-There is a correlation between X2 (per capita CO2), variable D where per capita 85% of the CO2 gas of the total gases rising and polluting environment- The value of )K²( = 0.002 is less than.05 if it is a statistically significant function, than there is a relationship between production, pollution and chronic diseases with 95% confidenceThe most important recommendations: 1- the lack of good input production, and the continuous emphasis on the quality of raw materials and ingredients.2-.

Recycle the waste, and benefit from the economic return achieved to reduce the cost of production, and the safe disposal of waste.3- Use of modern technologies in production and processing to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and other polluting emissions to the environment.4- Contributing to solving the problem of unemployment and balance of trade through the expansion of production, processing and export by providing qualified personnel and trained manpower.5- Expanding the establishment of exhibitions and international markets throughout the year to introduce Egyptian products.
