American ozone hurts European wheat

We live in a connected world. God's world. Our actions (or inaction?) affect others. Here's one example.

The journal "Biogeosciences" reports that air pollution from North America is causing Europe to lose 1.2 million tons of wheat a year. Our pollution is affecting other nations ... other businesses ... other people ... other lives.

Biogeosciences is "An Interactive Open Access Journal of the European Geosciences Union."

Good stewardship of God's earth takes others into account.  What are you personally doing to reduce air pollution?
