the causes of environment pollution:

Environmental pollution is one of the biggest challenges facing the world today. It started after the
industrial revolution, increased day by day, and caused irreparable damage to Mother Earth. And
the following are the reasons for environmental pollution.

First, Pollution from cars, trucks and other vehicles is and has been our major environmental
pollution issue for almost a century now. The problem is we did not realize this until the problem
had manifested to monumental proportions.

Second, Fossil fuel emissions from power plants that burn coal as fuel contributed heavily, along
with vehicles burning fossil fuels, to the production of smog. Smog is the result of fossil fuel
combustion combined with sunlight and heat. The result is a toxic gas that now surrounds our once
pristine planet. This is known as “ozone smog” and means we have more problems down here than
we do in the sky.

Third, Carbon dioxide is another product from all of the vehicles on the planet as well as
unreformed power plants and other industrial facilities. A continually growing population of humans
and clear-cutting of forests has exacerbated this problem so natural defenses are no longer present
and carbon dioxide levels are on the rise.

Finally, More radiation is a problem. The sun shining brightly on a naked planet is not the only
source of radiation we are exposed to. Electromagnetic radiation is another insidious culprit. Once
upon a time, the major concern around this type of radiation was due to high tension wires which
carry huge amounts of electricity to cities. Now, we even carry sources of this radiation with us as
cell phones, laptops, tablets, and other wireless devices.

In short, they are the main reasons causing environmental pollution today. Environmental pollution
