Environmental Pollution(Type 1)
(DIFFICULTY: Easy)
The surroundings in which a person, animal, or plant lives are called the environment. There are many elements in our environment. Air, water, soil, plants, animals, etc. are such elements. They are essential for the environment as well as human beings. These elements should be sound for our sound living. But when they are polluted and their essential balance is disrupted ( ব্যাহত ), this phenomenon ( ঘটমান বিষয় ) is known as environmental pollution.
Nowadays, almost everywhere, our environment is being seriously polluted. In many places in our country, the environment has become extremely polluted. We are responsible for this severe ( গুরুতর ) pollution. Industries and factories emit huge amounts of smoke, gases, and fume. Motor vehicles also emit large amounts of smoke and gases. All these pollute air seriously and polluted air is very harmful to us.
Water gets polluted due to the dumping of industrial wastes and chemical fertilizers and insecticides which are washed away into rivers and canals. Due to the indiscriminate use of vehicle horns, loudspeakers, mikes, etc., the sound is polluted.
Soil is polluted by harmful chemical fertilizers and insecticides. Besides, people are cutting down trees at random. All these are causing environmental pollution.
Consequently, man becomes sick, animals and fishes are reduced, global warming is increasing, polar icecaps are melting, frequent floods are occurring, and so on. We all should be aware of this harmful pollution and take effective measures to check it.
