The document discusses different types of pollution including air, water, soil, and noise pollution. It defines each type of pollution and provides examples of causes. The effects of pollution on human health and the environment are also outlined. Some key effects mentioned are respiratory illnesses from air pollution, cancer and reproductive issues from water pollution, and hearing loss from noise pollution. The document stresses that pollution control is needed to manage emissions and effluents, but prevention is more desirable than control alone. It concludes with a message urging people not to pollute.

Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural
environment that causes adverse change. “SLOGAN ABOUT POLLUTION” Air pollution Water pollution Soil pollution Noise pollution Activity # 1
1.What are things that caused pollution
in Earth? 2.Give ways on how to fight Pollution. 3.Define what is air pollution. 4.What are the effects of pollution in human? 5.What are the effects of pollution in Animals? It can either be foreign substances/energies or naturally occurring contaminants which pollutes the environment. It can be from schools,restaurants,houses,transportation,occupational etc… NB: Founded in 1999, is an international non-profit organization dedicated to eliminate life threatening pollution in the developing world. It has completed over 30 projects in 15 countries and currently engaged in over 30 projects over 15 countries. This organization is headed by Richard Fuller. Air pollution: The release of chemicals and particulars into the atmosphere that causes discomfort,disease or death to humans, damage other living organisms such as food crops or damage the natural environment or built environment. The air pollutants can be in the form of solid particles,liquid droplets or gases. In addition they may be natural or manmade. Water pollution: Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies. It occurs when pollutants are directly or indirectly discharging pollutants in to the water, thus it effect plants and animals living in water. An estimated 1000, Indian children die of diarrheal sickness every day and also nearly 500 million people lack access to safe drinking water. Soil pollution: soil pollution is caused by the presence of xenobiotic (human made) chemicals or other alteration in the natural soil environment. It is caused by: Industrial activity Agriculture chemicals Improper disposal of waste This pollution causes congenital disorders. It effects the ground water, food chain, crop yield and soil fertility. Noise pollution: Is a excessive, displacing human, animal, or machine created environmental noise that disrupts the activity or balance of human or animal life. The noise can be from construction fields , transportation system, factories etc….. It can effect both health and behavior, physiological and psychological health, cause annoyance and aggression, hypertension, tinnitus , hearing loss etc… Air pollution: Air pollution is a significant risk factor for multiple health conditions including respiratory infections, heart disease, and lung cancer, according to the WHO. The health effects caused by air pollution may include difficulty in breathing, wheezing, coughing and aggravation of existing respiratory and cardiac conditions. Water pollution: It causes vomiting or diarrhea, a sick stomach, skin rashes, cancer (leukemia),reproductive problems (infertility),developmental problems (disabilities) etc… Soil pollution: Chronic exposure to chromium, lead and other metals, petroleum, solvents, and many pesticide and herbicide formulations can be carcinogenic, can cause congenital disorders. Mercury and cyclodiens causes kidney damage,PCB(polychlorinated biphenyl) are linked to liver toxicity and other such as head ache,nausea,fatigue,eye irritation etc…. Noise pollution: It can cause cardio vascular effects, hearing loss, sleep disturbance, annoyance,agression also it can have a detrimental(harm) effect on animals. Pollution control is a term used in environmental management. It means the control of emissions and effluents into air, water or soil. With out pollution control, the waste products from consumption, heating, agriculture, mining, manufacturing, transportation and other human activities, whether they accumulate or disperse, will degrade the environment. In the hierarchy of controls, pollution prevention and waste minimization are more desirable than pollution control. PLEASE DON’T POLLUTE!!!!!!!
