2. INTRODUCTION
Pollution of
chemicals on the
environment
Due to unscientific
and improper use of
chemical substances
Due to high
population density
3. CAUSES OF CHEMICAL POLLUTION
Insecticides and chemical fertilizers
Refuses, waste material and plastic
Smoke from means of transport and industries
Food Colorings
4. INSECTICIDES AND CHEMICAL FERTILIZERS
Chemical fertilizers and insecticides
used by farmers cause chemical
pollution
Commonly used insecticides kill
many useful insects that hampers
the growth of plant
Many people died due to the
consumption of fish containing
profuse level of mercury in Japan
5. REFUSES, WASTE MATERIAL AND PLASTIC
Improper disposal of dirt and
garbage
Noxious substance in dirt
spread out in the air cause
atmospheric pollution
Plastic is non-decomposable
substance and it will ultimately
pollute the environment
6. SMOKE FROM MEANS OF TRANSPORT
AND INDUSTRIES
Gases emitted by vehicles such
as carbon dioxide, carbon
monoxide, etc. cause greater
pollution
Cause acid rain
Increase acid in the soil and
lower fertility
7. FOOD COLORINGS
Colors are used in foods
and drinks to make them
attractive
Affects human health
Cause serious diseases like
cancer
8. CONTROL MEASURES
Establishment and
implementation of serious rules
and regulations
Farmers should be encouraged
to use organic fertilizers
Train farmers for proper use of
chemical fertilizers
Industrial waste should be
filtered before mixing into
groundwater
9. Noxious smokes from industries
should not be allowed to spread in
the air
Awareness about the
consequences of using harmful
substance in food
Unnecessary use of insecticides
and fertilizers should be
discouraged
CONTROL MEASURES
