Pollution:

Man’s First Environmental


Problem
 AIR POLLUTION
WATER POLLUTION
NOISE POLLUTION
WASTE POLLUTION
AIR POLLUTION

Air pollution is the modification of the natural


characteristics of the
atmosphere by a chemical, particulate matter, or
biological agent. The
atmosphere is a complex, dynamic natural gaseous
system that is
essential to support life on planet Earth. Stratospheric
ozone depletion
due to air pollution has long been recognized as a
threat to human health
as well as to the Earth's ecosystems.
Can you imagine living in a

Polluted and Smokey


place?
WATER POLLUTION

Water pollution is a large set of adverse


effects upon
water bodies such as lakes, rivers, oceans, and
groundwater caused by human activities.
The sources of WATER
POLLUTION
Throwing trashes in water
Throwing low batteries in
water,lakes,rivers and etc.
The chemicals from factories that might
flow to rivers
NOISE POLLUTION
• Noise pollution or environmental noise is
displeasing human or machine created sound
that disrupts the activity or happiness of human
or animal life. A common form of noise pollution
is from transportation, principally motor vehicles.
The word "noise" comes from the Latin word
nausea meaning "seasickness", or from a
derivative (perhaps Latin noxia) of Latin noceō =
"I do harm", referring originally to nuisance
noise.
“cause and effect of
NOISE POLLUTION”
• No one on earth can escape the sounds of noise- an unwanted,
disturbing sound that causes a nuisance in the eye of the
beholder.
• Noise is a disturbance to the human environment that is
escalating at such a high rate that it will become a major threat
to the quality of human lives.
• There are numerous effects on the human environment due to
the increase in noise pollution. In the following paper, the cause
and effects of noise pollution will be presented in some detail.
• Major sources of noise can be airplanes at takeoff and landing,
and a truck just off the assembly line, yet we seem accept and
enjoy countless other sounds, from hard rock music to loud
Harley Davidson motor cycles.
• The following areas will be investigated in some detail;
adolescent education, neural-effects, sleep, hearing damage,
occupational environment, transportation, and physiological
effects.
WASTE POLLUTION
• Waste, rubbish, trash, garbage, or junk is unwanted or
undesired material. "Waste" is the general term; though
the other terms are used loosely as synonyms, they
have more specific meanings: rubbish or trash are mixed
household waste and including paper and packaging;
food waste or garbage (North America) is kitchen and
table waste; and junk or scrap is metallic or industrial
material. There are other categories of waste as well:
sewage, ash, manure, and plant materials from garden
operations, including grass cuttings, fallen leaves, and
pruned branches.
“cause and effect of
WASTE POLLUTION”
• cause, or significantly contribute to an
increase in mortality (death) or an increase
in serious irreversible, or incapacitating
reversible illness; or
• pose a substantial present or potential
hazard to human health or the
environment when improperly treated,
stored, transported, or disposed of, or
otherwise managed.
Still DEATH IS THE EFFECT OF ALL POLLUTION
