Thermal means 'temperature' and 'environment' means that which surrounds you. Temperature would include the ambient heat of the air, hot/cold surfaces and sources of thermal radiation.
Thermal pollution is usually caused by Man's production and use of energy or by Man's urban conurbations. There is little that can be done to reduce this form of pollution. However, thermal energy radiates away very quickly and Man's direct contribution to the heat/cold of the environment is minimal. It is greenhouse gasses that are causing the biggest thermal pollution but this is an indirect means of thermal pollution of the planet.
What else can I help you with?
What factories cause thermal pollution?
Those factories having boilers use coal as their fuel, cause thermal pollution.
What kind of factories is a major cause of thermal pollution?
nuclear power plant
How do control thermal pollution?
Reduce amount of energy waste.
What is being done about Thermal Pollution?
One thing that being done about thermal pollution is that less electricity is being used. Another thing is that heated water is being reused and stored to reduce thermal pollution.
How can industrialists help reduce air pollution?
The factories should be built away from cities.
How do you reduce the difficulties prevailed in town?
towns are many pollution in factories,vehicles etc,etc .
What can you do to ensure the Taj Mahal's survival?
Threats to the Taj Mahal include an increase in pollution and a decrease in groundwater. You can reduce pollution from cars, factories, and garbage.
Factories buildings makes pollution and no one cares why?
People do care and are starting to care more and more, factories especially in developed countries are becoming more environmentally friendly and using cleaner technologies to reduce pollution
What types of pollution?
The main types of pollution are air pollution (from vehicles, factories, and wildfires), water pollution (from sewage, industrial waste, and plastics), and land pollution (from littering and dumping waste). Other types include noise pollution, light pollution, and thermal pollution.
How do factories prevent thermal pollution?
by cooling the water before releasing it back in to the source they got it from and they can install pond or cooling towers to cool the water
What is the excessive heating of a body of water called?
The excessive heating of a body of water is called thermal pollution. Thermal pollution is similar to the greenhouse effect.
An increase in a body of water's temperature caused by adding warmer water is called?
Thermal Pollution.
