1ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION AND ORGANISATIONS
In the current scenario, it has become one of the important challenges for the
government that they are not able to protect the environmental protection (Greenstone and
Hanna 2014). Various government policies and campaigns regarding the environmental
protection are facing the different types of challenges in the international business industry.
Due to a large amount of environmental pollution and failure of government initiatives the
balance of the ecosystem is getting affected (Greenstone et al. 2017). Therefore this can be
said that the climatic changes and greenhouse gas have increased in the air, which is affecting
the ecosystem in a negative manner. In this study, it has been analysed that due to lack of
proper initiatives and awareness among people, mostly in the congested region, people are
not conscious of its drastic effects. In this study, it has also been analysed that the
environmental pollution is also influencing the biodiversity. Due to the chemical emissions,
mostly in the suburban and urban areas, a large number of species have started disappearing
(Singh, Singh and Garg 2015). It has also affected negatively in the animal plant and human
life. Not only the Air pollution but also the water pollution has brought various changes in the
water ecosystem. Due to this reason in the near future, drinking water crisis will increase in
the environment.
In discussing the role of non-governmental and governmental organization in
reducing the water pollution, this can be said that due to the increasing rate of environmental
pollution and population in developing countries (Lewis and Edwards 2016). In the long run
people will be dealing with the water crisis. It has been identified in this study that in the
current situation water pollution has become one of the major concern. Due to the unsafe
drinking water in every year near about 3.2 million of children are suffering from different
disease. Poor sanitation is the major cause behind water pollution in the developing countries.
It has been also analysed that due to poor economic condition and education, people are

dealing with such kind of situations (Arceo, Hanna and Oliva 2016). The governmental and
non-governmental organisations have taken various initiatives in the case of providing the
access of adequate water facilities to the people. The water bodies are getting polluted due to
the improper waste management policies in these countries. The water bodies are being
polluted by the garbage and waste products of human. If the water pollution in India is being
measured, it will be identified that that the river Ganges receives near about 1.3 billion litters
of wastage in every year. Near about 260 million litres of wastage comes from the industrial
areas (Austin and McCarthy 2016). On the other hand, excessive uses of fertilizers have also
influenced the level of water pollution. It has been identified in this study that near about 6
million of fertilizers have been found in the river. Therefore, in the current situation it has
become very important for taking the steps towards solving this issue. This can be said that
the government has taken the online monitoring system in the dumping ground. The Delhi
government has taken the initiative for managing the situation by categorizing the hazardous
or heavy and large industries, which are responsible for large amount of water wastage (Seers
2017). The Red, Green, White and Orange categorise have been also introduced by the Delhi
government. Here the industries have been located in different categories depending on their
wastages. In the year 1981, the State Pollution Control board has classified these industries in
different areas and introduced the water pollution regarding policies.
It has been identified that the organizations need to focus on developing the
collaborative measures for preventing the air pollution and water pollution (Keesstra et al.
2016). This can be said that the organization needs to focus on incorporating the issues in
developing the social responsibility practices. Through this process, the company will be able
to grab the attention of a large number of stakeholders. On the other hand, it is very important
for the organizations to follow the environmental rules and regulations introduced by the
government. After the introduction of globalization the business industry is developing in the
