense, there is no air in space.
