 Pollution

undesirable state of the natural

environment being contaminated
with harmful substances as a
consequence of human activities
 Major kinds of pollution
• Air pollution

• water pollution

• land pollution

• noise pollution
 Our point of view
• We all contribute to pollution in some way or
another. Whether it be with a large amount or
small amount we can still cause major damage
to our health and the environment. Although we
all contribute to help stop the increase of
pollution. Very little people realize that pollution
is very harmful because they don't think of the
environment, themselves and other people and
what it can do. Pollution is an important factor
to our lives. It involves our society and all other
animals. Pollution is gradually destroying our
planet and is gradually killing ourselves too.
Like air pollution, smog and acid rain is a killer
to all of us. It destroys marine life, our own
health and destroys historical monuments and
• We have a uniquely beautiful world, thus surely it
would make sense to preserve it for future generations
to enjoy as we do. Landfill sites that are used for
dumping ever increasing amounts of domestic rubbish
cannot last forever...and nobody wants such a site on
their backdoor. Nobody likes incinerators either, even
though they offer a possible solution to the question
'what do we do with all this household rubbish?'
Consider how much rubbish your household produces
in one week. Then imagine how much rubbish your
street produces...then your city...then your
region...then your country. Hopefully then you can
begin to imagine the extent of this problem. It's nice
that this rubbish is collected and taken away but it
doesn't disappear. Our wasteful society pollutes the
landscape and environment. Yet pollution is not just
about landfill rubbish.
• Pollution from the combustion of fossil fuels
causes global warming and acid rain. Pollution
causes unexpected and sometimes serious and
devastating changes in our land, river and sea
environments. Pollution can kill animals and
plants and it probably kills us too. We know that
pollution can causes health problems such as
respiratory illnesses. Polluting our world should
not even be an option, especially where there
are alternatives as there are these days. And
where we consider that we have no other
choice other than to pollute, we should be
investigating as best we can alternatives to the
technology that pollutes. We should be. Please
check out the actions listed below which can
 Air pollution
• Smoking should banned on public places

• Industrial smoke should be filtered

• Plant as many trees as possible

• Connect your outdoor lights to a timer or use

solar lighting

• Modify transportation

• No burn barrels
 Water pollution
• All industrial water should be filtered

• Wastage should not throw on rivers

• Use environmental products

• Chemicals should not dissolve in rivers

• Do not throw paints, oil and organic material

on water
 Land pollution
• Recycle every thing which is possible

• Reduce waste

• There should be dust-bins on public

places

• Compost organic substances.

• Don't waste resources.

 Noise pollution
• There should be alternative of
rickshaws

• Horn should be banned

• Listen to soothing music

• Air ports should away from

 water
• * Conserve water by turning off the tap when running
water is not necessary. This helps prevent water
shortages and reduces the amount f contaminated
water that needs treatment.
• * Be careful about what you throw down your sink
or toilet. Don't throw paints, oils or other forms of litter
down the drain.
• * Use environmentally household products, such as
washing powder, household cleaning agents and
toiletries.
• * Take great care not to overuse pesticides and
fertilisers. This will prevent runoffs of the material into
nearby water sources.
• * By having more plants in your garden you are
preventing fertiliser, pesticides and contaminated
water from running off into nearby water sources.
• * Toxic products like paints, automobile oil, polishes, and cleaning products
should be stored and disposed off properly. As a matter of fact, it is better to
use non-toxic, products for the house as far as possible. Also, never dispose off
such products by throwing them into your toilet or sink.
• * Dispose off your trash in a proper manner and try and incorporate the
recycling habit as far as possible. Non-degradable products like tampons,
sanitary napkins, and diapers should not be flushed down the toilet, for these
can end up damaging the process of sewage treatment, and usually end up as
litter on beaches.
• * Refrain from throwing litter into streams, lakes, rivers, or seas. If you do
spot litter on beaches or in water systems, after ascertaining that it is safe,
collect them and dispose off them in any nearby waste disposal system.
• * Try using environmentally friendly household products like toiletries, soap-
based household cleaning material, and washing powder as far as possible.
• * Try using natural fertilizers and pesticides as far as possible, or if not, do not
overuse them or over-water gardens and lawns. This will help in reducing the
pollutants that get into water systems due to runoffs.
• * Automobile oil should be re-used as far as possible. Also, it is important to
keep your automobile well maintained in order to prevent leakages of toxic
fluids like antifreeze and oil.
• * Also, actively conserve water by turning the tap off when you do not need
running water, such as while brushing teeth. Apart from preventing water
 air
• * Conserve energy - turn off appliances and lights when you leave the room.
• * Recycle paper, plastic, glass bottles, cardboard, and aluminum cans. (This
conserves energy and reduces production emissions.)
• * Keep woodstoves and fireplaces well maintained. You should also consider
replacing old wood stoves with EPA-certified models. Visit
www.epa.gov/woodstoves.
• * Plant deciduous trees in locations around your home to provide shade in the
summer, but to allow light in the winter.
• * Buy green electricity-produced by low-or even zero-pollution facilities.
• * Connect your outdoor lights to a timer or use solar lighting.
• * Wash clothes with warm or cold water instead of hot.
• * Lower the thermostat on your water heater to 120°F.
• * Use low-VOC or water-based paints, stains, finishes, and paint strippers.
• * Test your home for radon-a dangerous, radioactive gas that is odorless and
tasteless. If the test shows elevated levels of radon, the problem can be fixed
cost effectively. Visit www.epa.gov/radon.
• * Choose not to smoke in your home, especially if you have children. If you or
your visitors must smoke, then smoke outside. Visit www.epa.gov/smokefree.

• 1. Modify Your Transportation --- Your car is a significant source of air pollution, so switching
to a more gas-efficient vehicle will be a big help. See How You Can Improve Transportation
for several more tips which will improve air quality.

• 2. Conserve Energy --- Your home energy consumption translates into air pollution, therefore
any energy conservation or efficiency improvements you make will help. See 21 Ways You
Can Save Energy for tips.

• 3. Reduce Waste --- Manufacturing of unnecessary or disposable goods often produces air
pollution, so reduced purchasing of disposables will help. In general, follow the solid waste
mantra - "Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Recycle" - and this will reduce air pollution as well from
transporting, treating, or disposing of unnecessary wastes. See Waste Reduction Tips.

• 4. Eliminate Toxic Chemical Use at Home --- A surprising number of household or home shop
chemicals are toxic and volatile. Many release vapors into the air, inside the home and out.
This can be serious health threat to your family, and contributes to community-wide levels of
air pollutants. See Non-Toxic Household Products.

• 5. No Burn Barrels --- Northeast Wisconsin communities need to pass and enforce ordinances
prohibiting individuals or businesses from burning trash in their back yards. This type of
uncontrolled burning is extremely polluting, especially when many people are doing it. When
