Acid Rain
Causes- Sulfur dioxide and Nitrogen
Oxides.Sulfur dioxide- Power plants that use coal
as their flue.
Nitrogen Oxides- Automobiles, Fires,volcanic eruption, bacterialdecomposition and Lightening.

Effects-1. Bodies of water, such as lakes and rivers, see many of
their inhabitants die off due to rising acidity levels.
2. Acidic water also ruins plant nutrients, hurting plants
ability to survive.
3. Many ecosystem are affected by acid rain.
Solution-
1. They can use coal with low sulfur content.
2. they can remove the sulfur from smoke their plants
release.
3. Tradable Emission Permit.

Air Pollution
Causes- Nitrogen Oxides, Carbon
Monoxide and organic CompoundNatural Causes- Forest fires, volcanic
eruption, wind erosion, pollen dispersal,
evaporation of organic compound andradioactivity.

Effects
1. Heart and lung disorders.
2. They can kill plant and trees by destroying their leaves.
3. Can kill animals especially fish.
Solutions-There are main two types of pollutioncontrol.
1. Input control- its involve preventing a problem before
it occur or at lest limiting the effects the process willproduce.
2. Output Control- this usually means cleaning up an
area that has been damaged by pollution.

Global Warming
Causes-include overpopulation, Deforestation,
Ozone depletion, garbage dumping, and manyothers.
Effects-
1. The climate change.
2. Polar icecaps would melt.3. The rise in sea levels.
4. Flooding would occur.
5. Islands would disappear.

Solution1. Raising fossil fuel price.
2. Taxing emissions.3. Encouraging people to take environmentally
friendly action through such activities as plantingtrees will all help.
4. Family planning services.

Hazardous Waste-Causes- Individuals and Industrialization.
Effects- Human Health and Environment.Solution- Controlled through input and output
controls.
1. Landfill.

Ozone Depletion
Causes- Chorofluorocarbons- used in refrigerator, homeinsulation, plastic foam, throwaway food containers.
Effects-1. More ultraviolet light from the sun can reach the earth.
2. It can causes skin cancer.
3. Cataracts can also be expected.4. Disrupting the food chain.
5. Climate could be affected.
6. Ocean will be hit hard as well.

Smog
Causes- carbon monoxide, dirt, soot, dust
and ozone.Automobile, fires, waste treatment, oil
production, industrial solvents, paints and
coatings, gas station.
-

Effects- Human body- lung cancer, chestpain, coughing and throat irritation,
pneumonia, asthma attacks. Environment effect- harming ecosystem.
Soybeans, wheat, tomatoes, peanutsand cotton are all subject to infectionwhen exposed to smog.
-

Solution-Many communities and their governmentare attempting to restrict usage of dangerousproduct such as barbecues, house paint, and
kitchen cleaners.They decide to require carpooling, offer free bus
services and create many environmentally- friendlyregulation for homes.
To find less harmful alternatives for many smogproducing processes.

Water Pollution
Causes- Sewage, sludge, garbage and even toxic
pollutants are all dumped into the water.Effects-
It kills life that inhabits water based ecosystem.
Pollution disrupts the natural food chain as well.
-

Solution-
1. Being carry out in an effort to clean up
the water.2. To reduce the amount of chemicals
they dump into water.
3. Environmental groups are participatingin cleanup project.

Over Population
Causes-1.
Decline in the death rate2. Rise in the birth rate
3. Migration
4. Lack of education
Effects-Air, water, land pollution, ozone depleting, global
warming, dying forest, species extinction, meltingglaciers, rising sea levels, climate change andmore rapid spread of diseases.
