Pollution: Earth Enemy Number One...

Pollution is the damage caused to the environment by harmful substances or waste . Pollution is our enemy number one today . Modern civilization and material progress have resulted in pollution everywhere – in the atmosphere , on land , in the seas and in the rivers .

Our air is polluted by smoke , gases and chemicals emitted by vehicles and factories . This pollution poisons the air and harms the ozone layer of the earth that protects us from the radiation of the sun . If the ozone layer is destroyed , mankind will perish . Nuclear radiation also pollutes the air causing terrible health hazards . Besides this , there is noise pollution in big cities caused by vehicles , machine , loudspeakers and crackers .

Tonnes of industrial and chemical waste are thoughtlessly dumped into our rivers , lakes and seas and they kill fish and other marine life . Unplanned growth of cities brings about more and more slums , where dirt , disease and death breed .

Pollution continues to increase as a result of the increasing number of motor vehicles on the roads . Exhaust fumes from the engines of automobiles contain a number of polluting substances . According to Taking A Stand Against Environmental Pollution by Newton , most of the substances that are harmful are : carbon monoxide and a variety of complex hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides . When exposed to sunlight , these substances undergo a change in their composition . As a result the substances produce the brown , toxic , smog .

We must take immediate and effective steps to fight pollution . We must reduce vehicular and factory smoke . We must stop the dumping of chemical waste into our rivers , lakes and seas . We must grow more trees , protects our forests , and have more gardens and open spaces . The sooner effective steps are taken the better it will be for mankind.
