Hi, I'm Yan, and I live on a farm in Asia. In the city, where my father works, there are many factories. He says he can always see the smoke the factories let out put into the air. Sometimes the air is so dirty that dust covers his bike and the leaves of the trees.

Do you have lots of factories around you?
Do they pollute your air?

Hi, I'm Yan, and I live on a farm in Asia. We draw drinking water from the big river next to us. The water usually stinks and tastes really bad. I often get sick from our water. We let our animals drink from the river, and many get sick too.

How does your water smell?
How does it taste?
Does it make you sick?
