Pollution and Environment

Instructions for your blog 2.
For this second blog, you will write about a problem we as human beings and the Earth in general is facing due to the global warming or the pollution of the environment.
First, you need to take or find out a picture that represents this problem (you upload the picture where you write your comment)
After that, under the picture you will write a description about this problem. You can talk about aspects like: How is it caused? Which are the causes of this problem? What consequences is this problem bringing to human and wild life? Where is it more common? Is there any solution to eradicate this problem?
The following is an example I am providing you:


Red Tide
The red tides take place as consequence of the explosive increasing of a population of tiny seaweeds. They can be provoked because of polluted water from towns, houses or entire cities that goes into the ocean. Because of this contamination, the red tides produce toxins that get into the bodies of animals such as oysters, fish, shell-fish, lobsters, shrimps and crabs. When people or animals consume them, they can cause many diseases as stomachache and severe diarrheas or even in the most serious cases death in animals as well as human beings that ate them. This problem is very common in many countries where they do not have a project of treatment for polluted or residual water and every year affect the economy fishermen, sailors and customers in general.

  1. Water polluted
    Waste from factories, farming and households are the main sources of water pollution. Rivers and lakes become polluted when untreated wastes, such as garbage, are dumped into them. This waste is full of bacteria and chemicals.
    Many farmers use fertilizers and pesticides; sometimes these chemicals are carried along with the excess water that filters into the ground water supply. When human drill for wells they may top into this polluted water and become very sick.
    I think that the solution of this problem is to make a water treatment plant. Before water is distributed to communities for household and other community needs, it must be safe to use. This means it must meet the specific standards set by hospitals or other institutions.
    Other problem is the extinction because the pollution or others problems in the world. When an animal cannot adapt to a change in its habitat must migrate to another place. This often happens when food becomes limited during droughts or floods in cold winters or as cities grow; if spaces does not move or adapt to change the species may become extinct. This is another bad problem because the animals and the plants don’t survived in the cities because the pollution as a very bad problem and the animals don’t have food; they don’t survived.

  2. AIR POLLUTION...
    Air pollution is given by various causes such as factories, cars and ourselves when we smoke or burning things in our homes ... This environmental problem has become one of the most serious of the century because the accumulation of these gases or rather the carbon dioxide produced by these accumulates in our atmosphere and the consequences have been taking place gradually among these are health problems, destruction of the ozone layer ... If we do something now in 50 years we will be regretting what we did to the environment, and it costs us to do things as simple as to avoid using public transport, no smoking in public, take care of our forests...

  3. There is a lot of air pollution in our world, especially in the capital cities of each country. The air pollution can be caused by factories, means of transportation like planes, trains, cars, motorcycles and trucks. People also cause air pollution when they burn trash in empty lots or when they cause burn down forests. Air pollution has many bad consequences for humans. They will have allergies, respiratory problems as asthma, cough and lung cancer. People can help decrease the problem if they start using bikes, if they walk more, if they share their cars to go to work, if they use the bus and if the factories help prevent air pollution with new technology.

  4. Contamination of the waste:
    This is produced by the waste we leave behind us day by day, we as human beings we should recycle because we are contaminating our homes, our physical safety and that of others.
    One cause of this problem are the technological advances since we discard the old and new that we acquire and the most serious is that these wastes old last million years to disintegrate but not completely.
    As we may make recommendations:
    1-corporate-level campaigns and extend to other institutions that help the planet.
    2-Think about what you buy every day and that damage in the future.
    3-teach new generations to take care of our home.

  5. Trash Pollution.

    A big problem of the world is the garbage because every time we are more on this planet and many people don’t care about the waste that is made every day and they do not worry about sorting the wastes at plastic, cardboard and glass, but only pull everything together and they think that nature would take care to separate and not worry about the future but live the today and the less you have to do, better because everything in this world want to be quicker and the less you make best to spend more time to me, no matter what happens in the world tomorrow when the garbage come to beyond us because of our bad habits of not helping nature to dispose our garbage properly, even we have time to make our planet back to give us more of what gives us now we can all stop polluting

  6. Air pollution is given by various causes such as the large number of cars and buses that run daily, factories, acid rain that pollutes foods found on earth and the large amount of carbon dioxide in the environment.
    One of the most disturbing factors of this pollution is cigarette smoke, to humans is very harmful as it causes cancer.
    For this problem we can start by stop using the car as well as start planting more trees so that they can purify the air and air to be recovering well with no pollution, also by recycling everything that is plastic and cans..

  7. Deforestation:

    The deforestation is caused by the human for not knowing the importance of the forests and the trees in the world. This problem is caused by the humans because the families, communities and countries not are interested in the environment and the problems that we produce when they cut the trees.
    Worst is that this problem affects both the people as to animals. Because the deforestation causes droughts, soil erosion, floods and desertification besides remove the animals of her environment and her houses.
    The place that has the most deforestation in the entire world is Michoacán of Mexico. This city covering 4 206 000 000 hectares and has an annual loss of 600 thousand hectares of jungles, forests and mangroves.
    The different solutions for eradicate this problem are: first, talk with a specialist about of the different solutions and what problems bring the deforestation. Then communicate this solutions and problems of the deforestation to communities and families and how they can help. Finally, care all the forest that we have and give the example to everyone.

  8. Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into a natural environment that causes instability, disorder, harm or discomfort to the ecosystem Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat, or light. Pollutants, the elements of pollution, can be foreign substances or energies, or naturally occurring; when naturally occurring, they are considered contaminants when they exceed natural levels. Pollution is often classed as point source or nonpoint source pollution.
