The title of this article is called " car exhaust fumes cause lightning strikes ". This reason I chose this article was of course because of its title. It stuck out to me because never in my day have I heard anyone say that car exhaust can cause lightning. I had to hear it for myself. It says that during the working week air pollution rises because of all the cars on the road. It says that this effect has been seen to modify rainfall patterns both at the weekend and during the week. It causes large uplifts of air and bigger clouds. It states that lightning strikes have increased by 25% in areas of high pollution during the working week. I thought all of this was very interesting because all we ever hear about is how car exhaust is bad for our ozone and what will happen in the future. With this, it is happening now. People need to realize that they are having an effect that is happening now and not something that is happening in the future. People need to realize this and change their ways of living because of it.
