What is soil pollution. How to prevent it?
Answers
Answer:
Soil pollution is defined as the presence of toxic chemicals (pollutants or contaminants) in soil, in high enough concentrations to pose a risk to human health and/or the ecosystem.
In the case of contaminants which occur naturally in soil, even when their levels are not high enough to pose a risk, soil pollution is still said to occur if the levels of the contaminants in soil exceed the levels that should naturally be present.
Explanation:
It can be prevented by using the following methods:
*Public awareness should be made for effects of soil pollution and make proper disposition of waste.
*Use dustbin to throw the garbage, at home as well as in public places.
*Plant more and more trees to prevent soil erosion.
*Use of organic manure, fertilizers, milder pesticides for agricultural activities.
*Do not throw plastic bags etc. on the way.
*Reuse any items like clothing, bottles, wrapping, paper, shopping bags.
