Answer:
a) The Mathura refinery release chemicals like sulphur which rise into the atmosphere, mix with rain and oxygen and cause acid rain which corrodes the marble of Taj Mahal. This causes yellowing of Taj Mahal. That is why, the Mathura refinary has been closed.
b) Answer. The moon is at the same distance from the sun as the earth is but there is very cold and hot temperature variations, e.g. from -190°C to 110°C. The main reason behind this huge variation in temperature of moon is that it has no atmosphere. The atmosphere plays very important role in the temperature control.
2) The atmosphere mainly contains air which is a bad conductor of heat. ... The atmosphere prevents the sudden increase in temperature during the daylight hours and during the night, it slows down the escape of heat into the outer space. In this way, atmosphere acts as a blanket.
3) Long-term health effects from air pollution include heart disease, lung cancer, and respiratory diseases such as emphysema. Air pollution can also cause long-term damage to people's nerves, brain, kidneys, liver, and other organs. Some scientists suspect air pollutants cause birth defects.
4) Almost all types of water pollutants affect the life forms living in the water. ... With the increase in the amount of organic wastes in water, bacteria multiply very rapidly thus using up the available oxygen. The lack of oxygen hence caused kills the fish and other aquatic animals.
