Environmental pollution is truly one of the utmost issues the globe encounters these days. It is such an issue that affects us financially too. The contamination of the environment can cause diseases. Most people do not know about this problem. This reveals that environmental pollution has become an extremely worse issue that must be taken care of as quickly as possible, not merely for the good of the environment butalso for humanexistence.Environmental pollution refers to the introduction of harmful pollutants into the environment. It has a hazardous effect on the natural world and on the activities of living beings.The major types of environmental pollution are air pollution, water pollution, noise pollution, thermal pollution, soil pollution and light pollution.
Air pollution is one such form that refers to the contamination of the air, irrespective of indoors or outside. A physical, biological or chemical alteration to the air in the atmosphere can be termed as pollution. It occurs when any harmful gases, dust, smoke enters into the atmosphere and makes it difficult for plants, animals and humans to survive as the air becomes dirty.
Causes of Air pollution are Burning of Fossil Fuels, Agricultural activities, Exhaust from factories and industries, Mining operations
and Indoor air pollution. So these are effected to the air and increase the air pollution. one of the most problem is the Respiratory and heart problems. They are known to create several respiratory and heart conditions along with Cancer, among other threats to the body. Global warming: Another direct effect is the immediate alterations that the world is witnessing due to global warming. With increased temperatures worldwide, increase in sea levels and melting of ice from colder regions and icebergs, displacement and loss of habitat have already signaled an impending disaster if actions for preservation and normalization aren’t undertaken soon. other one is the Acid Rain and Effect on Wildlife. So these are the main effected by air pollution.
Solutions for Air Pollution are Use public mode of transportation, Conserve energy, Understand the concept of Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, Emphasis on clean energy resources and Use energy efficient devices: CFL lights consume less elecricity as against their counterparts. They live longer, consume less electricity, lower electricity bills and also help you to reduce pollution by consuming less energy.
Water pollution is the other main pollution in the world. the causes of water pollution are Waste water. A few statistics illustrate the scale of the problem that waste water (chemicals washed down drains and discharged from factories) can cause. Around half of all ocean pollution is caused by sewage and waste water. Chemical waste Detergents are relatively mild substances. At the opposite end of the spectrum are highly toxic chemicals such as polychlorinated biphenyls. Radioactive waste. People view radioactive waste with great alarm—and for good reason. At high enough concentrations it can kill; in lower concentrations it can cause cancers and other illnesses. Alien species. Most people's idea of water pollution involves things like sewage, toxic metals, or oil slicks, but pollution can be biological as well as chemical. In some parts of the world, alien species are a major problem.
water is effected in many ways. First one is it is effected to human health, we all drink water that comes from a source. this may be a lake or local river. In countries that have poor screening and purification practices, people often get water-borne disease outbreaks such as cholera and tuberculosis. death of animal ,Animals, including water animals die when water is poisoned for various reasons. Other animals are stressed and their populations are endangered.economic cost From the above it is evident that there is some real financial implications that will result from the water poluution.
So we Avoid using a garbage disposal. Keep solid wastes solid. Make a compost pile from vegetable scraps. Install a water efficient toilet. In the meantime, put a brick or 1/2 gal container in the standard toilet tank to reduce water use per flush. Run the dishwasher or clothes washer only when you have a full load. This conserves electricity and water. Use the minimum amount of detergent and/or bleach when you are washing clothes or dishes. Use only phosphate free soaps and detergents. Minimize the use of pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers. do not dispose of these chemicals, motor oil, or other automotive fluids into the sanitary sewer or storm sewer systems. Both of them end at the river. If your home has a sump pump or cellar drain, make certain it does not drain into the sanitary sewer system. If you are unsure, please call Sims bury Water Pollution Control at (860) 658-1380 and we can assist in determining the discharge point. it will be sure help to reduce water pollution.
Finally, we have to save our environment at any cost from being polluted as well as we need to build up consciousness and comprehension among the common people so that they become careful about environmental pollution. We can save our environment by using organic and natural fertilizers, environment-friendly chemicals, bio-fertilizers, bio-pesticides and so forth. It is time to do our best to preserve as well as build up a pollution free environment. We should plant trees, make use of eco-friendly merchandise, bio-degradable pickings, and Eco market items, promote conscious about environmental pollution as well.
