The document provides an overview of environmental issues that have emerged due to industrialization, urbanization, and agricultural advancement. It discusses how the industrial revolution led to immense fossil fuel consumption and air/water pollution. Urbanization complemented industrial development but also caused habitat destruction and modification. Agricultural progress through the green revolution introduced chemicals that degraded soils and contributed to deforestation, desertification, and climate change. Rising population growth, greenhouse gas emissions, and pollution are exacerbating issues like global warming, ozone layer depletion, and acid rain. The document lists key environmental problems and their negative impacts on ecosystems and economies.
4. INDUSTRIALISATION
• It was the industrial revolution took place during the period of 1760-1840
just because of one fossil fuel COAL.
• It was the time when the labour intensive products were started getting
produced through the use of machinery which completely changed the face
of industries as we see them today.
• It took place first in the Great Britain and then it was took to the North
America(USA).
• Huge factories were being build around the two countries, which affect the
world both positively and negatively actually had more negative affect.
• Its main affect which was noticed that the fossil fuels were being consumed
in the immense quantity.
• Around 1960, environmental degradation was moving towards its peak.
6. URBANIZATION
• It implies better facilities, development,
economy, health benefits, education,
aspiration of life, etc.
• It started emerging in late 18th century
along with industrial development and
was complementing it.

8. AGRICULTURAL PROGRESS
• It is marked with GREEN REVOLUTION.
• Agro-Advancement which refers to the set of research and
development of technology transfer occurred between 1930-1960
that increased the agricultural production worldwide.
• The mean reason behind it was the global food security.

10. POPULATION GROWTH
• According to UN Population Estimate and Projection, the world
population is expected to reach :
• China and India constituted 37% of world’s 7.2 billion population in
2013.
• Only Germany had the -0.1% population growth.
3.7 billion
In 1970
6.08 billion
In 2000

13. • POLLUTION
• Accumulation of undesirable matter due to unknown and known activities in
the environment
• When the rate of flow of these accumulation exceeds the capacity of
ecosystem to absorb it , it effect the environment.
• All the undesirable agents which cause environmental pollution are called
pollutants.
• ACID RAIN
• Rain water should be neutral in Ph level, i.e., nor acidic no alkaline.
• Dissolution of Carbon Dioxide and many other acidic oxides in the rain water
leads to the formation of Sulphurous Acid , Sulphuric Acid and Nitric Acid.
14. Ozone Layer Depletion
• Thin upper layer of the atmosphere in the stratosphere about 20km
above the surface , made up of O3.
• it absorbs harmful UV radiations
• Without ozone layer, the biological furnace of the biosphere will
change into the blast furnace.
Chemicals released in the atmosphere like:
Chlorofluorocarbons
Carbon tetra Chloride
Methyl chloroforms
Chlorofluoromethane
Halon
Methyl Bromide
Released through
Refrigeration
Air conditioning
Extinguisher
Solvent in Industries
Blowing Agents in plastic
Industries
Solvent in plant industries
Ozone hole
Introduction of these
chemicals into the
stratosphere, consume
ozone, reducing it
concentration and making it
very thin.
