Question

Name the two main types of pollution \[?\]

Answer 1

Hint: First we know pollution is something that contaminates the environment. The different types of pollution are water pollution, air pollution, solid waste pollution and noise pollution. The main sources of pollution are household activities, factories, agriculture and transport.

Complete answer:
Air pollution is a pollution of the natural air by mixing it with different pollutants such as
harmful fumes and chemicals. This type of pollution is also caused by burning material or by gases emitted by vehicles or harmful fumes emitted by some industries. Global warming is one of the biggest side effects of air pollution as per the experts.
Water pollution is the pollution of the natural water by pollutants such as bacteria, chemicals, and particulates that reduce the purity of the water. Oil seepage as well as littering is one of the most common forms of pollution. It mainly occurs in lakes, oceans, rivers and even underground reservoirs.
Soil pollution (land pollution) It is the pollution of the soil or the land that
prevents the growth of natural life. It includes land usage for irrigation, wildlife as well as habitation. The very common causes of soil pollution include hazardous waste, mining as well as littering, non-sustainable farming practice, seepage into the soil, etc.
The noise pollution due to loud noises which are fashioned by human activities that disturb the standard of living in the affected area.

Note:
Note that all types of pollutions are interrelated directly and indirectly can be a
cause for each other. As air pollution has a direct relation to thermal pollution (temperature difference in nature) and indirectly relation to sound pollution. Also note reduction in water wastage, consuming less light is reducing pollution indirectly.
