Nowadays we have many global problems. One of the most danger today is ecological!

Environmental problems that people prevent: Water problems Destruction of rainforests Rising sea levels Industrial pollutions Climate change Treats to wildlife

Air, water, and soil are necessary for existence of all living things. But polluted air can cause illness, and even death. Polluted water kills fish and other marine life. On polluted soil, food products can’t be grown. In addition environmental pollution spoils the natural beauty of our planet. Air, water, and soil are necessary for existence of all living things.

Automobiles are polluting the air but they provide fast transportation for the people. Plants and factories pollute the air and the water but they provide jobs for people and produce necessary goods. Fertilizers and pesticides are important for growing crops but they pollute soil.

Air pollution is a major problem effecting the entire world especially when we start burning forests which are the main source to oxygen (O2). Air pollution is very harmful it is destructive to living organs.

Mismanagement of the land will cause is becoming a big problem. The pollution it causes are soil erosion, degradation and salinisation are just a few other problems facing the state of our land. Globally we are losing a minimum of 15 million acres of prime agricultural land to overuse and mismanagement every year. Mismanagement of the land will cause is becoming a big problem.

Water covers 70% of the earth and only 3% of fresh water. 1% of fresh water and 2% of frozen fresh water.

Subsequently, we are slowly but surely harming our planet to the point where organisms are dying at a very alarming rate. In addition to innocent organisms dying off, our drinking water has become greatly affected as is our ability to use water for recreational purposes.

Light pollution obscures the stars in the night sky for city dwellers, interferes with astronomical observatories, and, like any other form of pollution, disrupts ecosystems and has adverse health effects.

Noise health effects are both health and behavioral in nature. Noise pollution can cause annoyance and aggression, hypertension, high stress levels, tinnitus, hearing loss, sleep disturbances, and other harmful effects. Noise can have a detrimental effect on animals, increasing the risk of death and interfering the use of the sounds in communication especially in relation to reproduction and in navigation.

Every year world industry pollutes the atmosphere with about 1000 million tons of dust and other harmful substances. Many cities suffer from smog. Vast forests are cut and burn in fire. Their disappearance upsets the oxygen balance. As a result some rare species of animals, birds, fish and plants disappear forever, a number of rivers and lakes dry up.

Environmental protection is of a universal concern. That is why serious measures to create a system of ecological security should be taken. Environmental protection is of a universal concern. That is why serious measures to create a system of ecological security should be taken.
