Pollution

Introduction

Pollution has been at an alarming rate, even the federal government is trying to stop it because of how bad it is, we all experience the after effects of not to good refining process of crued oil which turns the floors of our houses black, it might not be too visible but if you check you would see it. So I will like for us to know more about pollution so we can reduce the ones we can and leave the others for GOD to help.

Body of text

Pollution can be defined according to vocapture dictionary as

Physical contamination, now especially the contamination of the environment by harmful substances, or by disruptive levels of noise, light etc.
Pollution occurs in different stages which are 3 in number and these are;

1 Air/atmospheric pollution

Air pollution is mostly caused by
• By substance produced when refining crued oil into different meaningful substance and also gas [what we are experiencing]
• carbon monoxide
• Radiation.

pollutants from refining crued oil

Refining of this substance occurs in electrical power plants, factories , mining and metal extraction industries, etc. The pollutant being released is smoke, soot, dust and grit.

Carbon monoxide

Carbon monoxide is been gotten from burning fuel in a car, generator, the exhaust in these facility is the main source of carbon monoxide, it releases this harmful substances into the air and this is bad.

Radiation

Radiation occurs as an invisible and extremely dangerous pollutant, it is a form of energy that is emitted as rays or particles by radioactive substance into the air which can cause various diseases.

2 Water/aquatic pollution

Is simply been caused by us dumping refuse and sewages into fresh waters, including the spillage of crued oil into the water are various causes.

Refuse and sewage

Refuse is household waste and sewage is mainly human excreta. These waste are organic in nature, people living in undeveloped areas which are close to the sea end up dumping these substances into the water and still people drink and bath from that water and this will spread diseases.

Oil spillage

When crued oil is been transported through sea, and one of the pipes are broken or a hole is been created it releases this black substance which makes it unhealthy to consume the water.

3 Land/soil pollution

Source

Land or soil pollution is the damaging of the thin layer of the fertile topsoil that covers most of earth's surface. This layer is essential for the growth of plants growth, this layer in a well balanced ecosystem continually maintain the various nutrients for plants growth and activities that produce these nutrients. Soil pollution is mostly caused by reckless farming methods, that's farming from time to time without letting the land rest, insecticide used in killing pests, and other activities that causes erosion.

Conclusion

Now we all know that I urge you guys to try your best and avoid making these mistakes because it affects us all in various ways, all ways keep every where clean and tidy, today is Saturday so our motto should be #cleaningday.
