Water Pollutiondisposal of substances into water- lakes,
rivers, oceans
•Sewage•wastes from homes & factories
•animal wastes from farms•fertilizers

Toxic WastesToxic (poisonous) wastes can cause
environmental problems because when they are disposed of they can collect in
the cells of organisms.
Mercury is a toxin that can be found in fish

Biological MagnificationThe concentration of toxic substances
(DDT) as you move through the food chain (plants are eaten by herbivores, which are
eaten by carnivores, etc…..) increases.

Thermal (Heat)Some power plants & industries use water to cool their machines. The warmed water is then released into a river or lake. Why is this a problem?
The warm water cannot hold as much oxygen as cold water and some species may
suffocate.

Solid Waste
A new increased demand for disposable
products has led to solid waste problems.
![Page 7: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
How can we dispose of solid waste?
1. Recycle
2. Landfill
3. Incinerate (burn)

Air PollutionThe burning of fossil fuels that were formed from the
remains of organisms millions of years ago
contribute to air pollution.
![Page 9: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Acid Rain• Due to burning of
fossil fuels• SO2 (sulfuric Acid),
NO2 (Nitric Acid)• Rain mixes with gases
in air• Destruction of trees
and destruction of pond ecosystems
Makes them acidic

Smog
results whencertain pollutants react
with sunlight.

Global WarmingWhat is Carbon Dioxide
(CO2)?
• A greenhouse gas that is produced from burning fossil fuels
• It is also a product of cellular respiration (we breathe it out)
![Page 12: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Greenhouse gasesGases that trap heat in the atmosphere
What are some other greenhouse gases?
CO2, methane, water vapor

Carbon Dioxide in the Atmosphere:
The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has been increasing.
![Page 14: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How do we contribute to the increase of carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere?1)Burning of fossil fuels2)Deforestation3)Cow flatulence (methane)
![Page 15: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
How does Deforestation cause an increase in atmospheric
carbon dioxide?
+CO2
Glucose
O2
H2O
Increased CO2 in the atmosphere
Less trees = less photosynthesis = more CO2 and less O2

What does increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
cause?
![Page 17: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
heat that would normally radiate back into space gets trapped.
This increase in earth’s temperature is called:
Global Warming
![Page 18: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What are some of the detrimental effects of Global Warming?
Melting of the polar ice caps, leading to a rise in sea level and flooding in many
coastal areas.

Ozone Layer:
Protects us from UV radiation
![Page 21: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What are chlorofluorocarbons (CFC’s)?
• Aerosol cans
•Refrigerator Emissions
• Air Conditioner Emissions
Chemicals that destroy the ozone
layer
![Page 22: AIM: How does pollution affect the environment? Do Now: Quiz HW: Test Friday- ecology and human impact](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649f425503460f94c6159b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What is the problem with using CFC’s?
•They create holes in the ozone layer around earth.
•This will allow increased UV radiation to reach the Earth

How can UV radiation affect living things?
•Mutations
•Cancer
