📚 Oxford Dictionary:
-It is the the action or state of making or

Environmental
Contamination
Pollution that occurs in the environment, such as
chemicals that are unintentionally or intentionally
released, is known as environmental contamination.
This pollution is frequently, but not always, the
consequence of human activity. Due to their extreme
stability and difficulty disintegrating, some of these
contaminants may have been produced for industrial
use.
 Signs of the
Environmental
Contamination
• Many warning signs exist indicate
that a dangerous disequilibrium is
being created in our ecosystems.
• Some researchers suspect that toxic
chemicals by products, heavy metals,
pesticides, hormones, pharmaceuticals
and other contaminants are responsible
for an increased frequency in
deformation of illnesses, death of
natural populations worldwide.
 Signs of the
Environmental
Contamination
• The culprits suspected by
some scientists are hormone-
disrupting chemicals in
agricultural run-off.
 EXAMPLES:
Chemicals such as DDT
DDT (dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane) was developed as the first of the modern
synthetic insecticides in the 1940s. It was initially used with great effect to combat
malaria, typhus, and the other insect-borne human diseases among both military and
civilian populations.

OIL SPILLS
Deaths and population declines of birds and fish linked to contamination
from oil spills
 EXAMPLES:
CONTAMINATED RUN-
Deaths and disorientation of OFF
marine mammals
(tortoise and whales) possibly due to coastal pollutant run-off.

CONTAMINATED
WATERS
Chemicals, including fertilizers and pesticides, can be washed off land
and enter waterways due to heavy rains or excessive watering, causing
runoff.
 Environmental
Contamination
Health Effects
• Chemical Exposure Linkage
In our own species, adverse health effects
linked to chemical exposure are increasingly
prevalent.
• Most Common Affected Age
👶Infancy (Birth to 1 year old) and;
🧒Early Childhood (Birth to 3 years old, or Pre-
School Early Age: 2-6 years of Age, before reaches
the 8th year may still be considered).
 Environmental
Contamination
Health Effects
• Infants and Early Childhood
Young children are more vulnerable to environmental
pollution due to their increased energy consumption and
need for food, water, and oxygen per unit mass.
• Update Status: Age Range
Recently, the incidence of birth defects and diseases
linked to environmental pollution has risen among
children living in environmentally-contaminated
areas of the world.
 Environmental
Contamination
Health Effects
• Leads to Childhood Cancer
The second most common cause of childhood
fatalities is now childhood cancer.

• Other Related Child Ailments

Additional health issues include Children who grow
up in contaminated communities now face issues like
childhood asthma and chronic lung illness. asthma.

What is a CONSUMPTION
IPA Transcription:
\kən-ˈsəm(p)-shən\

📚 Oxford Dictionary:
-It is the act of using energy, food, or materials; A
process of using resources to satisfy human wants or
needs.
📚 Merriam Webster Dictionary:

What is an ENERGY
IPA Transcription:
\ˈe-nər-jē\

📚 Oxford Dictionary:
-Usable power, or the capacity to do work, measured by
the capability to do work (potential energy) or the
conversion of this capability into motion (kinetic
energy).
📚 Merriam Webster Dictionary:
-It is a usable power (such as heat or
electricity).

Consumption of
Energy
Energy Consumption is the total amount of energy
required for a given process and is measured in
kilowatt hours (kWh). This includes the use of
electricity, gas, diesel, oil, and biomass.
Since higher consumption leads to worse energy
efficiency, the concepts of energy consumption and
energy efficiency are intimately related.
To simply say, Energy Consumption is the amount of
energy used.
 WORLD-WIDE
INDUSTRIALIZATION
• Worldwide, industrialization has
brought an increased demand for use
of energy resources.
• The world industrialized nations
have used tremendous quantity of
energy to fuel their business.
