2. it is a major component in acid rain
3. it can cause severe burns in its gaseous state
4. accidental inhalation can kill you
5. it contributes to erosion
6. it decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes
7. it has been found in tumors of terminal cancer patients

Diseases caused such as the infamous Minimata disease which took place at the southwestern side of Tokyo bay (in Minimata). This disease made cats, fish and humans suffer. This has occurred due to dumping mercury in the bay which contaminated the under-water living organisms.

because of the industrial revolution!:)

Mercury itself is very poisonous. It collects in meat and tissue, as well, so mercury can carry over from anything that has consumed it. Fish are known for leading to mercury poisoning.

13 million gallons of gasoline a day.....24-7

You don't "need to have" Earth, it is there - and it produces fruit and vegetables which we - and herbivores who are eaten by carnivores, and are in turn also eaten by us. It's the cicle of life on Earth, "mother" deity or not.

they have caused a lot of smoke damage in Thailand and the king has taken concern in this.

Vehicles and heavy industry (steel, glass, textile and chemical plants are the worst offenders) are the top contributors to bad air quality in Mexico City.

to decrease the amount of pollution

Yes. You can drive south from American Beach on Amelia Island. Don't stop in front of the resorts they get real upset about that. The speed limit is 15 mph. Drive past the resorts to the Nassau Sound inlet at the southern end of the Island. Watch out for drop offs and the high tide. The currents near the inlet are very dangerous so no swimming. However, fishing is great. Check with the Nassau County sherriffs office to get the lastest rules.

Yes they do get rid of waste products when they are in there webs.

Yes, because when other lakes or ponds get polluted and the clouds condenses it, it will rain polluted rain into the ocean.

which bird can not drink water if drink then dies...?

increase regulations on industry

The entire world has pollution problems, and while Australia's do not compare to those of many other countries, they are still an issue.

everyone destroys the environment in some way. most common way is driving. so, there probably isn't any policies for this..

There is some evidence that suggests that whales beach themselves because of noise coming from navy ships. The navy probably won't do much about this.

So there is nothing being done to stop noise pollution in oceans.

Some feel that it may be splitting hairs to find a difference between these terms. An Impact Assessment (EIA) addresses the possible environmental consequences of a proposed action while an Evaluation Report (EER) addresses the possible impact of a continuing action or a changing practice. One can contain the other.

This may be a stupid answer but it will help... We can all help cut down on pollution in the great lakes by reducing reusing and recycling. We can also try our best to avoid using harmful chemicals and if we do to dispose of them properly.

Sydney's water is mostly polluted with trash but it's a bit hard to find it. The air and the rest isn't that polluted.

This is one example of water pollution. Water pollution can be accidental or intentional, and could include oil, sewage, dyes, or any kind of other chemical that is not supposed to be there. In some cases, very hot or cold water can even be considered a kind of pollution.

I don't know what foods contain iodine, but I now that it's what they add to salt, and that its a needed mineral in your dieft.

I KNOW THAT EGGS AND DIRECT SUNLIGHT ARE THE SOURSES OF VITAMIN D AND AS PER AS IODINE IS CONCERNS IT CONTAINS IN VERY LITTLE AMOUNT IN EVERY FOOD.STILL OUR BODT NEEDS TO TAKE IT FROM OUTSIDE SOURSES AS IT HAS BEEN WELL KNOWN THAT SALT WITH IODINE CONTENT IS PREFERED ALL OVER THE WORLD , WHICH IS BASIC NEED FOR EVERY CIVILLIAN FOR WHICH GANDHIJI MADE ASATYAGRAH. THANKS................

Specific answers can only deal with specific cases.

In general pollution is dealt with by:

* Identifying that the emission/problem is present * Stopping the emission at the source by process modifications or by adding treatment * Cleaning up accumulations of the pollution in the environment * Instituting monitoring program at the source and impacted area to monitorf future emissions Sometimes it is necessary to institute societal changes where pollution is seen as a "bad" thing that cannot be balanced by increased production or profit, or regarded as anatural result of industrialization.
