Air Pollution today has lead CDC's fight against environmental -related respiratory illness, including asthma.An estimated number of 6.5 million deaths are attributed each year to poor air quality, making this the world's largest threat to human health.According to the World Energy Outlook and the IEA estimate that death due to household air pollution in Africa may decrease by 110,00 to 2040.However, due to economic growth, urbanization and automobile emissions, outdoor air pollution may rise from 300,00 to 450,000 over the same period. Am going to be looking at the causes of air pollution. the problems emerging with air pollution and also how we as a community can help decrease the amount of death rate associated with air pollution.I remember growing up in Africa Air pollution was always a talk about a subject that always comes out because it is really contagious due to the fact that we are breathing bad air that is caused by our human contribution to the environment.Air pollution is considered to be a public health problem, it is responsible for most of our health problems after some research has been conducted in many different parts of the world and regions. According to the Geochemistry and Health paleopathological research suggests that air pollution is a form of smoke, plagued our oldest ancestors.Air pollution has emerged as one of the leading risk factors for stroke worldwide.

“Without water, life would not exist.” This is a quote taken from Water.org. However, it needs a little clarification, Without clean water, life will not exist for long. There are many countries today that do not have access to clean water. This necessity we the people of the United States of America take for granted is not a normal occurrence in every country. With this paper we will look at five different countries with the most polluted water in the world. We will see what is being done to help reduce the water pollution and how the water pollution is effecting the economy is these countries.

Water pollution from combined sewer overflow (CSO) into rivers and other waterways has become an increasing problem in the United States. An estimated 850 billion gallons of untreated storm and sewage water are released into our waterways each year. Given that our grey water infrastructures are unable to handle the volume of water entering their systems, a sustainable, eco-friendly solution is needed. A constructed wetland is a type of green infrastructure that can help to solve this problem of CSO. The cost of constructing this green infrastructure is less than that of traditional grey infrastructure. Advantages of the constructed wetland goes beyond improved water quality, to include lower operational costs, an added recreational area, increased habitat which could lead to greater diversity of wildlife. Educating local officials and community members about the benefits and sustainability of the green infrastructure will be vital in initiating the process of creating a wetland.

Abstract—The no of vehicles in operation world- wide had surpassed the 1 billion mark in 2010 .The rate at which this number is increasing is proportio- nal to the pollution level and maintenance problems. By automating this process using Internet of things and machine learning , we can make vehicles smarter, easily maintanable and more efficient. The paper formulates this approach using examples and explain- in detail about the techniques used.

Air pollution is presence of chemicals or compounds in the air that is usually no there. There are two types of air pollution, Smog, or “ground-level ozone,” as it is more wonkily called, occurs when emissions from combusting fossil fuels react with sunlight and Soot, or “particulate matter,” is made up of tiny particles of chemicals, soil, smoke, dust, or allergens, in the form of gas or solids, that are carried in the air.

The world is dying. It is being overrun with human pollution. Nobody notices where the most polluted parts are in the ocean, until they see trash floating upon waves, which then washes onto the shores. Animals get tangled up and cannot escape from human filth. There is no escape for them. There is no way for them to swim freely without getting tangled up. This is why people need to help prevent trash from getting into the oceans. Even if helping prevents trash from entering the ocean cost more money than allowing it to enter the water system, it will prevent ecosystems, environments and their climates from perishing.

There is pollution in major bodies of water in Iowa due to runoff from farms. This runoff makes its way through rivers and streams to eventually reach the Gulf of Mexico. Runoff is a major issue in Buena Vista, a county in Iowa, because it’s water has been so badly polluted. Raccoon River was so badly polluted that the Des Moines Water Works filed a federal lawsuit against them. Buena Vista county decided to hire multiple law groups to handle the lawsuit. This came with the question as to who was funding these law groups as they were being paid by a group of donators. Eventually the county had to clean the Raccoon River and the question was posed of how to limit the amount of nitrogen pollution caused by the runoff from Raccoon River. It was estimated to cost $16 billion to clean the river which wasn’t economically logical.

a result, large numbers of cities are suffering from air pollution. Almost two-thirds of cities in china have

Pollution is a major problem in water systems all around the world and in our creek. In our area, eutrophication and acid rain are the two main pollution problems in our area. Eutrophication can be caused by sewage treatment plants, home sewage systems, and farm fertilizer runoff. Acid rain can be caused by the burning of fossil fuel. Eutrophication causes plants to die and when the plants die, the bacteria from the dead plants use up the oxygen from the water, which causes the fish to die.

Did you know that eating the fish you love like tuna or shark could actually do harm to your body? Fishes are a great source of proteins, nutrients, and omega-3 fatty acids, however they’re also laden with mercury which could be a problem. The poisonous pollution of mercury is contaminating the ocean which then becomes methylmercury, can be dangerous if you consume a bountiful amount of fish containing high levels of mercury; therefore, individuals should reduce their consumption of fish containing high levels of mercury, corporations should find ways to reduce mercury pollution, and the federal government should make a law to reduce gold mines, coal burning power-plants, and factories in order to lower emissions.

Individuals have a moral responsibility to reduce their greenhouse gas emission. First, the pollution from various parts of the universe can negatively impact people living in areas far from the point of contamination. In this case, it is unethical to make other individuals suffer because of engaging in reckless behavior that can be avoided. Humans are social beings, and therefore, they have the obligation of protecting each other from harm of any kind. In extreme cases, climate changes, such as prolonged drought and floods caused by the accumulation of greenhouse gases result in death. Life is precious, and individuals have a moral obligation to protect it by all possible means. Second, the effects of releasing toxic gases into the atmosphere are felt after several years. In this case, when people produce toxic emission into the environment today, they put the survival of future generations at risk. Individuals fail to realize that if the ancestors engaged in irresponsible behaviors that the current generation seems to take part in fearlessly, today the world would not be fit for human survival. In this light, people have the accountability of reducing their greenhouse gas emission.

Not only has climate changed the natural habits of weather in the world, it has also started to melt the fresh water ice caps which is causing the sea levels to rise. Globally sea levels rose by eight inches in the past century. Within two decades sea levels have increased more than twice of the increases recorded in the last century. This has caused many cities and countries to slowly sink into the ocean for an example Virginia’s Tangier Island. The ocean has reclaimed about 70% of the island in the past century. To make things better the President of the United States “Donald Trump” told the mayor ‘Your Island has been there for hundreds of years, and I believe your island will be there for hundreds more.’ The denial of climate change has been around for a century now but that should not be a cause to not continue to improve the way things are done to reduce the pollutants released into the atmosphere. If people in many of these advanced countries started to use public transportation most of the emissions created by vehicals can be drastically decreased. If gas guzlers were swapped for something more eco the release of these harmful fumes can be decreased. If these guzzling cars are changed for cars with electricity and hydro fuel can also help the earth. Venice, Italy is another city that is in the state of panic. The City of Venice will flood time to time like it is a natural occurrence. This flooding issue hasn’t just been a recent issue it started since the beginning

Pollution is harmful to the world that we have come to love and know. Pollution’s harmful effects on the natural world, our environment is tragic. Pollution is a hazard to a human’s health, and causes a vulnerable stage to the Earth’s ecosystem. There are several types of pollution such as; noise, water, air, thermal, and many more. Water pollution, in particular, is the contamination from harsh chemicals, from various outlets, that spread into the bodies of water that will affect humans, land animals, aquatic animals, living plants, and many more.

The purpose of this letter is to inform you that as of 2017, the world has gone downhill. We have polluted our clean water. Our fresh air is no longer fresh due to abusing the amount of fossil fuels we had and the ability and opportunity to use them during our everyday life. Additionally, we have decreased certain animal populations alarmingly and they are important resources. This letter was sent to you so that your future choices will benefit the world and future generations.

en I moved in Chicago four years ago, I assumed water it would be the last problem for the one of the biggest cities in the world. Considering that Chicago has a very big water resource such is Lake Michigan, seems that water pollution is increasing every day. First weeks in Chicago, I was told by my friends, not to drink the water by the tap, otherwise I would get sick. They suggested me to buy water bottles, as the water from the tap was very dirty. I always asked myself, why Chicago is listed in one of the cities that has water pollution, when it has opportunities to abolish this problem. This topic always provoked me, because we can take care of this problem if we really know what we should do.
