POLLUTION

Pollution introduces types

of contaminants into the natural

environment that causes

unfriendly change. It can be of

two types: chemical substance or

energy.

WATER

Non-polluted Polluted

WATER

The specific contaminants leading to pollution in water include a

wide spectrum of chemicals, pathogens and physical changes such as

elevated temperature and discoloration. High concentrations of

naturally occurring substances can have negative impacts on aquatic

flora and fauna.

Contaminants can be organic and inorganic substances.

SOIL

Non-polluted Polluted

SOIL

Soil can be polluted in many ways. This happens because chemicals are spilt by leak or spill.

Soil may be lost too.

Heavy wind or rain that may occur at any time will carry the soil or flood by too rain.

Sometimes this is even polluted by human made chemicals,. It is usually caused by industries,

or improper disposal of waste.

This is a list of what can cause this:

Accidental Spills

Acid rain

Intensive farming

Deforestation

AIR

Non-polluted Polluted

AIR

Air can be polluted much easier. This

can happen by airplanes cars and

industrial ships. Air pollution is

causing disease, death to humans and

damage to other living organisms

such as: crops and more.

AIR

Air pollutant is a substance in the air that can have unfriendly effects on

humans and the ecosystem. The substance can be solid, liquid, or gas. A

pollutant can be of natural origin or human-made. Pollutants are classified as

primary or secondary. Primary pollutants are usually produced from a process,

such as ash from a volcanic eruption. Secondary pollutants indirectly emitted.

Rather, they form in the air when primary pollutants react or interact. Some

pollutants may be both primary and secondary: they are both emitted directly

and formed from other primary pollutants.
