We all live on planet earth, which is the only planet known to have an environment, where air and water are two basic things that sustain life. The biosphere in which living beings have their sustenance has oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, argon and water vapor. All these are well balanced to ensure and help a healthy growth of life in the animal world.

Sources and Causes

· Industrial activities
· Dumping solid waste
· Vehicles Smoke
· Rapid urbanization and industrialization
· Combustion of fossil fuels
· Agricultural waste

Effect

Environmental pollution has negatively affected the life of both human-beings and animals.
· The water we drink the vegetables are all contaminated to-day. As a result of this contamination a number of incurable diseases. Environmental pollution affects water sources which mean that there is less fresh water available for drinking, washing, cooking and irrigating crops.
· The factories are mostly built in populated areas and the smoke-emitting vehicles ply through the congested areas. Besides causing immense disturbances, there are increasing case of pulmonary tuberculosis and thrombosis and various sorts of brain and heart complications.
· Air-pollution may cause severe lungs-diseases, asthma, brain-disorder diseases, etc.
· Soil-pollution may have negative effect on farm output ratio. It can also contaminate the ground water.
· Noise-pollution have negative effects on hearing or auditory sense organs. It can also cause deafness, tiredness, and mental losses. The heat generated by industries and vehicles causes thermal pollution by raising the environmental temperature of the nearby areas.

Solution

· The Government can at least see that future factories are set up at a distant place, an industrial complex far away from the township.
· Researcher may find out how to avoid harmful smoke from running vehicles.
· Discharge of Factory wastes in rivers should be banned so as to make the river-water free from pollution.
· Recycle the sewage or in all events it can be disposed of in such a way as to prevent it from polluting the environment.
· Reducing the amount that we buy, reusing and repairing items wherever possible, and recycling as much as we can will all help to reduce the amount of waste dumped in the environment. When we do need to throw away waste we should do so responsibly.
· Organic farming could be one solution for reducing environmental pollution levels.
