What is natural pollution?
Natural pollution refers to pollutants or contaminants that are released into the environment as a result of natural processes, such as volcanic eruptions, wildfires, and erosion. These pollutants can include gases, particulate matter, and chemicals that can have detrimental effects on ecosystems and human health.
In what two ways can all sources of pollutants be classified?
Pollutants can be classified into point source pollution and nonpoint source pollution. Point solution originates from a single source. Nonpoint polluattion has no single source from where it can be traced.
When The Atmosphere Is Contaminated By Pollutants From Human And Natural Sources Is Called What?
When the atmosphere is contaminated by pollutants from human and natural sources, it is referred to as air pollution. This pollution can have harmful effects on human health, the environment, and the climate. Major sources of air pollution include vehicle emissions, industrial activities, and natural events like wildfires.
What are the two types of pollutants?
Air pollution and CFCs Ai pollution as all the gasses are polluting all the air which can be causing breathing problems and health problems. CFCs as all the fuels and gasses are creating the CFCs to crash and the hole in the atmosphere is getting bigger by the minute.
Atmospheric substances which are unhealthy or interfere with natural cycles are called?
pollution
Are all pollutants man made?
No, pollutants can be natural. Volcanoes often emit sulfur dioxide for instance.
Why can we not just leave it to natural process to decompose pollutants dumped into the oceans?
There are too much pollutants being dumped for natural processes to cope with. We must reduce the amount and toxicity of pollutants we dump in order to help nature cope.
Pollutants that are not broken down by natural processes are?
nondegradable
How do primary pollutants form?
There are two main types of primary pollutants: man-made pollutants and natural pollutants. Man-made primary pollutants are formed largely from combustion reactions used to create electricity and run the over one billion cars that are in the world today. These pollutants include Sulfur oxides (Sulfur dioxide, Sulfur trioxide), Carbon oxides (Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide), and Nitrogen oxides (Nitrogen dioxide, Nitrogen monoxide). Another type of man-made primary pollutant includes VoCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), which are largely responsible for destroying the ozone layer. Natural primary pollutants are formed by natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornados, and volcano eruptions, and include dust, ash, and salt particles.
All contaminants of the air can be divided into two groups. what are they?
Air contaminants can be divided into two main groups: primary pollutants and secondary pollutants. Primary pollutants are directly emitted into the atmosphere from sources such as vehicles, industrial processes, or natural events, and include substances like carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and particulate matter. Secondary pollutants, on the other hand, are formed through chemical reactions in the atmosphere, such as ozone and smog, which result from the interaction of primary pollutants with sunlight and other atmospheric components.
Do natural gas produce more air pollutants than oil?
No.

What are some natural pollutants?
cyclones, volcanic eruptions, forest fires ,overgrazing
What fuel releases fewer pollutants then burning coal or oil?
Natural gas is the cleanest burning of the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). It emits less greenhouse gas than the other two.
Which fossil fuel produces the lowest overall levels of air pollutants?
Natural gas.
What are the 5 Natural Air Pollutants?
air,water,noise,redioactivesiil or land pollution
