 Pollution

Pollution is the
introduction of
contaminants into an
environment that
causes instability,
disorder, harm or
discomfort to the
ecosystem.
Forms of pollution
 Air pollution
 Air pollution is the action

of environmental
 contamination with
 man-made waste into the
air.
 These are following gases
that are known as the
"Big Six" air pollutants":
1.Carbon Dioxide
2.Carbon Monoxide
3.Sulfur Oxide
4.Nitrogen Oxide
5.Hydrocarbons (Benzene,
Terpene, etc.)
6.Particulates.

 Effects of Air pollution
 Smog
 Damage to Plants
 Damage to living creatures
 Ozone Depletion
 Global Warming

Water Pollution

 Water pollution is the action of environmental

contamination with man-made waste into
water. The source of this waste could be raw
sewage, chemicals, trash, or fertilizer.
Water pollution has severe human
consequences, since less than 3% of the
Earth contains water that is potable or safe
for drinking.

Effects of Water Pollution
 The food chain is damaged
 Diseases can spread via polluted water.
 Acid rain
 Altered water temperatures (due to human
actions) can kill the marine life.
Noise Pollution

Noise pollution is an
unwanted,
unpleasant and
annoying sound
caused by the
vibration of the
matter. vibration
impinge on the ear
drum of the human
or animal and set up
a nervous
disturbance, which
we call sound.
 Effects of Noise Pollution
 Hearing loss
 Cardiovascular effects
 Stress
 Annoyance
 Depression

 Land Pollution


Land pollution is the
action of
environmental
contamination with
man-made waste on
land.

 Effects of land pollution

 Exterminates wild life

 Acid rain kills trees and other plants.
 Vegetation that provides food and shelter is
destroyed.
 It can seriously disrupt the balance of
nature, and, in extreme cases, can cause
human fatalities.

 Sources of Air pollution
 Motor vehicles
 Industry
 Smog
 Decomposition of waste
 Deforestation
Statistics
 Sources of Water pollution
 Sewage and waste water
 Industries
 Marine Dumping
 Eutrophication
 Sources of Noise pollution
 Trafficnoise
 Low flying military aircrafts
 People living beside railway stations and
airports

 Sources of Land pollution
 Demolition and construction
 Domestic and nuclear wastes
 Industrial wastes
Solution For Air Pollution
 Heavy Plantation
 Cars fitted with catalytic converters
 Barriers on industries
 Using Hybrid cars


Solution For Water Pollution
 Reducing Nutrient and Pesticide Pollution
 Prevent further destruction wetlands, and
reestablish them wherever possible
 Improve sewage treatment
 Stopping Deforestation
 Marine dumping should be banned
 Oil spill cleanups

Solution For Noise Pollution
 Building industries, airports and railways
away from the city
 Building thick walls of industries
 lubricate train rails Reduce train derailment
& rail wear
 Using ear plugs
 Less Sound Means More Peace
Solution For Land Pollution
 Reducing the use of non-biodegradable
items
 Reusing the products in its final form
 Using Recycling methods to utilize the
material in different forms
