"The most important pathological effects of pollution are extremely delayed and indirect". (Rone Dubos)
In recent years, the problem of environmental pollution has become very acute. In Pakistan, sufficient attention has not been paid to it so far. If we do not tackle this problem now, future generation will suffer from harmful effects of pollution.
Pollution can be of different types, such as, air pollution, water pollution, food pollution, noise pollution and land pollution. Pollution results from the greed of man for getting more and more money. Trees are cutting down on large scales to increase production of the industry.
"Water and air, the two essential elements on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans". (Anonymous)
The main cause of air and water pollution is unbalanced industrial growth, urbanization and deforestation. The owners of industries dump waste material on the surface of the earth or in rivers. As a result, water is polluted and the waste on the earth produces different poisonous gases, which pollute the air. On the other hand, forests which purify air have been cut down and new cities and industries have been established in their places.
Trees and plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen but when trees are cut down, the air is not purified. Deforestation also causes soil erosion. The rich soil is either washed away by water or blown away by the wind. As a result, chemical fertilizers are used to maintain its productivity. Polluted water is used for watering plants and vegetables. In this way, vegetables and crops are polluted. Pesticides are also a cause of pollution to our crops, vegetables and fruits.
Besides these problems, there is the problem of noise pollution. The roaring noise of vehicles, particularly in large cities, is deafening. It causes neurosis and other disorders. The problem of noise pollution must also be tackled on a war footing. The use of mufflers mechanical contrivances which prevent sound from coming out of a machine helps reduce noise pollution. Such modern devices should be produced in our country and their use should be promoted.
Water pollution has time and again caused outbreaks of cholera and gastroenteritis in many districts and is the major cause of large scale deaths. Water pollution has caused alarmingly high risks to human health in many parts of our country and urgent measures are needed to control it.
"Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to be dispersed because we've been ignorant of their alue" . (R.B.Fuller)
In order to control pollution, we need to plan the process of industrialization in such a way as checks the spread of pollution. Similarly, the phenomenon of urbanization should be well-planned and diversified. There should be a mechanism of waste management. Solid industrial and non-industrial waste should be buried in the earth or dumped onto the barren parts of lowlands. It should be destroyed by chemicals that remove their harmful effects and sterile them. A comprehensive programme of tree plantation should be taken in hand. Deforestation should be prohibited. Polluted water should not be used for irrigation. People should not dump domestic wastes on the streets. There should be some scientific way for its disposal.
If the air and water are polluted in this way, man will face greater health hazards in near future. Air will not remain breathable and human beings will suffer. Various diseases will break out and become rampant. When water is polluted, food will also be polluted. Therefore, widespread and increasing pollution must be checked. If it is not checked, man will not be able to maintain his good health. The very existence of life on earth will be endangered.
"The Earth does not belong to us. We belong to the Earth". (Cheif Seattle)
