This document defines and discusses five types of pollution: air, water, land, noise, and general pollution. For each type of pollution, it provides an introduction, causes, effects, and methods of prevention. The key types of pollution covered are air (caused by industries and vehicles, harming human health), water (caused by industrial and organic waste, causing diseases), land (caused by waste, construction, and industry, impacting agriculture and biodiversity), and noise (caused by traffic, aircraft, and industry, causing health issues). Prevention methods include reducing vehicle and industrial emissions, proper waste disposal, noise regulations, and sustainable land and resource use.

Social media in government - presentation to NSW HealthCraig Thomler
This presentation provides an overview of how governments in Australia are using social media, risks they may face and how to address these with structured processes and guidelines. It finishes with some quick case studies of excellent use of social media by the public sector.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.
How we are polluting environment
• Look at any ecosystem and there could be multiple forms of contamination—
streams full of toxic chemicals from industrial processes, rivers overloaded
with nutrients from farms, trash blowing away from landfills, city skies
covered in smog. Even landscapes that appear pristine can experience the
effects of pollution sources located hundreds or thousands of miles away.
• Pollution may muddy landscapes, poison soils and waterways, or kill plants
and animals. Humans are also regularly harmed by pollution. Long-term
exposure to air pollution, for example, can lead to chronic respiratory disease,
lung cancer and other diseases. Toxic chemicals that accumulate in top
predators can make some species unsafe to eat. More than one billion people
lack access to clean water and 2.4 billion don’t have adequate sanitation,
putting them at risk of contracting deadly diseases.

4. Definition of pollution
Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into a
natural environment that causes
instability,disorder,harm or discomfort to the
ecosystem .
Pollution can take the form of chemical
substances or energy such as noise, heat or light.
5.
6. What is air pollution
Air pollution is the introduction of
chemicals, particulate matter, or
biological materials that cause harm
or discomfort to humans or other
living organisms, or damages the
natural environment into the
atmosphere. The atmosphere is a
complex dynamic natural gaseous
system that is essential to support
life on planet Earth. Stratospheric
ozone depletion due to air pollution
has long been recognized as a
threat to human health as well as
to the Earth's ecosystems.
7. CAUSES OF AIR POLLUTION
- Industries.
-Automobiles and Domestic fuels
-High Proportion of undesirable
gases,such as sulphur dioxide and
carbon monoxide
8. EFFECT OF AIR POLLUTION
Air Pollution affects???
Human health
Animals
Plants
The atmosphere as a whole
9. How to prevent air pollution
Carpool
Walk or ride a bicycle
Connect your outdoor
lights to a timer or use
solar lighting.
Wash clothes with warm
or cold water instead of
hot.
Plant trees etc…….
11. What is water pollution
Water pollution is the
contamination of water bodies. E.g.
lakes, rivers, oceans, groundwater.
Water pollution affects plants and
organisms living in these bodies of
water; and, in almost all cases the
effect is damaging either to
individual species and populations,
but also to the natural biological
communities. Water pollution
occurs when pollutants are
discharged directly or indirectly
into water bodies without adequate
treatment to remove harmful
compounds.
12. Causes of Water Pollution
About 40% of Deaths
worldwide are caused by
Water Pollution.
Water Pollution is Caused
by organsic and inorganic
industrial wastes and
affluents discharged into
rivers.
13. Effects of Water Pollution
Diseases like Cholera
Malaria
Typhoid (spread during the rainy season )
Aquatic life gets destroyed
14. How to prevent water pollution
Rivers should not be used
for washing clothes or
bathing animals in.
Dams should be created.
In sacred rivers like
Ganga dead bodies
shouldn’t be thrown.
15.
16. NOISE POLLUTION
Noise pollution is displeasing
human, animal or machine-created
sound that disrupts the activity
or balance of human or animal life.
The word noise comes from the
Latin word nausea meaning
seasickness. The source of most
outdoor noise worldwide is
transportation systems, including
motor vehicle noise, aircraft
noise and rail noise. Poor urban
planning may give rise to noise
pollution, since side-by-side
industrial and residential
buildings can result in noise
pollution in the residential area.
17. Causes of Noise Pollution
Traffic Noise
Air craft Noise
Noise from construction
and civil engineering
works.
Noise from the
Industries.
Noise from other sources.
18. Effects of Noise Pollution
Hearing Loss
High Blood Pressure
Stress
Sleep Disturbance
Color Blindness
19. How to prevent noise pollution
The government should
ensure the new machines
are noise proof.
Airports should be away
from residential areas.
‘No horn’ boards should
be put on/near school
areas.
We should talk less and
work more.
20.
21. LAND POLLUTION
Land pollution is the degradation
of Earth's land surfaces often
caused by human activities and
their misuse of land resources.
It occurs when waste is not
disposed properly. Health hazard
disposal of urban and industrial
wastes, exploitation of minerals,
and improper use of soil by
inadequate agricultural practices
are a few factors. Urbanization
and industrialization are major
causes of land pollution.
22. Causes of Land Pollution
Throwing garbage
Construction
Waste
Industrial waste
Mining
23. Effects of Land Pollution
Agriculture
Littering
Climate
Biodiversity
24. How to prevent land pollution
More and more land should
be brought under farming.
Trees should be planted
everywhere.
Waste matter should be
disposed immediately
Avoid drilling lands for
underground water.
Avoid using fertilizer and
pesticides for farming.
