$\huge\red{\mid{\underline{\overline{\textbf{Answer \:࿐}}}\mid}}$

Environmental pollution has existed for centuries but only started to be significant following the industrial revolution in the 19th century. Pollution occurs when the natural environment cannot destroy an element without creating harm or damage to itself.

The elements involved are not produced by nature, and the destroying process can vary from a few days to thousands of years (that is, for instance, the case for radioactive pollutants). 

**In other words, pollution takes place when nature does not know how to decompose an element that has been brought to it in an unnatural way.
