 Pollution, contamination of Earth’s environment with
materials that interfere with human health, the quality
of life, or the natural functioning of ecosystems (living
organisms and their physical surroundings). Although
some environmental pollution is a result of natural
causes such as volcanic eruptions, most is caused by
human activities
AIR POLLUTION

NOISE POLLUTION

SOIL POLLUTION

WATER POLLUTION
 AIR POLLUTION
 We Breathe in air around us .
 So it must be clean and fresh .
 But man is polluting the air by his activities.
 By burning wood and cool smoke is produced.
 The factories also release smoke and harmful gases.
 The vehicles emit poisonous gases.
 All these gases and smoke pollute the air.
 When this pollution air is in haled it affects our throat and lungs it may lead to lung
cancer.
 The harmful gases present in the air combine with droplets of rain and produce acid rain .
 The acid rain causes damage to buildings made of marble e. g. Taj Mahal at Agra, has
turned yellowish due to the acid rain .
 Who has forgotten the Bhopal gas tragedy?
 When 1984 the poisonous gas leaked from union carbide factory in Bhopal.
 It polluted the surrounding air.
 Thousands of people died, many get blind and more them one lac. people suffered from
serious disorders.
 So we must take some measures to check the air pollution.
 can With the development of man and growth in population, the harmony between
man and nature declined.
 His surroundings, become very noisy.
 Noise means unwanted sound.
 The sound of factories, trains, autoclaves and vehicles had harmful effects on our
ears.
 The frequently blowing of horns and listening to loud music pollutes our
atmosphere.
 Noise pollution deafen us.
 It can cause hypertension .
 It not only disturbs the human beings but birds and animal also.
 Thus man is causing great damage to nature and environment.
 To save our environment from noise pollution, the following measures should
be taken.

• As man progressed more and more land came under cultivation.
• The forests were destroyed for this par pose.
• The cutting of trees led to soil-erosion.
• The excessive use of insecticides, pesticides and chemical fertilizers
affected the living beings.
• Dumping of non-biodegradable garbage such as plastic articles and
polythene bags made the soil infertile.
• To control the soil pollution the following measures should be taken!
• We know that ¾ part (75%) of his earth covered with
water.
• Most of it is salty or frozen.
• Only 1% of the water is being used by us.
• We are polluting this water by dumping garbage into rivers.
• The insecticides, pesticides and chemical fertilizers are
being washed.
• Away by water and contaminate the rivers, takes and
streams.
• The contaminated water becomes unfit for drinking and
may cause diseased like jaundice, darned and cholera.
• Sometimes the oil tankers in the oceans.
• This affects the aquatic life on the marine life.
• To control the water pollution we must take the following
measures.
 Automobiles, factories, heating furnaces, power plants, trash incinerators—each
adds to the problem, so control is difficult.
 Compounding that difficulty has been the diversity of agencies responsible for
control.
 Until the President this year established a new Environmental Protection Agency,
air-pollution control came chiefly under the Department of Health, Education, and
Welfare, water pollution under the Department of the Interior, and land pollution
under the Departments of Agriculture, HEW, and Interior .
