biological communities
9. EFFECTS OF POLLUTION

lowering of IQ level, nostril problems, throat infection,
coronary problems.
Effect 2 Water pollution effects kidney cancer, joint aches,
gastro problems, kidney stone.
Effect 3 Noise pollution decline in hearing ability of people,
irritation in their temperament weekness in nerves, and brains
hemorrhage in extreme cases.
10. REMEDIAL MEASURES
Solution1 Land pollution by disposing off all the waste
that directly or indirectly hit the land with an
environmental friendly method and promotion of culture
of reduce reuse and recycle.
Solution 2 air pollution strict enforcement of green laws
to control air pollution at sources by installing safe
chimneys in factories and silencer in vehicles.
Solution 3 Water pollution binding all sources
(factories and household) to never release any
harmful material in to drinking water before
treatment. Drink such water at least after boiling
for 30 minutes . Using water filter to neutralize
its harm
