This document discusses different types of pollution including air, water, land, and noise pollution. It defines each type of pollution, describes their causes and effects, and provides some solutions or ways to reduce pollution. Specifically, it states that air pollution is caused by things like transportation, burning fossil fuels, and construction activities. Water pollution stems from sewage, dumping, industrial waste, and oil. Land pollution results from deforestation, mining, and improper waste disposal. Noise pollution mainly originates from industrialization, transportation, and construction. The document outlines health and environmental impacts of each type and recommends actions like composting waste, driving less, planting trees, and installing noise barriers.

3. WHAT IS POLLUTION?
Pollution may defined as, “the unfavorable alteration of
our surrounding”. It changes the quality of air, water and
land which interferes with the health of humans and other
life on earth.
Pollution are of different kinds depending on the nature of
pollutant.

4. WHAT IS POLLUTANTS?
Any substance which causes pollution is called a pollutant.
A Pollutant has also been defined as “any solid, liquid or gaseous
substance present in such concentration as may be or tend to be
injurious to the environment.”

5. TYPES OF POLLUTION
There are many types of
pollution, but we going to
describe four basic types of
pollution.

6. AIR POLLUTION
Air pollution is the introduction of particulates, biological
molecules, or other harmful materials into Earths atmosphere,
causing diseases, death to humans, damage to other living
organisms such as animals and food crops, or the natural or built
environment.

7. CAUSES OF AIR POLLUTION
 Air pollution mainly cause by transportation, fuel combustion in stationary
sources, burning of fossil fuels like coal, wood, dry gas, and construction activity.
 construction activity, bad roads and burning fossil fuels are responsible for dust
or air pollution.
 Residential and commercial activities also contribute in air pollution.

8. EFFECTS OF AIR POLLUTION
 air pollution affects the body's respiratory system and the
cardiovascular system. Though the individual reactions to air
pollutants depend on the type of pollutant a person is exposed to, the
degree of exposure.
 Air pollution may cause long term health problems.
 The health effects caused by air pollutants may range from
biochemical and physiological changes like difficulty in breathing,
wheezing, coughing and aggravation of existing respiratory and
cardiac conditions.

9. MEDICINE TO AIR POLLUTION
• Compost your yard waste instead of burning it. Outdoor burning is not
advisable, as it pollutes air. Breathing this smoke is bad for you, your family
and your neighbors. Plus, you can use the compost in your garden.
• Drive less. Walking, bicycling, riding the bus, or working from home can save
you money as well as reducing air pollution.

10. WATER POLLUTION
Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies. This form of environmental
degradation occurs when pollutants are directly or indirectly discharged into
water bodies without organisms such as animals and food crops, or the natural
or built environment.

11. CAUSES OF WATER POLLUTION
1. Sewage
2. Dumping solid
3. Industrial waste
4. Oil Pollution
5. Burning fossil fuels

12. EFFECTS OF WATER POLLUTION
1. Death of aquatic (water) animals
2. Disruption of food-chains

13. MEDICINE TO WATER POLLUTION
 Waste food material, paper, decaying vegetables and plastics
should not be thrown into open drains.
 Oil slicks should be skimmed off from the surface with suction
device. Sawdust may be spread over oil slicks to absorb the oil
components.
 Reduce the use of different chemical substance that we use to
clean our houses. because later this water included in clean
water.

14. LAND POLLUTION
Land pollution is the degradation of earth land surface
often cause by human activities and their misuse of land
resources.it occur when waste is not dispose properly.
Haphazard disposal of urban and industrial waste,
exploitation of minerals, and improper use of soil by
inadequate agricultural practices are a few factor.

15. CAUSES OF LAND POLLUTION
1. activities
2. Deforestation
3. Mining activities
4. Sewage treatment

16. EFFECTS OF LAND POLLUTION
Land pollution is the imbalance of nature, resulting from the harm caused to the
wildlife.
Solid waste poses a health threat to people.
Pesticides which cause land pollution can damage crops, kill vegetation, and
poison birds, animals, and fish.
it effects the human respiratory system.
It can effect human skin.
Cause various kinds of cancers.

17. MEDICINE TO LAND POLLUTION
 Intensive cropping and use of proper drainage canals.
 Terracing on the sloping fields. This retards the speed of the flowing water.
 Planting trees and sowing grasses.
 Extensive afforestation practices to be carried out.

18. NOISE POLLUTION
Noise pollution or noise disturbance is the disturbing or excessive noise that may
harm the activity or balance of human or animal life. The source of most outdoor
noise worldwide is mainly caused by machines and transportation system ,motor
vehicles, aircraft and trains.

19. CAUSES OF NOISE POLLUTION
 Industrialization
 Poor Urban Planning
 Transportation
 Construction Activities

20. EFFECTS OF NOISE POLLUTION
 The immediate and acute effect of noise pollution to a person, over a period of time, is
impairment of hearing.
 Prolonged exposure to impulsive noise to a person will damage their eardrum, which
may result in a permanent hearing impairment.
 Noise pollution can damage physiological and psychological health.
 It can also cause memory loss, severe depression, and panic attacks.
 High blood pressure, stress related illness, sleep disruption, hearing loss, and
productivity loss are the problems related to noise pollution.

21. MEDICINE TO NOISE POLLUTION
 Reducing noise pollution by muffling the sounds at the source is one of the
best methods in industry and for urban living.
 Creation of green cover adjacent to municipal roads and in mines is the way to
mitigate noise pollution.
 High way noise pollution can be mitigated by constructing noise barriers.
