There are five main types of pollution: water, air, noise, soil, and pollution. Water pollution can be caused by industrial waste, sewage, mining, marine dumping, oil leaks, and fertilizers which can harm human health, ecosystems, and agriculture. Air pollution stems from both natural sources like dust and wildfires as well as human sources such as burning fossil fuels, vehicles, and industry. Noise pollution arises from transportation, construction, household activities, and events. Soil pollution is caused by agriculture, waste disposal, landfills, industry, and construction and can reduce soil fertility and quality of crops. Prevention methods include reducing pollution sources and increasing awareness.

3. DEFINITION OF POLLUTION
 When Harmful Substances Contaminate the
Environment, it is Called Pollution.
 Pollution refers tothe verybad condition of
environment in terms of quantity and quality.

>Agriculture
>Disruption of food-chain

9. Prevention of water pollution
.
Never throw rubbish away anyhow. It is high
time to prevent water pollution at any cost.
But only govt. Will not be abele to check this
problem. Public awareness should be raised.
We should make all out effort to prevent
water pollution for healthier and happier life.

11. Air Pollution
ANY VISIBLE OR INVISIBLE PARTICLE OR GAS
FOUND IN THE AIR THAT IS NOT PART OF THE
ORIGINAL, NORMAL COMPOSITION.

12. Causes of Air Pollution
 Natural Causes
– Dust.
– Smoke from wildfire.
 Man made Causes
– Burning of Fossil Fuels
 Vehicles.
 Road construction.
 Building construction.
– Agricultural activities
– Exhaust from factories and industries
 Bad smoke.
 Waste.
 Liquid chemicals.
– Indoor air pollution
 Household cleaning products.
 painting supplies emit toxic chemicals.
 Smoking .

13. 5 Major Pollutants
1. Carbon Monoxide
2. Sulfur Dioxide
3. Nitrogen Dioxide
4. Particulate Matter
5. Ground Level Ozone

14. Effects of Air pollution
• Human Effects
– Diseases...
• Environmental Effect
– Global warming
– Acid Rain
– Eutrophication
– Effect on Wildlife
– Depletion of Ozone layer

15. Solutions for Air Pollution
Use public mode of transportation
Understand the concept of Reduce, Reuse and Recycle
Emphasis on clean energy resources
Ride your bike
Tell your friends and family about pollution
Join a group to stop pollution
Switch off lights, fan, heat, etc. when you leave the room
More smoke produces factory can use filter which can
able to remove bad element from smoke. eg … brick
making factory.

17. Noise pollution
Noise is unwanted sound .When there is lot of noise in the
environment, it is termed as noise pollution.

18. Causes of Noise Pollution
1. Transportation
2. Construction Activities
3. Household Chores
4. Social Events
5. Defense exercise

19. Effects of Noise pollution
 Hearing Problems
 Health Issues
 Annoyance
 Human performance
 Nervous system
 Sleeplessness

21. SOLUTION
Turn off electronics
Sound proof space
Earplugs

23. Soil pollution is defined as the build-up in
soils of determined toxic
compunds,chemicals,salts,radioactive,mate
rials,or disease causing agents, Which have
adverse effects on plant growth and animal
health.

24. Main causes of soil pollution
• Agriculture activities
• Waste Disposal
• Overcrowded landfills
• Industrialization
• Construction activities
• Nuclear waste
• Sewage treatment
• Construction activities

25. Soil Pollution and Its Effects :
Soil pollution may affect all of us as well
as plants and animals. However, children are usually more
susceptible. This is because kids are more sensitive to various
pollutants and they may come in close contact with soil by
regularly playing in the ground for example.
Effect on Health of Humans:
 Crops and plants grown on polluted soil absorb much of the
pollution and then pass these on to us. This could explain
the sudden surge in small and terminal illnesses.
 Long term exposure to such soil can affect the genetic
make-up of the body, causing congenital illnesses and
chronic health problems that cannot be cured easily.

26. Toxic Dust:
The emission of toxic and foul gases from landfills pollutes
the environment and causes serious effects on health of some
people. The unpleasant smell causes inconvenience to other
people.
Changes in Soil Structure:
The death of many soil organisms in the soil can
lead to alteration in soil structure. Apart from that, it could also
force other predators to move to other places in search of food.

27. Decreased Soil Fertility:
The toxic chemicals present in the soil can decrease soil
fertility and therefore decrease in the soil yield. The
contaminated soil is then used to produce fruits and vegetables
which lacks quality nutrients and may contain some poisonous
substance to cause serious health problems in people
consuming them.
Methods to control soil pollution:
There are many factors which control the soil pollution.
It includes the limited use of fertilizers and pesticides.
The biological control method must be known and
implemented.

28.  The grazing must be controlled and forest management should be
done properly.
 The a forestation and reforestation must be done. In areas of wind
erosion wind breaks and shields must be used.
 The soil binding grass must be planted and the large trees must be
placed along the banks.
 The industrial wastes must be dumped in the low lying areas.
 There is a definite technique of cropping which does not allow the
weeds to settle on the fields. The mining ways must be improved
along with their transportation. The area must not be left barren and
dry.

29. How soil pollution and soil erosion could be
prevented :
 proper planting of plants with extensive root systems helps to prevent
soil erosion as the roots hold the soil in place.
 Plants that break down and/or sequester contaminates can be used to
prevent the spread of pollution.
 Reforming farming practices to reduce soil erosion and Industry to
reduce the quantity of pollutants can also be effective at preventing
soil erosion and pollution from occurring.
 Low till farming and green chemistry are two examples of
technologies that can reduce soil erosion and pollution in that order.
