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.
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.
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 noce =
"I do harm", referring originally to nuisance
noise.
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.
