Pollution

Obviously, pollution is harmful towards living things. One example of pollution is oil spill. The oil floats on water and the fish that are coming up to the surface of the water to get air will suffocate. So, if the marine life dies just because of oil spill, most of the animals in the sea will be extinct. Just imagine eating fish and chips with just the chips. The pollution in the water MAY also affect the air around it, suffocating land animals including humans.

Many companies like Mc Donalds and other food places that use soya beans also cattle ranch people cut down the forest use it for a few years and cut down more trees because they used the grass

The DENR implements projects like the Industrial Pollution Control Program to regulate and monitor industries to ensure compliance with environmental standards. This program establishes guidelines for proper waste management, pollution prevention, and regular monitoring of industrial activities to safeguard the environment from harmful pollutants. DENR works with industries to promote sustainable practices and reduce the environmental impact of industrial operations.

Positive effects of burning fuels include providing energy for transportation and electricity generation. However, negative effects include air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions leading to climate change, and dependency on finite resources.

Nonpoint source pollution comes from diffuse sources, making it challenging to trace back to specific locations. It originates from activities such as runoff from farms, urban areas, and roads, which can carry pollutants into water bodies. Because of its widespread and varied sources, controlling nonpoint source pollution often requires collaborative efforts among different stakeholders.

Yes, the industry in Tennessee may contribute to pollution through emissions from manufacturing processes, waste disposal, and transportation. It is important for companies to implement sustainable practices to minimize environmental impact and protect public health. Regulatory compliance and community engagement are also critical in addressing potential drawbacks.

Breathing in too much polluted air can lead to various health issues, such as respiratory infections, asthma exacerbation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and heart problems. Prolonged exposure to polluted air is associated with an increased risk of lung cancer and other serious health conditions.

For many people, yes.

Pollution is, like "weed", a matter of opinion. I like dandelion and violets growing in my yard, while others call them weeds. You can define a perfect lawn as being 100% kentucky bluegrass, which would make zoysia grass or fescue grass weeds. Others deliberately cultivate a zoysia, fescue, or even a bentgrass lawn.

There is no agreement on what the chemical composition of clean air is. It's about 4/5 oxygen and 20% nitrogen, but such air is lacking the gaseous water that form clouds. Your body requires carbon dioxide, or else it doesn't inhale and exhale. When you exhale, you add water vapor and carbon dioxide to the air, which are the chemicals primarily associated with burning fossil fuels.

As I write this, my body is being warmed by a stove burning kernels of corn. It's no different than burning oil or coal, except that the corn was grown this year, a process that removes carbon dioxide and water from the atmosphere. So my corn fire is carbon neutral. It adds nothing to global warming, unlike fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). You might like to think of coal and oil as corn that's been sequestered for a long, long, time.

When I passed through Gary Indiana a couple of decades ago, the air was not at pleasant. I commented on it to the guy pumping my gas, and he said, "Yeah, ain't it wonderful? That's what prosperity smells like!"

And there are many people who find pipe tobacco to be a pleasant fragrance, but to me, it can cause a life-threatening asthma attack. Air pollution is associated with the consumption of any fuel, whether it's a fossil fuel or not, and if you're a radical environmentalist, you'd be in favor of all life forms not using photosynthesis for an energy force.

In my opinion i would say it is. The doctors and technicians say "oh its safe you only get a little of this or a little of that" but you never really realize what the effects have in the long run. So if you think about it...yeah it is.

The US began taxing sulfur dioxide emissions in 1990 as part of the Acid Rain Program to address acid rain. This tax aimed to reduce emissions from power plants through a cap-and-trade system.

Greenhouse gases should be reduced to mitigate climate change and its impacts on the environment, human health, and economies. These gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming, rising sea levels, extreme weather events, and disruptions to ecosystems. By reducing greenhouse gas emissions, we can work towards a more sustainable future and protect the planet for future generations.

Water pollution is not directly connected to oxygenation levels, however, certain types of pollution can result in low oxygen levels. Phosphate runoff leads to excessive growth of algae which then leads to excessive amounts of decaying algae which depletes the water of oxygen. But many types of water pollution have no effect on the amount of oxygen dissolved in the water.

The hazy clouds that hang over some cities is called smog

A scrubber in a chimney is used to remove pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide and particulates, from the emissions produced by industrial processes or power plants before they are released into the atmosphere. This helps reduce air pollution and improve air quality.

Nobody keeps track of worldwide animal deaths each year. So lets do some estimating.

For humans 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 is 56.0 million deaths per year (from all causes) with 14 million/yr from some pollution related causes.

There are more animals from people and so there is a larger number of animal deaths.

animals have to eat the oil and they die from a horrible death so that is why we have to get rid of garbage island

1000g C8H18 (octane - approximately gasoline) =114 Mwt +12.5 O2 = 32 Mwt ----> 8 CO2 = 44 Mwt + 9H2O

1000/114 = 8.772 moles gasoline produces 8x 8.772 = 70.175 moles CO2

= 70.175 X 44 = 3088 g CO2 or 3.088 kg.

The reason burning 1kg of Octane produces so much CO2 is that the unseen reactant is oxygen 8.772 x 12.5 = 109.65 moles of it or 3509g of it. Steam or water vapor is the other product.

To write a paper on the causes and effects of air pollution, first, research different sources to understand the various factors contributing to air pollution and its impacts. Organize your paper by outlining the key causes and categorizing them as human activities, natural sources, or industrial processes, then detail the effects of air pollution on human health, environment, and climate. Conclude by offering potential solutions to mitigate air pollution and its harmful effects.

both are responsible for the pollution bacuse people do what is good for them & government may force people with appropriate laws to maintain the ecosystem clean.both can do something about this to keep our planet safe..

Indians are damaging the environment of India through deforestation, air and water pollution, improper waste disposal, and overexploitation of resources. Rapid industrialization and urbanization are also contributing to environmental degradation in India.

DDT and PCBs are classified as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) because they resist environmental degradation processes and persist in the environment for long periods of time. They bioaccumulate in living organisms, leading to potential harmful effects on wildlife and human health. Additionally, they can be transported over long distances through air and water currents, further contributing to their widespread distribution.

Montreal's air quality is generally considered good, but it can experience periods of increased air pollution, particularly in the winter months. Factors such as traffic, industrial processes, and weather patterns can contribute to higher levels of pollutants in the air. The city has implemented measures to improve air quality, such as promoting public transportation and adopting stricter environmental regulations.

solar energy that is captured by the autotrophs cannot revert back to the sun.also,the energy obtained by herbivores from plants cannot go back to plants.that is why it is said that energy flow in an ecosystem is unidirectional.

sun>plants>herbivores>carnivores.

The human environment can impact the natural world positively through conservation efforts, sustainable practices, and biodiversity protection. However, it can also have negative impacts such as habitat destruction, pollution, deforestation, and climate change, which can harm ecosystems and result in loss of biodiversity, resource depletion, and other environmental problems.

No, an apple core is not a suitable fuel source. It is primarily composed of organic matter, water, and cellulose, which would not burn efficiently or generate significant heat energy.
