Introduction
When various contaminants enter into an environment and harm the ecosystem, it is
called pollution. Chemical substances such as heat, light, and noise are the reason which
cause the pollution. There are various forms of the pollution such as air pollution, water
pollution, noise pollution, soil pollution, and many more. Pollution is caused by human action
or reaction and sometimes due to the natural disaster. It is also caused by the natural disaster
such as tornadoes, hurricanes, Volcanic eruptions, earthquake and other storms. The risk is
caused by the pollution which affects the living being. Air pollution causes throat
inflammation, chest pain, cardiovascular, respiratory diseases, and general congestion. Aged
people have more risk from air pollution especially those have heart problems or lungs
disorder (Anderson, Thundiyil, & Stolbach, 2012). 14000 people are dying each day due to
contaminated drinking water. Almost 900 million people are still drinking contaminated
water. Pollution spread in large amount by an industrialized society by disposing of the
waste. Ocean acidification, smog can reduce the sunlight which is received by the plants to
carry out the photosynthesis, Nitrogen oxides change the composition of the ecosystem which
affects the environment. These are caused by the Carbon dioxide emission. When refineries
are involved in the environment then environmental damage is not normal. Nuclear power
plants or motor vehicles also cause the pollution by realizing hazardous gases (Gurjar,
Molina, & Ojha, 2010). In this paper, causes of pollution issues and their prevention is
reported.
