It’s about time we do something about it! Air pollution occurs when wastes dirty the air. People produce most of the wastes that cause air pollution. Such wastes can be in the form of gases or particulates. These substances result chiefly from burning fuel to power. Water pollution occurs when unwanted sewage mixes with water sources. Affects on our surface’s water such as rivers, lakes, oceans and the water beneath the surface of the earth are also a part of ground pollution. Ground pollution is the destruction of the earth’s thin layer of healthy, productive soil, where much of our food is grown. This cause decrease in production of crops, degrade in quality of soil, degrade in qualitative production. Noise pollution occurs when unwanted sound is produced.
