Answer
Q.14. Write a 150-word paragraph about environmental pollution.
Pollution is the mixing of contaminants or harmful materials into the environment. These contaminants are called pollutants. Pollutants can be natural or man-made. Natural pollutants are volcanic ash and dust from storms. Pollutants are created by humans, such as industrial waste products and smoke from vehicles. Pollutants damage the quality of air, land, and water. Environmental pollution can be of four types, such as air, soil, water, and plastic waste pollution. Say no to plastic bags and carry your own bag while going to the market for purchases. It reduces smoke from industries. Keep the roads of Three neat and clean without any dirt particles. Encourage farmers to refrain from burning crop residues in their fields. Maximum use of public transport can reduce air pollution. Save the most electricity possible. Use products that can be recycled. The disposal of chemicals in drinking water should be avoided. Farmers should use fewer chemical fertilisers to save the land. To conclude, Evo Morales rightly said that the rights of the earth are to be formed to keep the earth livable for humans.
