Good day to you all and how are we doing today. I welcome you all to the new weekly prompt of the scifimultiverse community and in the same hand i want to really appreciate the person that handles the weekly prompt your topics are always wonderful and have many lessons to gain from, your really trying.
So back to the prompt of this week which says pollution : Pollution is the release of harmful substances in the environment which causes damage to the environment and it's occupants such as human beings and other animals, though pollution affects both living and non living things because some people believes pollution only affects living organisms no it affects both the living and non living things when it affects non living things that's when it causes disaster to the living things.
Pollution has been one of the major problems and challenges the planet is really facing and it has really caused a lot of disaster which have affected everything in the planet. Pollution has types and i will like to discuss some of the types below . Types of pollution includes the following:
Noise pollution: When we talk about noise pollution it simply means when there is excessive noise in the environment Thereby making the environment not to be conducive for the things living in it. It can cause hearing impairment especially those people that work in industries that generate noise without wearing their personal protective equipment, personal protective equipment is very important in industries and it supposed to be made available for the workers to avoid putting them into old age life illness like the hearing impairment (the person will be unable to hear well except with hearing aid).
We also have other major types and sources of pollution and this includes the following; Water pollution,air pollution and soil/ land pollution. The planet have really suffered a lot environmental disaster due to pollution under this three categories and it has caused a lot of damages to the three environments (water,air and land).
Water pollution: Water pollution is the release of harmful substances in to the water bodies which have really caused alot of damages to the water environment. Water pollution has really been a big challenge to the water habitat because it has caused a lot of damages to it leading to reduced in oxygen content in the water bodies causing the death of aquatic animals. Causes of water pollution includes dumping of waste in the water bodies and The release of industrial materials in the water bodies.
Air pollution: It also involves the release of harmful substances but in the atmosphere causing damages to it. This kind of pollution has really affected the atmosphere causing alot of harm to it ,such as industrial actions which is the major cause of it. Industrial action has really caused a lot of pollution that has affected so many things, example is ozone layer depletion. Industrial action causing the release of gas into the atmosphere has caused a very big damage to the ozone leading to it's break down reducing it's protection from ultraviolet radiation.
Soil/land pollution: Land pollution is release of harmful substances in to the soil thereby causing damage to it . This damages affects agricultural activities and also play a role in some other things like causing displacement (where people leave their homes and location to other places due to disaster such as oil spillage). Causes of land pollution are Release of waste into the land such as non degradable waste. Release of chemicals into the land . Oil spillage and so many other things.
Pollution has been a very big challenge that is facing everyone in one way or another so let's handle our waste well so as to protect ourselves and prevent damages to our environment.
