This document discusses 5 types of pollution: air, water, noise, land, and radioactive. It provides an introduction, causes, effects, and prevention methods for each type. Air pollution is caused by industries, automobiles, and fuels and affects human health, animals, and plants. Water pollution spreads diseases and is caused by industrial and sewage waste. Noise pollution causes hearing loss, stress, and sleep disturbances and comes from traffic, construction, and industries. Land pollution affects farming and groundwater and results from mining, garbage, and industrial waste. Radioactive pollution comes from nuclear power/weapons and uranium mining and increases cancer risks. Prevention methods include using cleaner energies, proper waste disposal, and limiting nuclear activities.
