It may be easy to define pollution but the impacts of
pollution are definitely fatal.
The process which fully or partially disturbs
the natural or balance composition of any part of the nature is called
pollution. Right?
Flow of untreated wastewater into the water bodies, mixing of
poisonous or harmful gases into the air or dumping of hazardous waste in
soil are dismal examples of the harmful process of pollution.
Frankly speaking, pollution can’t be defined as
enthusiastically as it can be condemned and censured. Why?
Because pollution's definition is not as much important as its remedial measures are of utmost
importance to save human life from its hazards. Anyway, whatever disturbs the
natural composition of anything is called pollution.
Action-oriented definition of pollution
An action-oriented definition of pollution can rightly be observed at a place
either at land or water which has been impaired by its hazards. A densely
populated commercial hub of backward metropolis, a village at the coastal belt
of Asia or Africa or an agriculture land damaged by the undue spray of chemical
fertilizer and pesticide can unequivocally tell the sorry state of harms of
pollution.
In slums of a megacity, the harms of pollution are visible from the standard of living of its dwellers. Squalid streets, unhygienic food, smelly restaurants,
footpaths with heaps of garbage and dirty urchins are enough to tell the
fortune of people who lives in such underdeveloped areas. It shows the nexus of
pollution and poverty. More pollution means higher poverty level and it is quite evident in the poverty-ridden areas of the world.
In the fatal process of pollution, we can't see what is
affected most but the impacts of all types of pollution are more or less same. Either it is air
pollution, water pollution or land pollution; they directly impact human
life apart from marring the natural beauty of the environment.
We breathe in air
but can not feel the level of pollution in it. It dawn upon us when after some
times we face problems in breathing.
We don’t know how land pollution is
contaminating the food we eat but when it becomes hard to digest even tender kind of food we come to know that our digestive system has totally been
disturbed.
Therefore, definition of pollution is definitely important
to understand how pollution is generated but more important is to realize the harms
of pollution wherever we observe that pollution is directly or indirectly
affecting the natural fabric of our lives.
In this way, we would be able to take
precautionary measures to protect ourselves from its harm and to make efforts
to contain it to the lowest possible level.
