INTRODUCTION
● POLLUTION IS INTRODUCTION OF
HARMFUL MATERIALS IN ENVIRONMENT.
● SOURCE OF POLLUTION
POLLUTANTS CAN BE NATURAL, SUCH AS
VOLCANIC ASH OR CREATED BY HUMAN ACTIVITY
SUCH AS TRASH OR SURFACE RUNOFF PRODUCED
BY FACTORIES.
● MAJOR FORMS OF POLLUTION INCLUDE :-
AIR POLLUTION, LIGHT POLLUTION, LITTER,
NOISE POLLUTION, PLASTIC POLLUTION, SOIL
CONTAMINATION, RADIOACTIVE
CONTAMINATION, THERMAL POLLUTION, VISUAL
POLLUTION, AND WATER POLLUTION
● CAUSES OF ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION
ARE INDUSTRIALISATION & URBANISATION,
MINING & EXPLORATION, AGRICULTURAL
ACTIVITIES, BURNING OF FOSSIL FUELS, ETC
Vertical forest
● Vertical Forest is an architectural
device that promotes the
coexistence of architecture and
nature in urban areas, and the
creation of complex urban
ecosystems.
● The brainchild of Italian architect
Stefano Boeri, Bosco Verticale
(Vertical Forest) is the concept of
residential high-rises packed with
greenery, which can help cities
build for density while improving air
quality.
Pollution Sensors in
Street light
● These smart street lights are
attached with sensors that sense the
concentration of pollutants and
measure the amount of pollution.
● The data collected can be used for
other usages like designing pollution
maps, route deciding, etc
● Optical particle counters detect
particulate pollution by measuring the
light scattered by particles.
WHY THERE'S A NEED
■ REDUCING POLLUTANTS IS AN IMPORTANT
FACTOR FOR HUMAN HEALTH AND THE
ENVIRONMENT.
■ POLLUTANTS CAN DAMAGE PLANTS AND
BUILDINGS AND SMOKE OR HAZE CAN REDUCE
VISIBILITY.
■ AIR POLLUTION CAUSES SIGNIFICANT
DAMAGE TO OUR ENVIRONMENT AND
ECOSYSTEMS.
■ POLLUTION IS CAUSING GRAVE AND
IRREPARABLE DAMAGE TO THE NATURAL
WORLD AND HUMAN SOCIETY WITH ABOUT
40% OF DEATHS WORLDWIDE
■ POLLUTION EFFECTS IN FOREST
ECOSYSTEMS AND LINKAGES ARE
MANIFESTED IN COMPLEX PATTERNS.
INNOVATIVE IDEAS💡
Electric Self Driving Pollution Absorbing
Cars
Street Furniture
● The idea behind self-driving cars
is fairly simple: build a car with
camera that can track all the objects ● It is the work of a German company
around it. called Green City Solutions.
● The car should react if it's about ● This living wall rises up four meters tall
to steer into one. above its integrated benches and
comprises 1,600 pots of mosses and
● And once in-car computers know plants.
all driving rules, they should be able ● As a result, this street furniture
to navigate to their destination. captures fine particles and cleans the
air as much as 275 trees together.
Photosynthesis Bike
● The Air-Purifying Bike is a
concept, developed by designers at
the Bangkok-based Lightfog Creative
& Design Company, that uses an air
filter to clean the air around a cyclist.
● The bike is made from an
aluminum frame which generates
oxygen through a “photosynthesis
system” that initiates a reaction
between water and electric power
from a lithium-ion battery. SOLAR FERRY
CURRENT AND FUTURE SCENARIO
● AT PRESENT, POLLUTION IS A MATTER OF
GRAVE CONCERN BECAUSE OUT OF THE 30 MOST
POLLUTED CITIES IN THE WORLD, 21 WERE IN
INDIA IN 2019.
● FOR THE CURRENT SCENARIO WE THE
YOUNGSTERS NEED TO TAKE INITIATIVE
RATHER DEPENDING ON NGO'S OR ANY
PRIVATE ORGANISATION
● FUTURE SCENARIO :-
IF AIR POLLUTION IS NOT CONTROLLED, BY 2030
THE AIR WILL BECOME SO POISONOUS THAT IT
WILL BE NECESSARY TO USE AN OXYGEN KIT TO
BREATHE EASILY. RISING AIR POLLUTION WILL
ALSO LEAD TO PREMATURE AGING.

person.
CONCLUSION
● Taking above all points into consideration, we
come to know that people are still not aware of
pollution and its side effects ; On the other hand the
youngsters and upcoming scientist are busy in
making some innovative inventions to reduce
pollution
● Even in India that much awareness is not seen,
So this picture should change somewhere else.
And I know definitely one day india will be leading
country in reducing pollution
● As upon it is said, "MAN IS THE ONLY ANIMAL
THAT FOULS ITS OWN NEST" So let's not be a part
of it & Be a part of the Solution not the part of
POLLUTION.
