known causes are factory wastes or leaking
underground tanks. These can be chemical
substances that are toxic. The polluted water can
cause cholera and typhoid fever. Water pollution
has led to the deaths of more than 14,000 people
daily.
Land pollution is the destruction of the earth’s land surfaces. It is often caused by human
activities such as careless disposal of wastes, over-mining of minerals and wrong use of
land for planting. All these will affect our health in the long run. They will lead to all kinds
of diseases such as cancer, heart disease and breathing problems. Land pollution also
brings about natural disasters such as flash floods and landslides.
Air pollution is also the result of human activity where chemicals and other dangerous
materials are released into the air. This happens through the release of carbon monoxide
gas from exhaust pipes of motor vehicles. Other gases such as sulphur oxides are released
from the burning of coal and oil. High air pollution levels can cause damage to the
environment. It also brings discomfort to humans and other living organisms. In the long
term, air pollution can cause serious breathing problems, lung cancer and heart disease.
