New York is a very popular state where many people come and go or even decided to stay and follow their dreams. New York City is known for its tall buildings and wonderful restaurants that people come to see and dine at. While the city has its positive side to it, it also has its negative side which is pumping out smoke from rooftops that is causing air pollution. Air pollution has been slowly increasing in New York City which is putting many of its residents at risk of becoming sick. The cause of air pollution is from rooftops smokes and vehicles and many more. According to an article, “By the Numbers: Air Quality and pollution in New York City,” by Jeremy Hinsdale, it states, “One important measure of air quality is the amount of fine particulate matter that can be found in the air. PM 2.5 are small particles that are two and a half microns or less in width and are produced by vehicle exhaust, fuel combustion, power plants and other sources.” This gives us an idea as to what is causing air pollution in New York City. When you walk on the street during a cold season you could see many buildings are letting out dark smoke from the rooftop which is not good for the environment. As one of the most popular boroughs in New York City, Manhattan is crowded with vehicles and many of its buildings and restaurants need fuel to operate. With extensive use of fuel we’ve created a big problem for us which is air pollution that will not only have a negative affect on us also the environment that we live in.

I believe air pollution is a very important topic today because in order for us to live we need air and it is a big problem on how we live and it can have a negative environment on today’s society. I believe this can be a 5 page. I like the part how you used New York city as your location. Some suggestions that I give to you is that you should look at the whole picture and see how It can affect us from different angles, see what the people say and turn it into your say.

I also feel like you should elaborate more and add more meat to the sandwich but aside that great topic.
In my own perception air pollution is very wide and important people should pay attention to it as most of us know that it has harmful or poisonous effects. It is a debatable topic because people have different opinion regarding to this topic and can get up to five page of length as needed. The research is base on New York City but I suggest it can be more specific to one neighborhood or borough because NYC as a hold might to too wide to write. The research can be done either naturalistic observation or experimental research .
Your research topic is very broad so finding research should be easy for you. It is also a very controversial topic which I could imagine will make it more interesting for you to discuss. Though, I wasn’t able to tell what your research question was since you provided a lot of textual evidence in your proposal. I also wasn’t able to understand what the purpose of you discussing the topic was. I think you should work more on forming your research question and thesis so you won’t get lost when writing your essay and conducting your research.
I really like your topic air pollution, your missing a specific neighborhood in NYC just narrow down your topic on air pollution and also create your map on which specific place in new York city you want to focus on causing air pollution.
