Land Pollution

Because it gets put into huge landfills and it causes soil eurosion

Contamination of natural environment.

Heavy metals, xylene, other BTEX, Pesticides, Chlorinated Hydrocarbons

In a car or vehicle they pump very cold air into the passenger compartment,so that the occupants are cooled.

In buildings, air conditioning may have several function: cooling the air, filtering it, humidifying or de-humidfying it etc. The objectives are to improve the quality of the air and/or to make the area cooler, i.e. more comfortable.

It would be impossible to stop pollution as even natural occurances produce it, naturals fires, volcanoes, cow manure etc. all produce pollution but they are natural occurances. However this is not to say that we can't seriously slow it down. Less mass beef production would produce less manure. Man made pollutants such as car emmisions are one of the worst contributers and eventhough it's the production and disposal of the vehicle that produces most of the pollution we can use more mass transit like busses and subways. The fuel is also a contributing factor we can drive less and use more efficient vehicles and work on cleaner fuels. Cars that run on compressed air would produce zero emmisions and are currently in the development stage. These could go dozens of feet each day.

Manure is not a pollution. Manure is a fertilizer and causes zero pollution. Animals are not a source of pollution issues. Mass beef production reduces pollution issue at the expense of the animals.

It can cause water pollution by dumping chemicals into the rivers and also the ground which gets into our well water.

For example the industrial snow. It is a product of wet air near different chimneys when inversion occurs.

yes plastic bags are a health hazard. this is beause people can suffocate, this is becasue if a young child gets a hold of the bag they can put it over their heads and then they can have it wrapped around their head and neck and lose oxygen. it is also a health hazard becasue it can pollute the earth since it takes a long time to degarte because it is not biodegradable.

There are many ways we can prevent environmental problems, especially Global Warming. Common and simple ways we can help save our environment are as follows:

1. Stop using spray products with CFC's

2. Stop burning wastes especially non-biodegradables.

3. Protest against big industries producing too much carbon into the atmosphere.

4. Support our leaders in their struggle to implement rules regarding the protection of our environment.

5. As individuals, the only thing we can help prevent environmental problems is to keep our environment clean. Get your hands dirty, pick up dirt.

the one i drive an many more

to stop land polloution we should not use cars alot put filleters to the factores do not cut trees and we should plant trees and we should take care Of water and dont use electricety so much

true

depends where you dump it dumbazz, if u dump it in water = water polution

land= land pollution............. DIPSHIV

Land pollution is pollution of the Earth's natural land surface by industrial,

commercial, domestic and agricultural activities.

Air conditioners can make you sick because they tend to grow mold. Anytime moisture is involved in a process, it is a breeding ground for bacteria and mold. This can be pumped into the air and give you allergies or a respiratory infection.

Acording to the book 'Guns, Germs, and Steel' by Jared Diamond;

Farming is considered an auto-catalytic process because it creates a positive FEEDback cycle (no pun intended).

A gradual rise in the human population was already occurring during the late Pleistocene era. The rise in population required people to obtain more food to support that population. Once people began to produce their own food and become less nomadic, they could have children more frequently and thus the population rose even more. This is perhaps why farming communities were no better off than hunter-gatherer societies.

Even though farmers could manifest more calories per acre, the huge increase in the population meant that they actually worked more hours to produce more food to support all those extra people. This is why modern studies have found that hunter-gatherers enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle than farming societies.

Land and waterways are affected by pesticides. Other than that, insects and animals that are part of the food chain can be affected.

A pollutant is a polluting agent ,the substance that actually pollutes an area ,but pollution is the process of polluting an area like water or air.

OR
pollution is the disturbance created in nature is pollution and the substances that make pollution are called pollutant

We do it, not on purpose, but in trying to machine objects

We benefit indirectly by producing products cheeper

I think that land pollution affect farmers more because the plants would die, but I am not sure this is a guess. I am doing a assignment on Pollution if anyone has any better answers please be welcome to answer

Effects of Land Pollution

1. Effects on Climate

Land pollution can affect the general environment of the Earth. Land pollutions leads to loss in the forest cover of Earth. This is in turn going to affect the amount of rain. Less rains mean lesser vegetation. The effect of all different kinds of pollution will eventually lead to problems like acid rains, greenhouse effect, global warming. All of these problems have already initiated and need to be curbed before the situation runs out of control.

2. Extinction of Species

One of the major causes of concern is the extinction of species. Species are pushed towards endangerment and extinction primarily by two processes. Habitat fragmentation is the fragmentation of the natural habitat of an organism; cause primarily by urban sprawl. Habitat destruction, on the other hand, is when land clearing adversely affects animals special such that their natural habitat is lost. Both the actions can cause some species to go extinct and others to become invasive.

3. Biomagnification

Biomagnification is the process in which certain non-biodegradable substances go on accumulating in the food-chain (in one or more species). The most common example is of methylmercury in fish and mercury in eagles. Not only does biomagnification put the particular species at risk, it puts all the species above and below it at risk, and ultimately affects the food pyramid.

4. Effects on Biodiversity

Species extinction and biomagnification is going to overthrow the balance of nature very significantly. The main reason for this is disturbance created in the food chain. To give you a very simple example - on account of biomagnification of mercury in eagles, they might go extinct in the subsequent years. However, we know eagles prey on snakes. Less (or no) eagles will then result in more number of snakes!

As you may have realized, land pollution is indeed going to affect a lot more things than we though it will. Hence, I leave you with some corrective measure you can take on a personal level to reduce land pollution.

•Encourage organic farming - buy organic food

•Proper garbage disposal - separate your garbage before you give it to the garbage collector; and strictly say NO to plastic

•Encourage recycling - buy recycled products, notebooks, paper, etc.

•Restrict use of herbicides and pesticides - they are not only used in farm, but in your own backyard as well

If we reduce our contribution to garbage and litter, therein itself we will be able to significantly reduce land pollution and probably curb it entirely in the near future. Also do realize this isn't only about land pollution; it is about all kinds of pollution. We need to take steps to prevent damaging our Earth. We have no other place to go.

Its all about a girl who work zinc-melting factory in Gumma near tokyo .

She got an illness that makes her commit suicide. after her parents recovered from the state of shock and grief, they looked for a clue in her notebooks of poems, they saw a note saying that she feel as though lumps of iron and sand were creeping all over her body and didn't feel this way before she got cadmium-shaving job. her parents and their friends decided to autopsy her condition. after the physicians studied her kidneys,the findings were staggerring: takako's kidneys contained 22,4400 p.p.m. of cadmium concentration which was probably the highest so far in the world.

#This.Is.REAL

A land farm is a "farm" that literally grows land or soil. It is an operation that grows clean dirt from oil contaminated dirt that can then be used as fill dirt in construction (since you would want to grow crops in previously contaminated soil). It is a practice that employs specially enhanced microbes that use the petroleum waste as food, breaking down the waste in the process.

Landfarming is also a term applied to waste disposal by the systematic application of waste to the land surface an the subsequent fertilizing and tilling of the ground to encourage bacteria to consume the waste. A landfarming area is designed to prevent aquifer contamination, runoff nad allow for sampling to determine the rate of decomposition. Typical wastes disposed of in this way include oily sludges. biotreater microbial sludges, sewage, and dairy and cheese plant wastes. Te waste is often pretreated with a dewatering system. Temporary landfarms may be established near drilling sites to treat incidental waste generated during the drilling process.

Organic pollutants are persistent organic pollutants(POPs). Examples are DDT and lindane, industrial chemicals such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and substances such as dioxins, all of which accumulate and are slow to degrade, and may have adverse impacts on human health and the environment.
