Me and my group in school are doing a project on climate change, pollution, etc and we would really like to know some super interesting facts. Thanks.
I made a whole speech about this so here is something.
‘40% of earth’s population’ die because of pollution. Asthma, cancer, bronchitis, and disruptions of immune systems are just some of the causes that are caused from air pollution. Also with pollution, growing crops and finding clean water are also very hard, leading to even more deaths, from starvation and poisoning. The World Health Organization says 3 million people’s deaths worldwide are caused by outdoor air pollution each year, from vehicles and industrial emissions. Polluted waters are common in developing countries and are responsible for ‘80%’ of illnesses and deaths in developing countries, and polluted land, caused by contamination from factories, fertilizers and pesticides, cause crops to fail and livestock to be sick. With polluted air, water, and land, animals get sick, and as the chemicals causing this rise up the food chain, they eventually come to us, and we actually consume the chemicals. About 70,000 chemicals are currently on the market. About 30,000 are thought never to have been tested for their effects to people.
I wanted to know for my project, but everywhere I look, theres only one paragraph saying the same thing about humans being affected by it and a whole page on wildlife. Any good books would also be helpful. I know that deformities occur in children that eat the polluted fish, but I’m trying to find specifics on all medical issues with pollution. OCEAN pollution.
Many things found in the ocean may cause seafood to be dangerous to human health. The effect on humans from contaminated seafood may include birth defects and nervous system damage. Medical waste found in the ocean is being tested to see if swimmers have a chance of developing Hepatitis or AIDS. Other waste has been known to cause viral and bacterial diseases. This type of pollution can be stopped by watching what pollution we are letting into the ocean. People are trying to decrease the amount of waste in the oceans by recycling as much garbage as they can so there is a smaller amount of very harmful materials in the ocean.
Some people are more sensitive, less resilient and therefore more vulnerable to health problems associated with EMF pollution. As a result, those more sensitive to EMF pollution can be more vulnerable and susceptible to some of the major diseases of our time, such as Alzheimer’s disease, cancer and diabetes. Epidemiologic studies (study of factors affecting the health and illness of populations) relate electromagnetic fields to birth defects, psychosis, childhood leukaemias and to other cancers, especially brain and reproductive tumours. I am thinking maybe this could be why there are so many cases of autism?
I line my hat with aluminum foil.
It has the added bonus of disrupting alien mind control.
However it does cause the voices in my head to echo.
I need to know exactly how water pollution can effect the water cycle, directly and indirectly. Accurate sources, please! Thank you so much if you answer 
if you’re not going to answer it, don’t bother typing a response!
lol
I am doing a research about pollution in marine life and what can individuals, schools, business and organizations do to help stop harming marine animals.But I have no clue what can business and organizations do to help.
Well for one thing, plastics that take decades to bio-degrade (rot into nothing) should be replaced. Every time you choose a plastic bag for your groceries you have something that won’t go away for years. The same thing for plastic soda bottles. They last almost forever. In a study not long ago, these kinds of things were found to be the biggest pollutant of our oceans. They interfere with the natural order of everything from birds, to bacteria. There have been for years people who wanted to outlaw most plastics from our lives (the kind we use once and throw away) but the plastic industry has powerful lobbyist in places that urge law makers not to pass any kind of law that would reduce our consumption. Some cities have taken matters into their own hands and have mandated, as one example, that plastic bags be outlawed and people can only use cloth bags to go shopping with. If that could happen on a national level, just that one thing could reduce marine pollution greatly. All soda used to come in glass containers, as did milk. You turned them back in to get money when you bought more soda and milk. (it was called a deposit). All beer and wine is sold in glass containers by the way, so why can’t we go back to that? If you could get a movement going like that, go for it.
my teacher gives me stupid questions to answer, that dont even show up on google.
please help me!!
What pollution problems do the following chemical have in the air?
- Carbon Monoxide.
- Nitrogen oxides.
- Sulphur oxides.
There are many pages on the internet on this subject. The main USEPA page is referenced.
I have to make a story about pollution for 2nd graders and I need to explain what pollution is. My story is about people leaving trash lying around on the streets and the trash getting into the ocean. Is that even pollution? Please help!
Your story is on pollution since it tells on people leaving trashes on streets thus harming the area.
in short words, pollution means unclean or stink
I don’t really know what you need but that’s all the help I can give you.
need answer ^ ^
"is there site where can i find the answer?"
what is the activity done by human to prevent environmental pollution?
needs to prevent environmental pollution?
conservation
After the atomic bombing over Japan, there was a lot of pollution in the air and water. So, what did the government do back then to solve the problem?
Nothing. It’s still there today. Sadly!
Pollution - 30, 31.8, 32.1, 26.8, 30.4, 40
Cost- 915, 891, 968, 972, 952, 899
graph it.
pollution is your x
cost is your y.
then connect the dots.
then find where 28 is, and follow it up till you find where the line you just plotted crosses it, and follow it left to the number that is there.
