Environmental Pollution

Air pollution is generally any substance that people introduce into the atmosphere that has damaging effects on living things and the environment.(www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/global-warming/pollution/) There are many causes, effects and many reasons like the environment, public health, and any other reasons. Air pollution is harmful for our present and future lives and should be avoided at all costs.

Air pollution is when there is a presence in the air of a substance that has harmful or poisonous effects. There is air pollution almost everywhere in the world. This is due to industrialization. The world today depends on things that emit hazardous fumes and other hazardous pollutants in the air. Air pollution that is hazardous or toxic can have health risks. Some of these risks range from skin rash, cough and headache to cancer, nervous system damage and birth defects. There are no positive effects of air pollution. Air pollution is also in the form of acid rain. Acid rain pours wherever it’s ready. Acid rain destroys plants, harms animals, fish and other wildlife. Humans aren’t the only ones affected by air pollution everything is affected.

There are many kinds of air pollution. The ones I want to talk about are the ozone, acid rain, carbon monoxide and toxic air contaminants. Ozone is formed when hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide react in sunlight.

Air pollution occurs when the air is contaminated by foreign substances. These substances can be liquid or solid and they are small enough that they remain suspended in the air. Some of the substances can be toxic chemicals which can include sulphur dioxide (SO2), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), ozone (O3), volatile organic compounds and suspended particulate matter (PM).

At the first, what is air pollution? The air pollution is contamination of air by the discharge of harmful substances. We’ve got many pollutants, which cause air pollution. Like carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons, lead and many more. All of these pollutants can cause lot of illnesses, like cancer, birth defects, brain and nerve damage, long-term injury to the

Excessive exposure to air pollution has been a major concern due to its adverse health outcomes, particularly sick people with upper or inferior respiratory symptoms know that severe respiratory impacts can take place due to air pollution based on the information from the media. It is vital for the relevant specialists to possess present information of the probable health impacts as well as the manner in which they might influence their clients in order to instruct them adequately. This paper provides some overview of the findings for the research conducted on the main causes and health effects of air pollution especially on people with upper or inferior respiratory problems. The suggestions and solutions made in respect of this paper are

The air pollution that hangs over the cities sits in the atmosphere and affects millions if not billions of people all over the world and can have serious health effects. Concerns for those that become exposed to pollutions can experience things such as lung and respiratory diseases or difficulties, cardiovascular complications, coughing, irritation to the eyes and throat, symptoms or increased symptoms of asthma, a heart attack, cancer or even death. Some people may be more sensitive to pollutants than others such as children, elderly, and those who already have respiratory problems. The mass effects not only cause disruptions to human health but also to the health of the environment as well. The pollution in the air has the potential for causing acid rain which is caused

Let have a critical look at our environment as a complex system with many different interaction between its different components making life possible on earth. Unfortunately, human activities over the years have adversely affected the chemical, biological, physical and social component of the natural environment leading to environmental pollution and climatic change. In the United Kingdom for example, the ‘Great Smog of 1952’ cannot be forgotten in history when we talk about environmental pollution and it effect on human. The great smog of 1952 which was formed from steady smog missed with soot and sulphur dioxide from coal burning occurred killed 12,000 people in the United Kingdom killed (Fullerton 2016). This in addition to other serious environmental pollution and their effect on the environment and human has greatly affected policies and control of emissions into the environment. (Dunnings, ND)

For my final project I have chosen to research water quality, primarily focusing my attention to watersheds on invasive and non-invasive species that can potentially wreak havoc on bodies of water. There are a total of 944 lakes located here in NH where I live. The largest lake in the state is Lake Winnipesaukee, which is very popular for many reasons, including its beauty and all the recreational activities it brings. While most spend their days swimming and boating on the “big lake” (that’s what we locals refer to is as), they are seemingly unaware to the dangers that lurk beneath the surface threatening economic and ecological losses. The biggest threat to the big lake is milfoil. Milfoil is an invasive aquatic plant that has been contaminating Lake Winnipesaukee since it was first spotted in 1965. This topic has always been of concern to me. It’s sad, really. Something so beautiful and natural can be overrun, affecting the livelihood of the lake and all who enjoy it. My hope is that through education we can greatly reduce the amount of milfoil in our lakes.

Environmental health is your wellbeing of your surroundings or conditions in which a human, animal,

Air Pollution pollution in my community has received very little concern or not given much attention. In essay will focus much in my community where I live, therefore it will not touch much details as per country per se but what pollutants have been identified in my community.

Today, it is tough to decide that which is the bigger threat to humanity, terrorism or pollution. Apparently the former seems a bit more dreadful, but statistics reveal that the latter is causing more mayhem in countries like China and India. The monster is so threatening outside that people can’t go out without covering their faces, and now it is making people breathless even inside their houses. This crude & unkind pollution is indiscriminately attacking the human race. According to a recent report of Lancet medical journal, pollution had claimed 2.5 million lives (approx) in India in the year 2015, highest numbers of deaths due to pollution in the world. The condition is getting more and more severe day by day, toxin content is already above the threshold limit in all the metros of India, and Delhi is on the top of the list with 600+ µg/m3 particulate matter level. Pollution is causing panic not just outside the doors, but also inside the living and working spaces.

The smog is said to be a cloud causing low visibility to qualify as smog, there should be enough pollution, smoke, and moisture in the air. The smoke and other particulate matters combine with fog when there is high humidity and low temperatures to form smog. Pollution refers to the contamination of the earth's environment with materials that interfere with human health, quality of life or the natural functioning of the ecosystems. The major forms of pollution include water pollution, air pollution, noise pollution and soil contamination. Other less-recognised forms include thermal pollution and radioactive hazards. It is difficult to say that any one particular form responsible for maximum risk to health;

The ozone layer is earth's natural shield from the sun and without it we would dead. The ozone layer can never be repaired, so any damage done to it is permanent. A world without the ozone layer would immediately result in no vegetation, most animals dead, surviving humans flesh would be burning, cancer and organ deterioration. To prevent this from happening, we need to take care of the air and work together to live in a safer environment.

With a rapid level of industrialization and a growing population throughout the past couple of decades, China has become the world’s largest emitter. Consequently, through the combination of these two factors, the Asian country suffers from high levels of air pollution. Amongst many of the rapidly industrialized cities, Shanghai stands out as one of the greatest commercial and most industrial cities in China. For this reason, due to increases in population, energy consumption and infrastructural density, the levels of different health effects of air pollution have reached serious levels. From increases in heart diseases and mortality rates, to increases in respiratory conditions, it is clear that the city of Shanghai is suffering from epidemic levels of air pollution. Additionally, one of the large factors, amongst others, that can be attributed to health complication throughout Shanghai is the increase of sulfur dioxide in the air. (Song et al., 2008)
