Types of Pollution Land Pollution Environmental contamination with man- made waste on land. The main human contributor to pollution are landfills. Approximately half of our rubbish is put into landfill.

Water Pollution E nvironmental contamination with man-made waste into water. The source of this waste could be raw sewage, chemicals, rubbish, or fertilizer. Water pollution has severe human consequences, since less than 3% of the Earth contains water that is potable or safe for drinking. Also, water is so important for human survival because we cannot live without it.

Air pollution Environmental contamination with man made waste into the air. Many times factories release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), methane,and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases contribute to a phenomenon called the greenhouse Effect or more simply put, global warming. These greenhouse gases trap heat within the atmosphere, thus raising the temperature of the Earth.

As you can see from the pictures and diagrams that pollution is everywhere. Pollution is a global crisis. It is not an isolated occurrence, but affects every person on Earth. We must become more conscientious and aware that we are not just British citizens but global citizens that must take care of the world in which we live!

Creation in Reverse And the smog and the radio-active material fell on the seas And the dry land and contaminated every herb yielding Seed and every fruit tree yielding fruit And man said: ‘It is not very good but we cannot turn the clock back’ This was the fifth day before the end

And by his work, man created great deserts and changed Climate conditions so that winds swept dust of the Earth Skywards to mingle with the smog which blotted out the Sun by day and moon by night So that day and night became the same. And man saw the work of his hand and said ‘Our conquest of nature is nearly complete.’ And this was the forth day before the end.

The third day before the end man said, ‘Let us dump our industrial effluents, raw sewage and garbage into the streams and waterways and seas.’ And it was so. The waters upon the Earth became so foul that all life in the waters died.
