1. Combustible solid wastes should be burnt in incinerators. This method does not solve the problem in a real sense because in this, solid waste is being converted into gaseous wastes causing air pollution. Unless it is properly controlled, incineration may cause more nuisance.

2. Solid organic wastes including faecal matter and wastes from tanneries should be converted into compost manure at the places far away from the cities and human dwellings. The composting should be done in pits or in heaps adequately covered with layers of soil at least 8-10 cm thick to prevent fly breeding and rat menace which are important carriers of various diseases.

3. Non-combustible solid waste materials like ash, rubbish, tins, glass pieces if not recoverable for usual purposes should be disposed of by landfill method in low-lying areas.

4. Anaerobic septic tank treatment can be used for individual houses or small communities. Besides, aerobic biological treatment systems including trickling filters, activated sludge treatment and oxidation ponds can also be used for liquid wastes or sewage disposal.

5. Automobiles must be either made to eliminate use of gasoline and diesel oil or complete combustion is obtained in the engine so that noxious compounds are not emitted. The automobiles, trucks and other transport systems must have an antismog device. In some countries factories are using devices like scrubbers, cyclone separators or electrostatic precipitators to minimize pollution.

6. There should be cut back in the use of fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides and other agrochemicals as far as possible.

7. Excessive and undesirable burning of vegetation should be stopped.

8. Sponges and towels should be used in place of paper towels and also the use of paper cups and plates and similar materials should be stopped.

9. Little use of electric appliances and motor-nm appliances will reduce thermal pollution.

10. Washing soda and scouring pad should be used instead of detergents.

Ways to control Pollution are:

10. Take  your own bag when you go for shopping instead of taking plastic bags from the store which cause so much pollution. Using reusable cloth bags, napkins will prevent you from buying new products in future. Brown paper bags can be used for packing ang wrapping and is a great option to control pollution.

9. Driving less will help in controlling pollution as carbon dioxide is released from cars in a huge amount, moreover you can always pool your car. Also prefer walking or riding cycles whenever possible more over its good for your health too and will reduce environmental pollution by driving less.

8. One should be aware of Electricity use also. When appliances are not in use one should switch off or the better option is to unplug the appliance. It will save energy and utilize less natural resources.

7. (This ones strange and hardest to implement)Non-Vegeterian food consumes more water and energy than production or cooking of wheat. Eating less meat is a good option to control energy and water. And as now it is hard to control wastage of water, and in meat industry it is the main problem so one should replace non-veg food with veg food.

6. Buy local food from the stores which have travelled only few miles to reach there. Except the produced food which has traveled 1000-2000 miles to reach there and even need refrigeration to survive. A lot of pollution can be controlled by simply buying local food.

5. Planting trees is a best option to control pollution and it is a best feeling as doing this as a hobby. Plant tree in your garden and it will give you shadow when it will get mature. Planting trees also increase the oxygen level in the environment and you can also grow vegetables. If one is not having the garden, they can also grow small plants and flowers in their rooms.

4. Recycling is a best option to control pollution. Waste products from households like paper, plastic, cloth can be recycled at dump place. Even phone batterries, mobiles and computers can be recycled. In many places E-waste  method is growing so fast that it helps in keeping harmful products end in local ecosystem.

3. Try to control the temperature or loads on air conditioners, refrigerators, furnaces and gysers. If you put less load and able to make an impact on government by improving your home energy efficiency you can receive tax credits. And you will get money back from government for using less electricity.

2. Buying green products is a best method to prevent pollution. Green products are environmentally responsible. Green products are made specially keeping in the mind the concept of controlling pollution. Green products need less packaging and and can also be seen as a charity in environment. Green products like detergents, cleansers , chemical formula’s are less harmful and dissolve in water easily.

1. The most important way to control Pollution is by joining national groups or societies that put pressure on government to take action against the industrialist that are causing pollution by releasing waste. By putting pressure on corporations to consume less energy. When a law like in Ireland will pass here, literally billions of plastic bags will be removed. Young youth should come forward against the use of plastic bags and help in making  this law in India also.
