Air pollution can be caused by both human and anthropogenic sources. The main contributors for air pollution are human-made pollutants due to activities like combustion, construction; mining, agriculture and warfare are significant. Emissions from motor vehicles are one of the leading causes of air pollution.Pollution sources that are stationary include chemical plants, coal-fueled power plants, petrochemical plants, oil refineries, nuclear waste disposal, large live stock farms, incinerators, factories producing PVC, metals, plastics and other heavy industry. Pollution from agriculture comes from clear felling, burning and spraying of pesticides and herbicides. Humans are the primary cause of global warming since 1950s. Soil contaminants include chlorinated hydrocarbons, heavy metals, solid hospital wastes, lead, fuel. Ordinary landfills are the source of chemical substances entering the soil environment.Water pollution can be caused by discharge of toxic pollutants like pesticides, heavy metals and non-degradable chemical compounds into fresh or ocean waters. The sources of these can be industries, chemical, heavy metal, hospital wastes. They also can be untreated or partially treated sewage water.
