Environmental
pollution is the biggest menace to the human race on this planet today. It
means adding impurity to environment. The environment consists of earth, water,
air, plants and animals. If we pollute them, then the existence of man and
nature will be hampered.
It is true
that trees are being cut down rapidly. Our earth is becoming warmer. If
pollution continues, the day is not far when our earth will be a boiling pan
and become a desert. Or it will be covered with sea water causing destruction
of mankind.
Pure air
is always needed for inhaling. If we take pure air, our health improves. On the
other hand impure air causes diseases and impairs our health and causes our
death. Smoke pollutes the air. It is the root of air pollution. The smoke which
is discharged from industries, automobiles and kitchens is the mixture of
carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane etc. These are all poisonous gases.
These cause lung-cancer, tuberculosis etc. which take a heavy toll of life.
