It means adding impurity which threatens the life of flora and fauna to the environment. These impurities are mainly created by man-made activities. The impurity can be air‚ water‚ land any sort of thermal radiation‚ etc. As we moving towards globalization there is rapid increase in industrialization and technological growth which

Keywords: Anthropogenic‚ biogenic‚ geogenic emissions biogenic‚; primary and secondary pollutants; criteria‚ hazardous‚ radioactive‚ indoor pollutants; sulfur smog‚ photochemical smog; UN-ECE‚ US-EPA‚ Clean Air Act. Air pollution spreads easily as it travels into the atmosphere. People get exposed to air pollution not just outdoors

Water Polution definiton: Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies (e.g. lakes‚ rivers‚ oceans‚ aquifers and groundwater). Water pollution occurs whenpollutants are directly or indirectly discharged into water bodies without adequate treatment to remove harmful compounds. Water pollution affects plants and organisms living in these bodies of water. In almost all cases the effect is damaging not only to individual species and populations‚ but also to

Air pollution is caused by the presence of chemicals‚ particulate matter‚ or biological materials in the air which harms humans and other living organisms. It can also damage the natural environment. Air pollution causes depletion of ozone in the stratosphere which endangers human health as well as the Earth’s ecosystems. Air pollutants can be in the form of solid particles‚ liquid droplets‚ or gases. They could be natural or man-made. Pollutants can be classified as either primary or secondary

I just came back from a business trip this weekend. It was the first time I worked as a “coordinator” for my company. I learned a lot and got “business culture shock” as well. I am not sure if there is the term in English. I just felt I was in another world that I had to speak another language and used another way of thinking especially in business meetings. For example‚ my boss blamed me that I shouldn’t have said “sorry” if he hadn’t said that. In my opinion‚ in Japan‚ it’s very common to

The North Pacific Gyre for example has collected the so-called "Great Pacific Garbage Patch" that is now estimated at 100 times the size of Texas. Many of these long-lasting pieces wind up in the stomachs of marine birds and animals. This results in obstruction of digestive pathways which leads to reduced appetite or even starvation

Noise Pollution Noise pollution is not a necessary price to pay for living in an industrial society. Much can be done to reduce the severity of the problem. For example‚ vehicles and other machines can be built to produce less noise. Four-cycle engines can replace much noisier two-cycle engines in such products as lawnmowers‚ motorboats‚ and jet skis. Labels that indicate the noise levels of appliances and tools can help consumers avoid noisy products and choose quieter alternatives. Even

Ocean pollution Hannah Waddell Ocean pollution is a growing problem and affects people as well. It is a growing problem that needs to be stopped and controlled immediately. Taking care of our water will be beneficial for our long-term survival. If we put off this problem any longer‚ the prices will only escalade even higher. We need water to survive and the ocean is one of the greatest water suppliers. The actions we take or do not take will affect the future in either a negative or a positive

POLLUTION!!- IS THERE A SOLUTION? Human Beings belong to a species that poisons its own habitat. If we think of our planet as a spaceship then we are the new and all other species are passengers. In general we behave irresponsibly .Earth’s atmosphere forms a protective cocoon around our spaceship‚ storing and recycling essential elements such as carbon and oxygen. Humans fill the air with pollution that turns the rain acidic and threatens to alter the climate pollution from and fossil and nuclear
