Answer:
Burning of Fossil Fuels:
Coal and petroleum are fossil fuels found in earth’s crust. They are non-renewable and exhaustible resources. They must be conserved to get their advantage in present and future.
The burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil has increased the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2).
The burning of fossil fuels by industry, households and vehicles releases gaseous emissions of sulphur dioxide and oxides of nitrogen that can travel hundreds of miles in the atmosphere. These gases can be dissolved in rainwater to form sulphuric and nitric acids. These will subsequently be deposited on soil and result in soil acidification, soil eutrophication and structural damage to soil minerals. The acid rain may reach the water resources and contaminate. Oil may end up in soil or water in raw form, for example during oil spills.
We can reduce pollution by fossil fuel
- By reducing the use and burning of fuels .
- By using more efficient machines that will emit less pollutant .
- By introducing techniques of treating the pollutant before emitting in the atmosphere .
- By using alternative safer, eco- friendly technologies.
Effects of water pollution:
- It kills several water plants and animals (fish, dolphin, insects etc.) which live in the water bodies which are pollution.
- Sometimes the pollutants like dirt, silt etc create a layer of sediments in the water that prevents sunlight to reach to the aquatic organisms.
- In case of oil pollution, oil spills over the surface of water which prevents oxygen to pass inside, which results in the death of water organisms.
- If the oil coats birds feather or swallowed up by the fishes may kill them immediately.
- The polluted water if used for drinking or washing it may cause severe kidney and liver problems in human.
- If the water used for agriculture gets polluted, the pollutants like cadmium, lead etc. are absorbed by the crops that become harmful for our health.
- Hot or boiling polluted water that comes out of a thermal plant if thrown in a water body, kills all living organisms present in the water.
Answer:
Burning of fossil and its effect
burning of fossil fuel produce CO2 which is lead to increase in temperature of the earth surfaces and leads to respiratory problem in all living beings. water pollution may damage our health if we drink it and pollute our enivornment.
