This document discusses different types of pollution including air, water, and land pollution. It defines air pollution as atmospheric conditions with undesirable substances that affect humans and the environment. Sources of air pollution include natural sources like dust storms and volcanoes, as well as man-made sources from industry, automobiles, agriculture, and domestic activities. Major air pollutants discussed are ozone, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, particulate matter, and their health effects. The document also examines causes, sources, and effects of water pollution from point sources like waste water and non-point sources like agricultural runoff. Causes and consequences of land pollution from construction, agriculture, domestic waste, and industry are outlined.
Air pollution is a mixture of solid particles and gases in the air. Car emissions, chemicals from factories, dust, pollen and mold spores may be suspended as particles. Ozone, a gas, is a major part of air pollution in cities. When ozone forms air pollution, it's also called smog.

Air pollution is the introduction of particulates, biological molecules, or other harmful gases into Earth's atmosphere, causing disease, death to humans, damage to other living organisms such as food crops, or the natural or built environment.
There are many environmental issues in India. Air pollution, water pollution, garbage, and pollution of the natural environment are all challenges for India. The situation was worse between 1947 through 1995. According to data collection and environment assessment studies of World Bank experts, between 1995 through 2010, India has made one of the fastest progress in the world, in addressing its environmental issues and improving its environmental quality.Still, India has a long way to go to reach environmental quality similar to those enjoyed in developed economies. Pollution remains a major challenge and opportunity for India.Environmental issues are one of the primary causes of disease, health issues and long term livelihood impact for India.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

2. What is pollution?
Pollution is the introduction of harmful
substances or products into the
environment
We will be examining 3 main parts of
pollution
Water Pollution
Air Pollution
Land Pollution
3. DEFINITION for Air Pollution
It is defined as any atmospheric
condition in which certain substances
are present in such concentrations
that they produce undesirable effects
on humans and environment.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9. Sources of air pollution
Natural –
Dust storms, volcanoes, foods, lightning,
etc.
Man-made –
industrial activities,
automobile exhausts
agricultural, domestic conditions,
10. Pollutants of air :
Particulate pollutants -
are solids or liquids with size< 100 microns
that remain suspended in the atmosphere
Dust ,
Fumes ,
Smoke ,Mist,
Fog,Bacteria
Gaseous - Toxic and poisonous
e.g. CO, chlorine, NH3, H2S, SO2, NO2,
CO2.
11. Major Pollutants
Ozone a
Transient damage
Permanent damage
accelerated aging of the lung T
Carbon monoxide m
a - heart disease , lung diseases
- central nervous system ↓ response to
external stimuli
- Normal individual during strenuous work
Transient heart disease
- lung diseases
- central nervous system
↓ response to external stimuli
- Normal individual during strenuous
(symptoms similar of flu)
12. Sulphur dioxide
- Trigger asthma especially in children
sulphur dioxide affects adults and children
differently and that chronic and acute
effects may also be different
13.
14. Particulate Matter
Diesel
- Cancer
- Asthmatic attacks in children
- Eye and throat irritation
- Headache
- Lightheadedness
- Nausea
- Perception of unpleasant odors
- Lung inflammation.
15. why specially in children
Children spend more time
itself
- outdoors
especially in the summer time when
ozone levels are the highest
- engaged in vigorous activity
Have a higher breathing rate
Not likely to receive / understand the
biological warnings
Breathe through mouth also
Have narrower airways
Impairment of the lung's ability to defend
16. Control of air pollution
Society
Industries
Legislation
guidelines for setting of industries
emission standards for industries
development of pollution prevention technologies
Vehicular pollution
stringent emission norms
cleaner fuel quality
18. Causes of Water Pollution
Factors that contribute to water pollution can be
categorized into two different groups
Point sources
Non-point sources
Point sources are the easiest to identify and control
Non point sources are ambiguously defined and
harder to control
19. Point Sources
Some point sources of water pollution include
Waste products from factories
Waste from sewage system
Waste from power plants
Waste from underground coalmines
Waste from oil wells
They are called point sources because they are direct
sources of water pollution and can be reduced and
monitored
20. Contd….
Keep track of air pollution levels
limit the outdoor time in vigorous play
during unhealthy airtime
Plan the most strenuous activities for the
early morning hours
Keep outdoor activities away from busy
roadways and other sources of
pollution.
21. Contd…
Proper disposal of waste
- dry leaves, old tyres, Plastics & garbage
Shift to cleaner fuels
- vehicle, cooking
Save energy
- decrease fuel consumption
23. Non-point Sources
The term non-point source encompasses a
large range of sources such as:
when rain or snow moves through the ground and
picks up pollutants as it moves towards a major
body of water
the runoff of fertilizers from farm animals and crop
land
air pollutants getting washed or deposited to earth
storm water drainage from lawns, parking lots, and
streets
26. Causes of Air Pollution
One of the main causes of air pollution is the
release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere,
this happens because of Deforestation and
fossil fuel burning
Sulfur dioxide is another air polluter and is
released into the atmosphere by the burning of
sulfur containing compounds of fossil fuels.
Sulfur oxides are very dangerous to humans at
a high concentration. Sulfur in the atmosphere
is responsible for acid rain
27. More causes of air pollution: CFCs
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) also
contribute to air pollution by reducing the
amount of ozone in the stratosphere. CFCs
come from a variety of places such as:
the burning of plastic foam items
leaking refrigerator equipment
spray cans
28. Natural Air Pollutants
Natural air pollutants can include:
Smoke from wild fires
Methane released from live stock
Volcanic eruptions
29. Consequences of Air Pollution
CO2 is a good transmitter of sunlight, but it
also partially restricts infrared radiation going
back from the earth into space, which
produces the so-called greenhouse effect that
prevents a drastic cooling of the Earth during
the night
Increasing the amount of CO2 in the
atmosphere reinforces this effect and is
expected to result in a warming of the Earth's
surface
CO2 in atmosphere GLOBAL WARMING
31. Acid Rain
When emissions of sulphur dioxide and nitric
oxide from stationary sources are transported
long distances by winds, they form secondary
pollutants such as nitrogen dioxide, nitric acid
vapor, and droplets containing solutions of
sulphuric acid, sulphate, and nitrate salts
These chemicals descend to the earth's
surface in wet form as rain or snow and in dry
form as a gases fog, dew, or solid particles, it is
known as acid rain or acid deposition
33. Smog
With the introduction of petroleum to replace coal
economies in countries, photochemical smog has
become predominant in many cities, which are
located in sunny, warm, and dry climates with many
motor vehicles
Worst episodes of photochemical smog tends to
occur in summer
35. Consequences continued
Sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, ozone and,
cause direct damage to leaves of crop plants
and trees when they enter leaf pores .
Chronic exposure of leaves and needles to
air pollutants can also break down the waxy
coating that helps prevent excessive water
loss and damage from diseases, pests,
drought and frost
36. Consequences continued
"In
the midwestern United States crop
losses of wheat, corn, soya beans, and
peanuts from damage by ozone and
acid deposition amount to about $5
billion a year".
38. Causes of Land Pollution
Four Main causes of land pollution
Construction
Agriculture
Domestic waste
Industrial Waste
39. Construction
Buildings take up resources and land,
the trees are chopped down and used
to make buildings
Takes away from places for animals
and other organisms to live
40. Agriculture
As
there are more and more people
inhabiting the earth, food is in higher
demand and so forests are chopped down
and turned into farmland.
In addition, herbicides, pesticides, artificial
fertilizers, animal manure (poop) are
washed into the soil and pollute it.
41. Domestic Waste
Tons of domestic waste is dumped every
day. Some waste from homes, offices and
industries can be recycled or burnt in
incinerators
There is still a lot of garbage, such as
refrigerators and washing machines that are
dumped in landfills simply because they
cannot be reused in anyway, nor recycled
42. Industrial Waste
Plastics factories, chemical plants, oil
refineries, nuclear waste disposal activity,
large animal farms, coal-fired power plants,
metals production factories and other heavy
industry all contribute to land pollution.
43. Consequences of Land
Pollution
Land pollution exterminates wild life
Acid rain kills trees and other plants
The vegetation that provides food and
shelter is destroyed
Land pollution can seriously disrupt the
balance of nature, and, in extreme cases,
can cause human fatalities
44. Consequences of Land
Pollution
Pesticides
can damage crops; kill
vegetation; and poison birds, animals, and
fish. Most pesticides kill or damage life
forms other than those intended. For
example, pesticides used in an effort to
control or destroy undesirable vegetation
and insects often destroy birds and small
animals. Some life forms develop immunity
to pesticides used to destroy them
45. WAYS TO STOP POLLUTION
Recycling newspaper, aluminum, and
others
Planting trees
Avoid purchasing products that contain
CFCs
Supporting much stricter clean air laws
and enforcement of international treaties
to reduce ozone depletion and slow
global warming
46. WAYS TO STOP POLLUTION
You can help to reduce global air pollution
and climate change by:
Driving a car that gets at least 35 mpg
Walking, biking, and using public
transportation
Using CFL bulbs over incandescent bulbs
Buying only energy efficient appliances
