“Green Earth, Clean Future: Protecting Our Earth for Children to Come”
Earth’s environmental contamination is triggered by a multitude of factors, such as:
Industrial Activities:
Green Earth, Secure Generations
Car Emissions:
Particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide are among the pollutants released into the atmosphere when fossil fuels are burned in automobiles.
Agricultural Practices:
The use of pesticides, fertilisers, and herbicides in agriculture can pollute water and soil sources.
Trash Disposal:
Degradation of both water and land bodies is caused by the wrongfully disposed of solid trash, which includes plastics, waste from electronics, and dangerous items.
Deforestation:
The removal of forests for industrial, urban, or agricultural uses decreases carbon sequestration and causes habitat damage, soil erosion, and ecological disruption.
Green Earth, Secure Generations
Mining Activities:
Pollutants, including sulphur compounds and heavy metals, can be released into the water, air, and soil during mining operations, damaging the surrounding areas.
Oil Spills:
Unintentional oil spills from tanker ships or offshore drilling rigs can seriously damage marine ecosystems by polluting the water and endangering aquatic life.
Urbanisation:
As a result of infrastructure development, there is a rapid increase in waste generation, pollution of the air from industry and cars, and habitat degradation.
Green Earth
Climate Change:
The combustion of fossil fuels is one activity that contributes to global warming, which can worsen pollution in the environment by increasing temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and increasing the frequency of extreme weather events.
Plastic Pollution:
Overuse and improper disposal of plastic products lead to plastic pollution in landfills, rivers, and oceans, endangering ecosystems and species.
