Pollution is one of the major problems faced by the whole world. Pollution means the contaminants are introduced to the mother nature which could make adverse changes to the environment. Pollution can be of any form like chemical substances, heat, noise, and many other things. Pollutants are the components of pollution. It can be either natural substance or chemical substance or energy substance. A pollutant is a waste material that pollutes air, water or soil. Three
factors determine the severity of a pollutant: its chemical nature, the
concentration and the persistence.
Pollution can be classified into many forms like Air pollution, Water pollution, Noise pollution, Soil Contamination, radioactive contamination, thermal pollution etc.
Air pollution is caused by natural or man made. Common gaseous pollutants are Chlorofluorocarbons, Carbon mono oxide, carbondioxide and etc. Another major pollutant of the air pollution in the vehicles, factories, refrigerators and etc.
Water pollution is caused by introducing the waste or dangerous materials in the water. Some of the water pollutants are sewage or waste water, factory waste, chemicals used to clean waters like chlorine and many other things.
Noise pollution is caused by high sounds used by vehicles, factory sounds, high frequency sounds and etc.
Thermal Pollution and Radioactive contamination is caused by using the Thermal products and radio active components to make weapons research, wars and etc.
Effects of pollution:
Due to pollution we are facing many problems like global warming, hole in the ozone layer, many diseases caused due to pollution, and etc.
Pollution Control: It is the one of the ways used by the countries to stop pollution or lessen the effects of pollution. Some of the pollution control measures are recycling, Reusing, mitigation, Waste minimisation, usage of more natural resources, green house gases and etc.
If the pollution is not controlled then the world will collapse.
