Usually several factors are
blamed as main causes of pollution. They are; smoke emissions from factories
and vehicles, effluent from manufacturing units and waste from houses, offices and industries. But these are the apparent causes which directly affect our
environment. Actually there are several real causes of pollution which force
industries to produce more and don’t take care of environment, vehicles to run
without caring environment and people to just consume and use the things
without considering rising pollution load on land.
Here are the 20 real causes of
pollution which on one refers and mistakenly calls them bookish reasons that
have no direct relationship with rising level of pollution all across the globe.
1. Greed
Greed has folded our eyes and we
are running after money to meet our all desires. To fulfill our desires we buy
things which ultimately factories have to produce. We keep changing things just
to show others how affluent we are. We hate to reuse things fearing people may
consider us poor. That is why before end of its service life we just discard a
valuable thing because it goes out of fashion.
2. Consumerism
We seek pleasure in consuming
things. If we are sad we want to eat something or drink to relax ourselves. We
don’t believe in doing good to get satisfaction. We just serve ourselves to
please ourselves. We don’t know real happiness lies in caring others. But we
just consume and consume to make ourselves happy. As a result demand of goods
rise abnormally and factories produce more and more. We consume maximum number
of products and add lot of pollution on land.
3. Materialism
We find happiness in material
things. If we have lot of money, a lavish house, a royal car and lot of
electronic things we become happy and proud of them. We don’t have any regard
for internal values. That is why we just buy and buy and then use energy to
drive our car, to run electronic appliances and add load of pollution on earth.
4. Death of social values
Social values are least important
for us. We give value to whatever we can see and touch. As a result now no one
cares about values and just runs after money and material things. There is race
amongst us to be richer. For this we don’t care about nature and just do whatever
that can make us wealthy and able to be proud in this world.
5. Just technique
We need solution of everything in
short term. That is why don’t go for any organic solution and buy those things
that just solve our problems. Either they harm environment or not we damned
care about this fact.
6. No ethics
There is no discrimination we
have between good and bad. Whatever is glittering that is good for us. That is
why everyone wants to shine with his way of living and don’t think about green
living that actually does not impress others instantly.
7. Craze to compete
We don’t want to lag behind. We
always want to be ahead of others in everything. In our way of living, in our amount
of wealth, in our luxuries we want to defeat others. For this we just run after
money and think money is the main solution of all our problems. For this we
forget about everything and become a money generating machine.
8. Haste in attitude
We want to get rich quick. For
this we forget everything and just confine ourselves in making money fast to
fulfill our desires that are purely materialistic.
9. Moody nature
We just follow mood. If we want
to go for a long drive we just follow our mood and don’t think this act may add
lot of emissions in the air.
10. Appearance more
Whatever appears that is more
important for us. If someone talks about up-cycling of dress people laugh at
such person and call it a close-fisted person who doesn’t want to spend to
maintain his appearance.
11. Fast life
Our fast way of living has
snatched our mental peace. That is why care is missing from our nature. As a
result we don’t care about anything and environment is among them.
12. Love for convenience
We don’t want to compromise over
our convenience. To go some step away we want to use car and don’t want to
bother our feet. In this way we add emissions in the air.
13. No patience
We think if we care our
environment we will not see its results because it will take long time to bring
results of our environmental care. That is why we just think about our today
and don’t give much importance to going green that can make our tomorrow better.
14. Zero tolerance
We don’t have tolerance to listen
to others. We develop an opinion about everything before a person speaks to us.
That is why we don’t know benefits of going green and just spending a
materialistic life with full of pleasure but no eternal happiness.
15. Hate to culture
We have forgotten our cultural
values. We have made our whole life digital. We just sms to our dear ones on their
happy moments and don’t bother to see each other. As a result we try to derive
every kind of happiness from electronic gadgets. The end result is more
pollution because of rise in their usage.
16. Limited love
Our love is limited now. We love
people not humanity. We love our garden not the greenery of the world. That is
why we just care about our own things and don’t own the whole environment to
take care of it.
17. Reliance on machines
We wrong believe that solution of
our every problem lies in machines. As a result we use machines for everything.
We are forgetting about paper books and just have an ebook reader with
thousands of books in it but we read in same pace as we used to do when we didn’t
have this facility.
18. Anxiety in our mind
We are deprived of mental peace
because of materialism around the world. Real love is nowhere. Every
relationship now bases upon give-and-take. Deal is everywhere sincerity is
nowhere. That is why anxiety stays permanently in our heart, in our mind. As a
result we just try to seek pleasure from materialistic thing to soothe our
anxiety. Its result is rise in pollution.
19. Pessimism
This is one of the importance real
causes of pollution. We mostly believe that tomorrow would be a bad day for us.
That is why we not only earn more to consume more but also want to save more.
For this we put our whole life to save our tomorrow because we always expect it
a bad one. As a result we become more materialistic and add more pollution in
this world.
20. Selfishness
Me-first is our approach in life.
We don’t care about others and lesser about our loved ones. If we are not ready
to care about people how come we think about environment and nature? That is
why we damned care about environment and just run after our desires and needs.
Any more cause?

causes of pollution that no one shares with you before. Do you think I get
