What is Environmental Pollution ?

What is Environmental Pollution ?

The environment is made up of systems, cycles, and specialized relationships between living and non-living elements. When everything is working the way it should be, all the living organisms within the environment, including humans, are healthy and thriving.

• What will happen if harmful organisms or substances enter your body? How do you feel?

In the same way if something harmful is introduced in to the environmental cycle, or part of the cycle is disrupted, it can cause a chain reaction of problems right through the rest of the system. These changes can really hurt the health and well being of living organisms. One of these negative changes is pollution, which is the result of unnatural elements entering the environment. Unfortunately, humans are usually at fault in this regard.
Anything that is harmful to the environment is pollution. Litter, car exhaust, motor oil, used tires, smoke, chemicals, disposed computer, mobile phone material etc., all of these can have an instant or a gradual impact on our health
