Pollution as we know affects the environment.Land, air and water pollution are the major environmental hazards that poses great danger to both human and animal health. Pollution refers to introduction of elements to the ecosystem that can cause harm to the various components of the environment in one way or another. Let us look at each of these pollution methods in-depth. It may kill thousands or maybe even millions of them.The environment each year gets more hazardous for people to live in because of the dirt that we give to land,water and air. What you will see here is the effects of our carelessness to land, water and air.

Land- This is caused by release of harmful materials into the land. This waste includes domestic waste, municipal waste and non-biodegradable materials such as plastics. These materials make the land unsuitable for various economic activities such as agriculture.

Water-The pollution here is caused by factories and dumping f chemicals like oil,diesel etc.

Air- is a unique form of pollution that results from release of harmful gases into the atmospheres. The main sources of these gases include vehicles, industries and power plants. Examples of pollutant gases are carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and sulphur oxides. Once they accumulate in the atmosphere, they cause green house effect that is responsible for global warming and formation of acid rainfall.

The Environment today is really in a bad shape but its not to late to change just by applying the 3R's(reduce,reuse and recycle) we can help make a difference and we can make earth a loved and liveable place
