Pollution happens absolutely everywhere, every single second of the day, everywhere on earth. You can find pollution in cars, home electronics, personal hygiene products, natural disasters, and even your own home. Pollution is when fossil fuel is burnt and let into the atmosphere. The three types of pollution is land pollution , air pollution and water pollution. Pollution is related to the amount of people in the world because if we have too much people on earth , then their is going to be too much pollution. What is land pollution? Land pollution is the wearing down of earth’s land caused by human activities. Land pollution can affect people , especially children because they can step on a broken bottle or a rusty piece of discarded metal.

What can be done to stop pollution from ruining our environment? To help stop pollution , we can stop littering , throw the garbage into trash-cans instead of onto the sidewalk or the side of the road. We can also carry around small bags and if we see a piece of litter on the ground while we’re walking , we can pick it up and toss it out in a trashcan. And if there isn’t enough garbage cans on the street , then we can send a letter to the local government , asking them to put more trash-cans in order to help stop pollution. I would write a letter to the local government if I see a big issue about littering.
