POLLUTION
Our environment faces several problems, and many of these seem to be worsening with
time, bringing us into a time of a true environmental crisis. It is therefore becoming
increasingly important to raise awareness of the existence of these issues, as well as
what can be done to reduce their negative impact. One of the issues in our environment
is Pollution
Pollution of the air, water and soil caused by toxins such as plastics, heavy metals and
nitrates, caused by factors such as toxins and gases released by factories, combustion
of fossil fuels, acid rain, oil spill and industrial waste.
Air Pollution
Air pollution refers to the release of pollutants into the air—pollutants which are
detrimental to human health and the planet as a whole. According to the World Health
Organization (WHO), each year air pollution is responsible for nearly seven million
deaths around the globe. Nine out of ten human beings currently breathe air that
exceeds the WHO’s guideline limits for pollutants, with those living in low- and middle-
income countries suffering the most.
What Causes Air Pollution?
“Most air pollution comes from energy use and production,” says John Walke, director of
the Clean Air Project, part of the Climate and Clean Energy program at NRDC. “Burning
fossil fuels releases gases and chemicals into the air.” And in an especially destructive
feedback loop, air pollution not only contributes to climate change but is also
exacerbated by it. “Air pollution in the form of carbon dioxide and methane raises the
earth’s temperature,” Walke says. “Another type of air pollution, smog, is then worsened
by that increased heat, forming when the weather is warmer and there’s more ultraviolet
radiation.” Climate change also increases the production of allergenic air pollutants,
including mold (thanks to damp conditions caused by extreme weather and increased
flooding) and pollen (due to a longer pollen season).
Effects of Air Pollution
The effects of air pollution on the human body vary depending on the type of pollutant
and the length and level of exposure—as well as other factors, including a person’s
individual health risks and the cumulative impacts of multiple pollutants or stressors.
Smog and soot
These are the two most prevalent types of air pollution. Smog (sometimes referred to as
ground-level ozone) occurs when emissions from combusting fossil fuels react with
sunlight. Soot (also known as particulate matter) is made up of tiny particles of
chemicals, soil, smoke, dust, or allergens—in the form of either gas or solids—that are
carried in the air. The sources of smog and soot are similar. “Both come from cars and
trucks, factories, power plants, incinerators, engines, generally anything that combusts
fossil fuels such as coal, gas, or natural gas,”
Smog can irritate the eyes and throat and also damage the lungs, especially those of
children, senior citizens, and people who work or exercise outdoors. It’s even worse for
people who have asthma or allergies: these extra pollutants can intensify their
symptoms and trigger asthma attacks. The tiniest airborne particles in soot, whether
gaseous or solid, are especially dangerous because they can penetrate the lungs and
bloodstream and worsen bronchitis, lead to heart attacks, and even hasten death.
What Is Water Pollution?
Water pollution occurs when harmful substances—often chemicals or microorganisms—

contaminate a stream, river, lake, ocean, aquifer, or other body of water, degrading
water quality and rendering it toxic to humans or the environment.
What Are the Causes of Water Pollution?
Water is uniquely vulnerable to pollution. Known as a “universal solvent,” water is able

to dissolve more substances than any other liquid on earth. It’s the reason we have
Kool-Aid and brilliant blue waterfalls. It’s also why water is so easily polluted. Toxic
substances from farms, towns, and factories readily dissolve into and mix with it,
causing water pollution.
Categories of Water Pollution
Groundwater
When rain falls and seeps deep into the earth, filling the cracks, crevices, and porous
spaces of an aquifer (basically an underground storehouse of water), it becomes
groundwater—one of our least visible but most important natural resources. Nearly 40

percent of Americans rely on groundwater, pumped to the earth’s surface, for drinking
water. For some folks in rural areas, it’s their only freshwater source. Groundwater gets
polluted when contaminants—from pesticides and fertilizers to waste leached from
landfills and septic systems—make their way into an aquifer, rendering it unsafe for
human use. Ridding groundwater of contaminants can be difficult to impossible, as well
as costly. Once polluted, an aquifer may be unusable for decades, or even thousands of
years. Groundwater can also spread contamination far from the original polluting source
as it seeps into streams, lakes, and oceans.
Surface water
Covering about 70 percent of the earth, surface water is what fills our oceans, lakes,
rivers, and all those other blue bits on the world map. Surface water from freshwater
sources (that is, from sources other than the ocean) accounts for more than 60
percent of the water delivered to American homes. But a significant pool of that water is
in peril. According to the most recent surveys on national water quality from the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, nearly half of our rivers and streams and more than
one-third of our lakes are polluted and unfit for swimming, fishing, and drinking. Nutrient
pollution, which includes nitrates and phosphates, is the leading type of contamination
in these freshwater sources. While plants and animals need these nutrients to grow,
they have become a major pollutant due to farm waste and fertilizer runoff. Municipal
and industrial waste discharges contribute their fair share of toxins as well. There’s also
all the random junk that industry and individuals dump directly into waterways.
Ocean water
Eighty percent of ocean pollution (also called marine pollution) originates on land—
whether along the coast or far inland. Contaminants such as chemicals, nutrients, and
heavy metals are carried from farms, factories, and cities by streams and rivers into our
bays and estuaries; from there they travel out to sea. Meanwhile, marine debris—
particularly plastic—is blown in by the wind or washed in via storm drains and sewers.
Our seas are also sometimes spoiled by oil spills and leaks—big and small—and are
consistently soaking up carbon pollution from the air. The ocean absorbs as much as a
quarter of man-made carbon emissions.
Point source
When contamination originates from a single source, it’s called point source pollution.
Examples include wastewater (also called effluent) discharged legally or illegally by a
manufacturer, oil refinery, or wastewater treatment facility, as well as contamination
from leaking septic systems, chemical and oil spills, and illegal dumping. The
EPA regulates point source pollution by establishing limits on what can be discharged
by a facility directly into a body of water. While point source pollution originates from a
specific place, it can affect miles of waterways and ocean.
Nonpoint source
Nonpoint source pollution is contamination derived from diffuse sources. These may
include agricultural or stormwater runoff or debris blown into waterways from
land. Nonpoint source pollution is the leading cause of water pollution in U.S. waters,
but it’s difficult to regulate, since there’s no single, identifiable culprit.
Transboundary
It goes without saying that water pollution can’t be contained by a line on a map.
Transboundary pollution is the result of contaminated water from one country spilling
into the waters of another. Contamination can result from a disaster—like an oil spill—or
the slow, downriver creep of industrial, agricultural, or municipal discharge.
What is Soil Pollution?
With the rise of concrete buildings and roads, one part of the Earth that we rarely see is
the soil. It has many different names, such as dirt, mud, and ground. However, it is
definitely very important to us. The plants that feed us grow in soil, and keeping it
healthy is essential to maintaining a beautiful planet.
However, like all other forms of nature, soil also suffers from pollution. The pollution of
soil is a common thing these days, and it happens due to the presence of man-made
elements.
According to Environmental Pollution Centers, soil pollution is,
“The presence of toxic chemicals (pollutants or contaminants) in soil, in high enough

concentrations to pose a risk to human health and/or the ecosystem. In the case
of contaminants which occur naturally in soil, even when their levels are not high
enough to pose a risk, soil pollution is still said to occur if the levels of the contaminants
in soil exceed the levels that should naturally be present.”
The main reason why the soil becomes contaminated is due to the presence of man-
made waste. The waste produced from nature itself, such as dead plants, carcasses of
animals and rotten fruits and vegetables only adds to the fertility of the soil. However,
our waste products are full of chemicals that are not originally found in nature and lead
to soil pollution.
Main Causes of Soil Pollution
Soil pollution is a complex phenomenon, and it can be triggered by a variety of things

and activities, from the littering of cigarette butts to excess use of chemical fertilizers.
Every cause is linked with another. Pinpointing at one particular cause is quite difficult.
However, the leading causes are listed below.
1. Industrial Activity
Industrial activity has been the biggest contributor to the problem in the last century,
especially since the amount of mining and manufacturing has increased. Most industries
are dependent on extracting minerals from the Earth.
Whether it is iron ore or coal, the by-products are contaminated, and they are not
disposed of in a manner that cannot be considered safe. As a result, the industrial
waste lingers in the soil surface for a long time and makes it unsuitable for use.
2. Agricultural Activities
The utilization of chemicals has gone up tremendously since technology provided us

with modern pesticides and fertilizers. They are full of chemicals that are not produced
in nature and cannot be broken down by it. As a result, they seep into the ground after
they mix with water and slowly reduce the fertility of the soil.
Other chemicals damage the composition of the soil and make it easier to erode by
water and air. Plants absorb many of these pesticides, and when they decompose, they
cause soil pollution since they become a part of the land.
3. Waste Disposal
Finally, a growing cause for concern is how we dispose of our waste. While industrial
waste is sure to cause contamination, there is another way in which we are adding to
the pollution. Every human produces a certain amount of personal waste products by
way of urine and feces.
While much of it moves into the sewer system, there is also a large amount that is
dumped directly into landfills in the form of diapers. Even the sewer system ends at
the landfill, where the biological waste pollutes the soil and water. This is because our
bodies are full of toxins and chemicals which are now seeping into the land and causing
pollution of soil.
4. Accidental Oil Spills
Oil leaks can happen during the storage and transport of chemicals. This can be seen at
most of the fuel stations. The chemicals present in the fuel deteriorates the quality of
soil and make them unsuitable for cultivation. These chemicals can enter into the
groundwater through the soil and make the water undrinkable.
5. Acid Rain
Acid rain is caused when pollutants present in the air mix up with the rain and fall back
on the ground. The polluted water could dissolve away some of the essential nutrients
found in soil and change the structure of the soil.
