Answer:

1.Air Pollution

Air pollution is the contamination of air by smoke particles and harmful gases.

2.Land Pollution

This kind of pollution is actually the degradation (becoming unusable) of Earth’s surface . There are 2 causes, and guess what, a pile of waste is one of them. Land pollution is mainly caused by improper disposal of waste and the misuse of resources.

3.Garbage Pollution

It is caused by the mismanagement of solid waste from human & their activities, waste collectors and waste disposal contractors. The effects of this type of pollution is the spread of harmful bacteria in the surroundings, as well as obnoxious odours which will also end up as air pollution. The water will also get contaminated, which will transmit parasites and bacteria to humans.

4.Beach Pollution

Beach pollution is waste like plastic bags, nets, or cigarette filters that being thrown to beach. This waste harms sea creatures and affects the marine environment. It is often caused by irresponsible beach visitors littering and leaving their waste behind after a picnic or get together.

5.Plastic Pollution

Plastic pollution is hard and soft non-biodegradable plastic that stays on the land for thousands of years or forever (pretty much all plastic is this type of plastic). It will stay forever in the soil and harm the soil’s health and composition.

Answer:

The term "pollution" refers to any substance that negatively impacts the environment or organisms that live within the affected environment. The five major types of pollution include air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, light pollution, and noise pollution.

Explanation:

Air Pollution

A major source of air pollution results from the burning of fossil fuels. Vehicle and factory emissions are common sources of this type of air pollution. The burning of fossil fuels contributes to the formation of smog, a dense layer of particulate matter that hangs like a cloud over many major cities and industrial zones. Air pollution contributes to respiratory problems such as asthma, lung cancer, chronic bronchitis, and other lung ailments. Nitrogen and sulfur oxides in the air contribute to acid rain, which is a form of precipitation with a lower (more acidic) pH than normal. Acid rain harms forests, species that live in water bodies, and degrades outdoor statues, monuments, and buildings.

Water Pollution

A major source of water pollution is runoff from agricultural fields, industrial sites, or urban areas. Runoff disrupts the water body's natural balance. For example, agricultural runoff typically includes fertilizer or toxic chemicals. Fertilizer can cause algal blooms (an explosive growth of algae), choking out other plants and decreasing the amount of available oxygen necessary for the survival of other species. Raw sewage is another type of water pollutant. When sewage gets into the drinking water supply, serious stomach and digestive issues may result, including the spread of diseases such as typhoid or dysentery. The third source of water pollution is trash. Improperly disposed of items, such as plastic bags, fishing line, and other materials may accumulate in the water and lead to the premature death of animals that get tangled within the garbage.

Soil Pollution

Soil can become polluted by industrial sources or the improper disposal of toxic chemical substances. Common sources of soil pollution include asbestos, lead, PCBs, and overuse of pesticides/herbicides. In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is in charge of cleaning up uncontrolled hazardous waste sites, which are referred to as "Superfund" sites. Many of these sites are abandoned or improperly-managed industrial zones.

Light Pollution

Light pollution refers to the large amount of light produced by most urban and other heavily-populated areas. Light pollution prevents citizens from seeing features of the night sky and has also been shown to impede the migration patterns of birds and the activities of nocturnal animals.

Noise Pollution

Noise pollution typically refers to human-made noises that are either very loud or disruptive in manner. This type of pollution has been shown to impact the movement of sea mammals, such as dolphins and whales and also impacts the nesting success of birds.
