Answer: Estimates range as high as 40% of the worlds deaths are attributable to non specific forms of pollution. The problem of arriving at a figure is to determine if pollution is directly, indirectly or marginally related to any specific death

Based on this rate, here is an estimate of the incidence of death among people now living in the world with the equivalent pollution related rates in brackets: * 1.78 deaths per second ( 0.4/sec)

* 107 deaths per minute (27/min)

* 6,390 deaths per hour (1,356/hr)

* 153,000 deaths per day (37,000/day)

* 56.0 million deaths per year (14 million/yr)

Can you fix or eliminate land pollution?

Land pollution could be fixed, at least to a degree, if people worked together to stop the pollution. It is doubtful that pollution would ever be eliminated totally because a lot of pollution to the land is from chemicals that are used in agriculture. It is highly unlikely that those chemicals will ever stop being used.
