​ bstrac— ​Environmental disaster
A
cause serious problem respiratory in
the population of Medellin, one of
the biggest problem are diseases as:
COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease), pneumonia. Highly diseases
contagious, that could untie an
epidemic. Medellin, the city of
“eternal spring” has been
characterized by being an innovative
city, it has an enviable mobility for
the major cities of the world, as well
as being the birthplace of
entrepreneurship and production at
national and international level, in
the industrial sector. Medellin has
been characterized by many get
features, however it is city that
produces more CO2 in Colombia.
I. LITERATURE REVIEW
T​he phenomenon of increasing air
pollution in the city is mediated by
three factors. First, the increase in
urbanism, with 98 percent of the
population in urban areas. Also the
growth of the vehicle fleet, which
according to figures from the Ministry
of Mobility was 1.2 million vehicles as
of 2014. The population density is
added with more than 17,800
inhabitants per square kilometer in
the capital of Antioquia. The study
looked at the pressure that is exerted
in the environment factors such as
population growth, which in the
Aburrá Valley
already exceeds three million
inhabitants .
Thanks to high pollution rates,
Medellín is ranked 23rd in the world's
most polluted cities; And now it is said
that breathing the air of eternal spring
is equivalent to smoking three
cigarettes a day. In Medellín one
person dies every three hours for
causes related to air pollution, "says
Professor Elkin Martínez, a researcher
at the National School of Public
Health of the University of Antioquia,

and there is an alarming factor of
fatality from respiratory diseases
caused by pollution, ​it could be
detected that in Medellín the risk of
death from lung cancer is three times
higher than that presented by Bogotá.
As you know, trees play the role of
CO2 scavengers, but excessive and
illegal logging even in nature reserves
slows down this natural cleaning
process.
In addition, the mobility model based
on the combustion of gasoline and
ACPM is not only contributing to
global warming, also is putting at risk
the lives of all the inhabitants of the
city. In Medellín, it is evident that the
private vehicle is still a preferred
choice for citizens to travel, and there
are few incentives and public policies
that favor non-motorized mobility,
added to the lack of public awareness
about the problem of pollution, ie a
environmental culture to allow more
sustainable habits.
INDUSTRY 4.0
Industry 4.0 seeks that the industry
through clean energy and technology
create producer and services in favor
of self-sustainability. Until now its
focus is the measurement and
correction in water and air damage, in
addition to innovating in recycling
with projects such as fuel from
ordinary waste and natural insulators
that prevent the contamination of
water by toxins and chemicals.
ANALYSIS
The industries and government
measures are also a factor to analyze
the problem. The cars are not the only
potential contributors of Co2 in the
city, the factories contribute 58% of
the pollution between aqueduct
emptying waste and machinery that
expels dangerous gases. ​This leads to
the questions the law, environmental
awareness people’s and running up
solutions.
The circulation of vehicles in poor
condition (mostly buses and cargo
trucks) leads to propose a much more
severe scrap and a better
measurement of emissions, since the
current measurement leaves a lot of
factors favoring industrial companies
and punishing the citizens, increasing
the indifference and environmental
awareness of the problem
II. CONCLUSION

- The productive activity of the

region can not be treated with
the same parameters that are
used for mobility, people can
have different options for their
habitual movements, this is not
the case of the production
plants, which do not have
alternative forms of production
and, in some cases, suspending
the emission of contaminants
necessarily means temporarily
stopping production. This is
why companies are invited or
look for methods that help
improve air quality.

- It is imperative that policies be

adopted that promote clean
mobility, shared private
transportation, the use of
bicycles, teleworking and more
measures that contribute to an
air improvement in an effective
and fast manner.
