INTRODUCTION Pollution is the introduction of a contaminant into a natural environment‚ usually by humans. While most people think of pollution as chemical waste dumped into rivers‚ or factories spewing toxins into the air‚ it can also include light pollution or sound pollution. These are example of pollutions such as air pollution‚ water pollution and land pollution. Firstly‚ the air pollution is the accumulation in the atmosphere of substances that‚ in sufficient concentrations‚ endanger

Global Warming Is Debatable‚ But Global Pollution Is a Fact When we hear the term global warming we tend to think of the enormous hole in the ozone layer‚ but what it really is the earth’s average measured temperature and why it changes. Scientists explain that green house concentrations‚ solar variation‚ and volcanoes negatively affect our earth. This isn’t including the human aspects in which we are damaging our earth’s atmosphere. There are several reasons why researchers state that humans

Humanities – 12 marker – Marine Pollution. Marine Ecosystem - the sea. Pollution – When harmful substances make the air‚ land or water dirty. Pollutant – A harmful substance that causes pollution‚ such as exhaust fumes. There are many different causes of marine pollution. I am going to analyse all the different ways in which marine pollution happens‚ and the effects that this has on the environment‚ and if there are any solutions. People exploit the sea in a number of ways‚ such as for leisure

preservation‚ and in the last century for lowering the freezing point of water(History of Salt). In pure water 0 degrees celsius is the normal freezing point of water. Ice will melt just as fast the water will freeze. You won’t see the melting and freezing processes as long as they are balanced and equal. Adding salt or any foreign substance to the water upsets the fragile equality between freezing and melting. Less of the water molecules reach the surface of the ice in an amount of given time. The

RIVER POLLUTION River is very important because it can provide clean water and can act as a main source of protein to human beings. Most of the drinking water consumed by the people of the world originates from the river. If the river has been polluted‚ then the tarnished river water needs to be filtered through a series of intricate and money-consuming process. The picture above clearly shows that the pollution of water happened because of the ignorant act of dumping rubbish and toxic

You could go days without food and hours without water‚ but you would last only a few minutes without air. On average‚ each of us breathes over 2‚000 gallons of air each day. You must have air to live. However‚ did you know that breathing polluted air can make you sick (EPA) environment protection agency? Although we need our factories to produce our products and transportation to get place to place air pollution has a great deal on our industrialization that leads to many hazardous effects. An

River Pollution River pollution is form of water pollution that refers to the contamination of rivers. River pollution occurs when waste and different other pollutants are discharged into river without being properly treated. River pollution has negative effect on aquatic ecosystems. The negative impact on plants and animals often leads to decline in species‚ and sometimes even to extinction of entire species (Yangtze River dolphin). River pollution also leads to decrease in freshwater resources

THERMAL POLLUTION It is one of the pollution that effects on living things and the environment badly. The definition of thermal pollution is the degradation of water quality by any process that changes ambient water temperature. A common cause of thermal pollution is the use of water as a coolant by power plants and industrial manufacturers. When water used as a coolant is returned to the natural environment at a higher temperature‚ the change in temperature decreases oxygen supply‚ and affects ecosystem composition

Sources of air pollution Air pollution caused by vehicles has been identified as the largest contributor to air pollution in the world. Air pollution caused by vehicles is when the burning of fossil fuels to power our vehicles gives off CO2 emission. This pollution by vehicles also produces toxic substances such as sulfur dioxide and carbon which can be fatal to humans. Air pollution also comes from industry as this source of pollution spews particulate matter and chemicals into the atmosphere
