Q- What’s the air quality like in your city?
A- Since the city of Nablus does not contain any heavy factories that emit toxic gases, we can consider the air that its clean.

Q- Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
A- Unfortunately no, because as I said before our country doesn't have any of those environmental issues. And for how our food is produced, its Its produced by a small farms comparing them to other countries and we use the old traditional methods in farming, and sometimes the big companies uses the modern methods.

Q- What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
A- By increasing the community awareness about the climate change, and proving how the people's awareness could be a reason to stop this global problem.

Q- What’s the air quality like in your city?
The air quality in my city is kindly good,Because there are no large factories that negatively affect the air, but the suffocating car crisis in the city causes air pollution, and settlement factories are one of the causes of air pollution.
Q- Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
In fact, I am not greatly concerned about climate change, because the State of Palestine is not a cause of climate change because we do not have factories that produce gases that pollute the environment,and we also work to produce food on agricultural lands such as Marj bin Amer.

What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
1-The best way to reduce climate pollution is by recycling factory waste and recyclable garbage.
2- People's awareness of the importance of the environment considers a major role in preserving the environment from climate pollution.

ِA -)
What’s the air quality like in your city?
As the city of Jenin is one of the greenest cities in Palestine and as a non-industrial city, the air in it is clean in most areas.
B -)
Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?

In my opinion, everyone should be afraid of climate change, because industrial progress continues in all parts of the world, as this problem is almost universal and affects the whole world, such as the global warming phenomenon, which affects Palestine .

C -)
What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
In fact, there are many ways to reduce air pollution, including:

• Increasing people's awareness of the seriousness of air pollution .
• Greater activation of the role of alternative energy .
• Establishing more laws that prevent random pollution operations.

PS: The measures to prevent air pollution may differ from one country to another, depending on the available systems and capabilities.

1- What’s the air quality like in your city?
You can’t say that you have a completely clear air in an area that has factories , a big population and many settlements , so I guess that the air quality in Bethlehem isn’t much polluted but also not clear and this is due to the factories in the city and in the settlements which are surrounding it .
2-Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
I’m not proud for saying that but actually I don’t worry about climate change and I think that most of the Palestinian don’t , this is related to the fact that we aren’t suffering from its bad effects on our nature yet , but I’ll work on caring more about it for it’s bad consequences we learned this unit. And about food , personally I do really worry about how and where it is produced because it has the most important role in building our bodies and health .
3- What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
In my personal view we can’t reduce air pollution before increasing the awareness of its bad consequences on the climate change and our nature for people in our community , so basically we should increase people’s awareness then we can start the other steps like using bikes instead of cars or the public transport instead of private cars , and trying to produce energy with winds instead if burning fuel etc..

Q- What’s the air quality like in your city?
A_ Well my city Tulkarm is a simple town it includes no factories at all ,the most of it are restaurants and small shops so it air is clean as it should be .

Q- Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
A_ no not a bit, if you asked me about food I will tell you that there is no healthy food today all of it is junk food and poisoned food because of the medical stuff which farmers but with it .

Q- What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
A_ I think that is not my concern it’s the government job to save the air and the environment that we live in but we can all of us stop cutting woods and stop using gas cars to use electric cars instead.

Q- What’s the air quality like in your city?
A- Since the city of Tulkarm is close to the settlement of Gishuri, which contains heavy factories that emit toxic gases, this has led to the air being considered unclean and toxic.

Q- Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
A- Certainly, because, as I said before, our country has these environmental issues that greatly affect human health and agricultural products or farms close to that region are affected by wind and dust that lead to the transfer of these toxic gases to agricultural plants.

Q- What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
A- Meetings with the Israeli occupation to reduce the gases emitted by the air to our products and to the health of our society and to expel these toxic factories to areas far from a population gathering or where there are greenhouses.

Q1: There are not many large factories that pollute the environment in Nablus, so the air is clean and fresh.
Q2: A- Climate change is a concern phenomenon to the whole world in general because of its consequences for humans. But at the moment and in my city, the climate is normal and it does not change quickly. That is because there are no big factories and other things that affect the climate.
B- The production of food, most foods depend on agriculture and are often produced in small factories, so there is no great harm to the environment or the climate.
Q3: The government should work to increase people's awareness of the importance of the environment, enact strict laws regarding the environment, reduce factories that affect the environment, increase reliance on solar energy and reduce energy using fuel that is supplied to factories, cars and others.

Q- What’s the air quality like in your city?
In the beginning, I live in a village far from the city and industrial areas, and my village is devoid of factories, so the air inside the village is very clean.


Q- Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced? In fact, yes, I am concerned about climate change because it affects us in the nature of the situation as well as agriculture and work within the village ،I also prefer to eat the natural food that we are accustomed to growing inside the villages, as opposed to that which is made inside the factories.

Q- What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?

In my opinion, factories cannot be dispensed with and what is produced inside them, but factories can put filters to reduce the escalation of harmful gases. As for cars, fuel can be replaced by electric power, and large areas of trees can be planted to increase the proportion of oxygen in the atmosphere،Through these measures, we can reduce environmental pollution.

Q1_ what is the air quality like in your city?
In my village, the air quality is very good, because there are no factories or any other things that lead to air pollution, but sometimes there is a stone crusher that emits large quantities of dust which leads to pollution.

Q- Do you worry about climate change?

Yes i am worry about the climate change because like we see in this period of our life we notes that the temperature that in the summer rise more than the years that went and decrease in the winter more than the past time and all of that is lead to many dangerous like kill many types of plants and the animals and many another things.

Q_ What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?

There are many ways to reduce the air pollution in my opinion the most important one is planting tree cause it help to take the gases from the air and take out the oxygen ,use the green energy in our life like use it in the cars ,houses and in the factories if that can and stop burning the rubbish and instead of burning it the government can resycle it and us e it by good way that help the community.

Q- What’s the air quality like in your city?
Since I live in a rural area in a village and there are no factories and other causes of air pollution, so the air quality is nice and clean.

Q- Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
I do not think that I care about such matters, because I live in a rural area and there are no environmental lawsuits that invite me to pay attention to this matter. As for the method of food production, our farms are small and not advanced for the large countries that use many modern technologies and methods.

Q- What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
The use of clean energy, such as solar energy, to reduce pollution from other types, such as the production of energy using fuel.

Q1- Generally the air in Jericho city is healthy, not polluted and that's because firstly it is a small city so there are not many people live here secondly Jericho is an agricultural city.

Q2- Personally I don't worry that much about climate change regardless of its importance. Yes, I do care about how the food is produced but if it tastes good then I care less.

Q3- The best way in my opinion to reduce air pollution is transferring to electric cars, of course, that will take some time to achieve but maybe in the near future it will be our reality.

Q (1) - What’s the air quality like in your city?
A (1) - I'd say it's not bad, even though Nablus has a lot of factories, but the good thing is that they are all established in a specific area that is far away from the city center and the populated areas.

Q (2) - Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
A (2) - I do, because climate change is a global matter that should concern everybody, because we all share the same planet. But when it comes to food production, it's not an actual issue in my country, because it's well controlled and observed by the government.

Q (3) - What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
A (3) - By telling the community about the dangers of air pollution, and increasing their awareness about the issue using media, and the internet. And by conducting some researches that can provide some possible solutions and instructions for people to follow.

Q1/ Because I live in a village, so it generally enjoys fresh, clean air due to the availability of natural reserves in it, its absence from the factories that cause air pollution and traffic congestion, and it has a good plant cover that helps increase the proportion of oxygen and reduce the proportion of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Q2/ Certainly yes, because climate change may affect the production of some crops. Each crop has a specific type of climate, some crops need a hot or humid climate and so on, and climate change may affect the psyche of the population in terms of enjoyment and recreation and in the nature of the skin, as the dry climate works on cracking the skin. / In terms of food production, the climate has a great influence on taste and quantity.

Q3/ By planting trees and flowers intensively around our homes, building factories away from housing and forests, Proper disposal of waste in areas far from the population,
The most important thing of all this must be to increase people's awareness of the need to preserve the environment and reduce pollution in it, because without the care and attention of people, all roads will go without benefit.

Q1 : - The air in my area is very good, but it is sometimes polluted due to some human behavior such as burning trees and cutting them, also in my village there are two brick factories near the main street in the area, so the gases and smoke from the factories and also the smoke of cars passing by the street cause air pollution in the area. ?//

Q2 :- Yes, I worry about climate change because we all live on a planet include various human activities that contribute to climate change and pollution, and also I worried about the food that I eat, as plastics and materials used in food production from oils and preservatives are all affected by weather factors and interact causing bad diseases on human health.

Q3 :- The best way to reduce air pollution is to impose instructions and laws on pollution, especially the air pollution that we breathe, also to educate society about the current situation and the negative effects of climate change on society and people together, and also some correct human behaviors that have a great role in protecting the environment and preventing air pollution like planting trees and reduce logging.

Q- What’s the air quality like in your city?
- A city like Nablus is characterized by relatively good air quality, due to the lack of factories located in it and even their presence in places far from residential areas.
And do not forget that the city of Nablus is famous for its love of planting trees and roses in the streets, and this matter helps to improve the quality of the air in the atmosphere and reduce harmful gases.

Q- Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
-Of course, I care about thedangers of climate change, but praise be to God, I live in a place where there is little air pollution due to the lack of factories, given that we import most things from abroad. And this is kind of a good thing because by doing this we are minimizing our impact on the environment..

As for food, I do not worry about how it is produced, because most of the people of my city have been working in agriculture since ancient times and using the traditional natural methods of agriculture, and there is interest on the part of the Ministry of Agriculture on this process so I think that our food is produced in a healthy way..

Q- What do you think is the best way to reduce air pollution?
- I think that the basic step to reduce air pollution is to work to increase people's awareness of the dangers of this pollution, and work to use renewable materials that are not harmful to the environment to reduce this pollution, there are many ways, but we have to start with ourselves so that we can continue to face this dangerous phenomenon

1/For me, my house is near a brick factory. Therefore, the air in the area is polluted air. Dust and smoke are very diffuse.

2/Of course there is concern.Because it is a global dangerous problem.

3/Food produced in Palestine is natural. There is control over agriculture and great care.

4/* Establishing factories in areas far from the population. .
* Reducing the use of fuel
* Use natural sources of energy such as air, sun, and water

1-About myself, my city Nablus does not have a lot of factories, fairly good fresh air and no pollution.
2-Yes, of course I care about climate change, but I live in an area. There is no pollution, so there are not many risks.
3-As for food, we take it from well-known people who work in clean farms, and people have worked in these farms from ancient times, so there is no risk.
4-We can reduce air pollution by increasing people's awareness, reducing factories building, and using healthy methods to combat it.

Q1- The air quality in my area is very bad due to the multiplicity of factories ,car smoke and also industry programs.
Q2- yes, I am concerned about that ,as I mentioned earlier,I live in a region where there are many factories, as climate pollution affects human health and soil,where diseases abound and also affects the quality of food and the economic situation, so pollution is a serious issue that must be addressed because it is a global dangerous problem ,but food produced in Palestine is natural because few factories compared to others and improved control.
Q3-planting alot of a tress and making factories in places empty of people so we should conduct awareness campaigns within school , universities and organization to talk about pollution and its damage and how to combat it to broadcast awareness programs on television and radio station.

Q- What’s the air quality like in your city?
- Jericho, as it is known, is an area almost without factories, so the air quality is very good and we do not suffer from air pollution due to the small number of residents and factories alike..

Q- Do you worry about climate change, or how your food is produced?
-Sure, I have concerns about climate change, but being in an area that doesn't suffer from pollution to some extent makes me less affected by it. And the people of my city are aware of the seriousness of this phenomenon, so we strive to try to reduce it, even if we are at least in our city and thus we try not to increase the burden on the .-‏

A- The air quality in Jenin is good due to the small number of factories in it, the lack of dust and the fires, the waste is also treated properly to reduce its negative impact on the air.

B- No, as the cold and heat are fairly regular, but sometimes the pentagonal winds coming from the desert, which carry dust and sand, may blow.
Food production by farms, especially from the plain of Marj Ibn Amer, as well as mountains and valleys planted with multiple types of trees.

C- The best way to reduce air pollution is to get rid of toxic gaseous materials by burning materials such as burning toxic gas released from petroleum refineries.
