Effects of Air Pollution

Our physical wellbeing is affected differently by the kind of air pollution we are exposed to. There are many organs and bodily functions that can be harmed, the consequences including:

  • Respiratory diseases
  • Fatigue, headaches, and anxiety
  • Irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat
  • Damage to reproductive organs
  • Nervous system damage.

Land Pollution

Land Pollution refers to the worsening of the earth’s land surfaces. It occurs mainly due to the indirect and direct effects of human activities. Similarly, when we misuse the land resources, land pollution happens. The most common cause of air pollution is throwing garbage in open, and waste is thrown out from factories.

Effects of Land Pollution

(There are many effects of some of them are written)

  • Groundwater poisoning Depending on the soil and whether the chemicals were improperly disposed of on the land, the chemicals could end up in the groundwater. The process is known as leaching. It can occur on farms, industrial sites, and landfills.
  • Loss of topsoil As chemical fertilizers and pesticides are used to maintain crops, the topsoil’s composition becomes altered. The soil becomes more susceptible to harmful fungus species and begins to erode.
  • Impact of land pollution on humans Some of the effects include birth defects, the development of breathing disorders, skin diseases, and cancer. Most of these develop after exposure to waste from water poisoning and soil contamination.

Water Pollution

Water pollution is the pollution of bodies of water, such as lakes, rivers, seas, the oceans, as well as groundwater. It occurs when pollutants reach these bodies of water, without treatment it affects plants and organisms living in the water.

Effects of Water Pollution

  • Diseases In humans, drinking or consuming polluted water in any way has many disastrous effects on our health. It causes typhoid, cholera, hepatitis, and various other diseases.
  • Destruction of Ecosystems Ecosystems are extremely dynamic and respond to even small changes in the environment. Water pollution can cause an entire ecosystem to collapse if left unchecked.
  • Effects of the food chain Disruption in food chains happens when toxins and pollutants in the water are consumed by aquatic animals(fish, shellfish, etc) which are then consumed by humans.

International Dog Day is celebrated every year on 26 August. It is a day to celebrate the special bond between dogs and humans. It is universally agreed that dogs make for loyal companions and are often considered man's best friend. Sometimes goofy, sometimes serious but always lovable - dogs have a special place in our hearts and also on our social media feeds. International Dog Day was started as National Dog Day in the US in 2004 by pet and family lifestyle expert and animal rescue advocate Colleen Paige. She chose to observe the day on August 26 as it’s the date that her family adopted their first dog ‘Sheltie’ from an animal shelter home.   You can celebrate International Dog day by making a donation to shelter homes for canines.

  Why Can't We See Air? We can feel air's its usual presence when we move through it, a comfortable presence when walking across a gentle breeze in the spring. So, why can't we see the air? To answer the question, we must first talk about how we can see things. For us to see an object, we need light. After the light has hit an object, some of the colors will be absorbed by it, and other colors will be reflected by it. Those colors that are reflected by the object travel to your eyeball and are interpreted by your brain. What this means is that if you see a red firetruck, then that object has reflected red light into your eyes, but it has absorbed all of the other colors of light that have hit it. So, why is air invisible? Since our eyes can only see within a very narrow range on the color spectrum, anything that we are able to see must be reflecting light that fits within that range. For air, it turns out that the colors that are able to be reflected do not lie in that visi...
