Air Pollution

Air-related Environmental problems

Made by Meet 5

Air pollution is the most dangerous form of pollution.

Air pollution is the mixture of solid particles and gases in the air.

Car emissions , chemical from factories , dust etc . are the main particles that are suspended in the air and cause pollution. These suspended particles are called pollutants.

Even smoke from burning leaves and cigarettes are harmful to the environment.

Global Warming

Made by Meet 7

Global warming is the increase in earth’s average temperature due to increased trapping of infrared radiations by green house gases.

It is a result of increased pollutions and other phenomenon that increases the amount of green house gases in the atmosphere.

As a result the glaciers are melting and the sea level is accelerating , large wildfires are growing and severe droughts are occurring.

Water Pollution

WATER-RELATED ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

Made by Meet 9

Water pollution is caused due to industrial waste released into lakes , ponds and other water bodies.

Humans pollute water with large scale disposal of garbage , flowers , ashes and other household waste.

Acid rain further adds to the water pollution. Water pollution can result in depletion of

dissolved oxygen in water bodies. Water pollution can also occur as a result of

soil pollution.

Acid rain

Made by Meet 11

Acid rain is a rain that is unusually acidic that can have harmful effects on plants , animals and infrastructure.

Acid rain is a result of air pollution. When any type of fuel is burnt, lots of

different chemicals are produced. Some of these gases (especially nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxide) react with the tiny droplets of water in clouds to form sulphuric and nitric acids. The rain from these clouds then falls as very weak acid - which is why it is known as "acid rain".

Soil Pollution

LAND-RELATED ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

Made by Meet 13

Soil pollution is a result of acid rain , polluted water , fertilizers , disposal of waste , mining activities etc..

Soil contamination occurs when chemicals are released to the soil in the form of fertilizers , pesticides ,etc..

Soil pollution can effect the growth of crops and plants in the soil.

The toxic chemicals present in the soil can decrease the soil fertility.

Its time to join hands across the globe to protect preserve and save the mother earth environment and we grow more and more trees our surrounding area.

Carbon footprint is the total amount of green house gases produced by an organization or a person , in other words reduce pollution , usage of vehicles , factories ,etc..

What is environmental issues solution ?

Made by Meet 16

PLANT TREES !!! AND STOP DEFORESTATION!!! , it is the biggest solution for all the environmental issues.

Try combining driving with alternative modes of transportation.

Understand the concept of ‘Reduce , Reuse and Recycle’.

Use energy efficient devices.

Made by Meet 17

Reduce the use of chemicals like fertilizers , pesticides in agricultural activities.

Avoid using non biodegradable products for example plastic.

Finally CONSERVE ENERGY !!! CONSERVE WATER !! RECYCLE THE WASTE AND USE RENEWABLE RESOURCES

Made by Meet 18

Reduce:- Use less resource means to use less water, use less plastic or paper etc..

Ways to Reduce:- Use the front and back of your paper Choose products that are returnable,

reusable, or refillable over single-use items. Bring reusable bags and containers when

shopping, traveling, or packing lunches 

Reduce, Reuse and RecycleSaving Nonrenewable resources

Made by Meet 19

Reuse:- To use the resource more than once to conserve.

Ways to Reuse:- Instead of throwing some trash away,

people can find new ways to reuse it. When you reuse it saves Energy, time and

fuel. Build a Compost Bin You

can reuse many waste items, such as eggshells and old tea bags, using a compost bin.

Made by Meet 20

Recycle:- collecting resource, processing it into new products.

Ways to Recycle :- Buy remanufactured ink. Buy recycled paper and print on both sides. Recycle your outdated technology.  Purchase rewritable CDs and DVDs so that

you can reuse them from project to project. Buy rechargeable batteries.
