Pollution
There are a lot of environmental problems now a day, mainly
because of pollution. It is the contamination of air, water and soil
by different materials that interfere with human health and
quality of life.
The emissions from industries and engines, including cars, are big
causes of air pollution and the simple things that we do at home,
like using aerosols, have a bad effect on the ozone layer, which
protects life on earth from ultraviolet radiation.
Water is also suffering from pollution by domestic municipal and
also industrial waste.
It is up to us to stop damaging the environment. We all should be
environmentally friendly.
