Answer: Soil contamination as part of soil degradation is caused by the presence of heterogeneous biochemicals or other changes in the natural soil environment. This is usually caused by industrial activity, pesticides, or improper waste disposal. The most common chemicals used are petroleum hydrocarbons, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, pesticides, lead, and other heavy metals. Pollution correlates with the level of industrialization and the strength of the chemical. Concerns about soil contamination arise primarily from health risks, direct contact with contaminated soil, pollutant smoke, or secondary contamination of groundwater and groundwater supplies. Deforestation is also a cause of soil contamination.
