Don't take it for granted


We should treat the air around us better.... (a serious article for a change)

The average adult at least inhales and exhales something like 7 or 8 litres of air per minute. That totals something like 11,000 litres of air per day. The air that is inhaled is about 20-percent oxygen and the air that is exhaled is about 15-percent oxygen. As a result, a human being uses about 550 litres of pure oxygen per day (5% of the air he/she breathes)

Now if you look at the price of Oxygen in the UK (Click Here for cheapest I could find in the UK) then you  can see that if we had to pay for it then it would cost us around £250.00 a day, that's £91,250 (Exc VAT) a year. If we were paying the 60% duty and VAT (same as petrol) on that then we would be paying £175,200 per year.

Based on my Islamic beliefs, it makes you realise that “Allah Ka Shukar Ada Karna Chaheya” (Be thankful to God).
