Question

Article on environmental pollution in 80 to 100 words

Answer 1

Answer:

Anything added into the environment that results in producing harmful or poisonous effect on living things is called pollution. Pollution is the process that makes nature’s resources such as land, water, air or other parts of the environment unsafe or unsuitable to use. Pollution can be of many types:  soil, air, water, thermal, radioactive, noise, and light. The toxins released are inhaled by each one of us while we breathe.

Pollution and its Causes

Inhaling poisonous air is as hazardous as smoking. It is not only the humans who are affected from this polluted environment but also the animals. Air is filled with highly toxic gases. These dangerous gases in environment are released by the power industries that burn fossil fuels, industries that dispose wastes in the water, farmers using pesticides, high usage of artificial lights and loud sounds, etc. Each of these leads to generation of the life threatening cause – pollution.

Any use of natural resources at a rate higher than the nature’s capacity to restore itself can result in pollution of air, water, and land. Other than human activities, there are a few periodic natural cycles that also result in release of dangerous stuff. Natural activities other than the human activities like volcanic eruption, dust wildfires, etc also result in creation of pollution.

Globalization is another major cause of pollution. Globalization has become an effective facilitator of environmental degradation.

hope it helps

Answer 2

Introduction

The environment is like our mother. If she is unwell how do you presume that she will be able to nurse or nurture you with her milk for infants and other caring components in her nature for the adults. Her care is a physical, intellectual and emotional support that is healthy for her children. Similarly all the natural resources that belong to our earth are like our inheritance for the safety of our health and future. When we become selfish and dig deep into her resources, we degrade and pollute her. When we become greedy we empty her coffin as well. Nevertheless our health depends on her well-being. It is a direct equation.

 

Environmental Pollution and Its Effect on Health

It is needless to repeat that environmental pollution has degraded and spread its poisonous tentacles in the very basic human needs – food, water, air, soil – inhaling, eating, drinking damages or has ill-effects on human and animal health. Gaseous emissions from industries, motor vehicle combustions and burning fossil fuels into air; oil spills, solid industrial waste, city garbage, plastic dumps find their way into water; similarly vegetable waste and inorganic methods of farming denudes the soil depriving it of its fertility. Since soil is the source of food, water is for drinking and air is meant for breathing; all three polluted elements inject their toxins into human body and incur diseases in it.

The diseases can include any of these – Asthma, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Skin cancer, Lung cancer, Cardiovascular diseases and Stroke, Lead poisoning, Mercury poisoning, Radiation augmented cancers, Allergies, Birth defects, Lung diseases due to occupational exposure to various toxins; the list is endless.

Conclusion

We are all regressing towards an unhealthy future for every living creature not only humans beings. The signals of depleting health are loud and clear – pollution – in air we breathe, water we drink and use for various purposes and inorganic food we process and eat.
