Environment refers to the natural world. Environment refers surrounding (such as air, water, land) and their inter-relationship with human beings and other living species. The flora anywhere on the earth, the soil and the stones, the rivers and water bodies, the sky and the air, the seas and the oceans, the fauna everywhere in the world, the climate and the interior of the earth – all combine together to form the environment. Meaning of Pollution Pollution comes from the Latin ‘polluere’ which means to contaminate. So, pollution is something that contaminates the environment. Pollution means the presence of substances in the air, water, and land, which has an adverse effects (harmful or poisonous) on living organisms (human-beings, animals, plants, etc.) and on environment. It refers to the: harmful gases, fluid or other pernicious matter that are released or introduced in the natural environment, toxic material that makes the soil and air impure, contaminants, pollutants, or hazardous substances that makes environment unsuitable or unsafe, introduction of untreated chemicals that degrades or changes the biological properties of fresh water bodies such as lakes, rivers, ground water, etc. unwanted and intolerable level of energies such as noise, radiation, etc. resultant effect of the activities that disrupts the biodiversity of the ecosystem, or poses a threat to the sustainability of the environment, Our environment is in danger due to pollution. The atmosphere is being polluted by discharge of emissions from industrial plants, domestic sources, running vehicles, which burns fossil fuel and from thermal power etc. Public health and hygiene are seriously effected in the cities of developed and developing countries by presence of Sulphur dioxide, Carbon dioxide, Nitrogen oxide, Carbon monoxide, Hydro carbon substance, etc. Also read: Essay on Environmental Pollution: Causes, Effects and Solution Different Types of Pollution The various types of environmental pollution includes air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, radioactive pollution, noise pollution, light pollution, oil pollution, marine pollution, plastic pollution, etc. They are each discussed below: 1. Air pollution Air pollution means the presence of pollutants in the atmosphere is such concentration that causes injury to human being, animals and plants. Air pollution is the name for anything that makes the air dirty. Thus, air pollution is anything that contaminates the air and makes it harmful to breathe for humans, animals and birds. Of course, air pollution will depend on the context: some things may be counted as air pollution in some contexts, but not in others. But, in sum, air pollution can be defined as: Anything that contaminates the air. Something that makes the air dangerous to breathe. Potentially dependent on the context. Air pollution can be both indoor and outdoor as follows: Indoor air pollution:

6. What is Atmosphere
• Atmosphere is the life blanket of Earth.
• It is therefore essential that we know more
about the atmosphere and the ways in
which it is Polluted.

7. Causes of Air Pollution

-Automobiles and Domestic fuels
-High Proportion of undesirable
gases, such as sulphur dioxide and carbon
monoxide

8. Effects of Air Pollution
Air Pollution affects???
• Human health
