AIR POLLUTION





 AIR POLLUTION

 
 
 
          AIR POLLUTION REFERS TO THE CONTAMINATION OF ATMOSPHERIC AIR DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF SOME SUBSTANCES AND GASES WHICH HAVE HARMFUL AND POISONOUS EFFECTS. DAY BY DAY THE FRESH AIR OF THE ENVIRONMENT IS GETTING POLLUTED BECAUSE OF THE MIXING OF PARTICULATES, BIOLOGICAL MOLECULES, AND OTHER HARMFUL MATERIALS. SUCH POLLUTED AIR IS CAUSING HEALTH PROBLEMS, DISEASES AND DEATH. AIR POLLUTION IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES WHICH REQUIRES TO BE NOTICED AND SOLVED BY THE EFFORTS OF ALL OF US.










           AIR POLLUTION IS A MOST SERIOUS PROBLEM OF THE CURRENT TIME ALL OVER THE WORLD ESPECIALLY IN LARGE CITIES BECAUSE OF THE HUGE LEVEL OF INDUSTRIALIZATION. THE RELEASE OF SUCH AIR POLLUTANTS IN HEAVY CONCENTRATIONS SUCH AS SMOG, PARTICULATES, SOLID MATERIALS ETC, ARE GETTING SETTLED OVER THE CITY, CAUSING AIR POLLUTION AND HEALTH HAZARDS TO THE PEOPLE. LOTS OF DIRTY WASTES PRODUCED BY PEOPLE ON DAILY BASIS ESPECIALLY IN THE BIG CITIES POLLUTING THE WHOLE ATMOSPHERIC AIR TO A GREAT EXTENT.










              THE RELEASE OF GASEOUS POLLUTANTS FROM BURNING FUELS OF MOTOR VEHICLES, INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES, BURNING OF GARBAGE, ETC ARE CONTRIBUTING TO THE AIR POLLUTION. SOME NATURAL POLLUTANTS LIKE POLLEN, DUST, SOIL PARTICLES, NATURAL GASES, ARE ALSO THE SOURCE OF AIR POLLUTION. AIR POLLUTION IS CONTINUOUSLY DAMAGING THE WHOLE ECOLOGICAL SYSTEM AND AFFECTING THE LIVES OF PLANTS AND ANIMALS AS WELL. IT HAS REACHED TO THE CRITICAL STAGE AND AFFECTING THE WHOLE ATMOSPHERE BY ALLOWING MORE HARMFUL RADIATIONS FROM THE SUN TO THE EARTH. AGAIN POLLUTED AIR ACTS AS A BETTER INSULATOR WHICH PREVENTS HEAT TO GET ESCAPED BACK IN TO THE SPACE.











          
       

             INDUSTRIALIZATION PROCESS RELEASES MANY HARMFUL GASES, PARTICLES, PAINT AND BATTERIES CONTAINS LEAD, CIGARETTES RELEASES CARBON MONOXIDE, TRANSPORT MEANS RELEASES CO2 AND OTHER TOXIC SUBSTANCES TO THE ATMOSPHERE. ALL THE POLLUTANTS ARE BEING IN CONTACT WITH ATMOSPHERE, DESTROYING THE OZONE LAYER AND CALLING HARMFUL RAYS OF THE SUN TO THE EARTH. IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE LEVEL OF AIR POLLUTION WE SHOULD NOT CUT TREES, USE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, AVOID SPRAY CANS, AND SO MANY ACTIVITIES IN THE FAVOR TO REDUCE THE EFFECTS OF AIR POLLUTION.

CONSERVATION OF NATURE

CONSERVATION OF NATURE                            NATURE HAS PROVIDED US NUMEROUS GIFTS SUCH AS AIR, WATER, LAND, SUNLIGHT, MINERALS, PLANTS AND ANIMALS. ALL THESE GIFTS OF NATURE MAKE OUR EARTH A PLACE WORTH LIVING. EXISTENCE ON EARTH WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE WITHOUT ANY OF THESE. NOW, WHILE THESE NATURAL RESOURCES ARE PRESENT ON EARTH IN PLENTY. UNFORTUNATELY, THE NECESSITY OF MOST OF THESE HAS INCREASED EXTREMELY OVER THE CENTURIES DUE TO GROWTH IN THE HUMAN POPULATION.          CONSERVATION OF NATURE MEANS THE PRESERVATION OF FOREST, LAND, WATER BODIES, AND MINERALS, FUELS, NATURAL GASES, ETC. AND TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL THESE CONTINUE TO BE AVAILABLE IN ABUNDANCE. THUS ALL THESE NATURAL RESOURCES MAKE LIFE WORTH LIVING ON EARTH. LIFE WOULD NOT BE IMAGINABLE...

SAVE WATER SAVE EARTH

SAVE WATER                 WATER  IS THE GIFT OF GOD TO HUMANITY. AT PRESENT SCARCITY OF USABLE WATER HAS BECOME A MATTER OF CONCERN ACROSS THE GLOBE. OUR PLANET EARTH IS THE ONLY PLANET IN THE UNIVERSE WHERE LIFE IS POSSIBLE. WITHOUT WATER, LIFE CAN NEVER BE IMAGINED. ALMOST 71% OF THE EARTH'S SURFACE IS WATER. BUT ONLY A LITTLE AMOUNT OF PURE DRINKING WATER IS PRESENT ON THE EARTH'S SURFACE. SO THERE IS A NECESSITY FOR SAVING WATER.      THE EARTH IS CALLED " THE BLUE PLANET " AS IT IS THE ONLY KNOWN PLANET IN THE UNIVERSE WHERE SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF USABLE WATER IS PRESENT. LIFE ON EARTH IS POSSIBLE ONLY BECAUSE OF THE PRESENCE OF WATER. THOUGH THERE IS A HUGE AMOUNT OF WATER CAN BE FOUND ON THE EARTH'S SURFACE LEVEL, VERY LITTLE AMOUNT OF CLEAN WATER AVAILABLE ON EARTH. SO IT HAS BECOME VERY NECESSARY TO  " SAVE WATER SAVE LIFE ". IT CL...

ACID RAIN

ACID RAIN                     ACID RAIN INCLUDES RAIN, SNOW, HAIL, FOG, OR DEW THAT IS HIGH IN ACID POLLUTANTS, ESPECIALLY SULPHURIC AND NITRIC ACID. ACID RAIN IS MAINLY CAUSED BY EMISSIONS OF SULPHUR DIOXIDE AND NITROGEN OXIDE FROM VARIOUS SOURCES. THEY REACT WITH THE WATER MOLECULES IN THE ATMOSPHERE TO PRODUCE ACIDS. THE PROBLEM OF ACID RAIN HAS NOT ONLY INCREASED WITH RAPID GROWTH IN POPULATION AND INDUSTRIALIZATION, BUT IT HAS ALSO BECOME MORE HARMFUL. THE USE OF THE TALL CHIMNEYS ON A FACTORY, SHIP, HAS CONTRIBUTED TO THE SPREAD OF ACID RAIN BY RELEASING GASES INTO THE ATMOSPHERE.                         THE MAIN NATURE CAUSING AGENTS FOR ACID RAIN ARE VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS. VOLCANOES EMIT A LARGE AMOUNT OF LAVA, PRODUCING HARMFUL GASES...
