Saving the Environment: One Home at a Time

Pollution can be seen not only throughout the world, but also in our own homes. It comes from household chemicals, the amount of water people use and the waste people produce and throw away. What can be done to stop this pollution? Surprisingly, a person can help save the environment by doing simple things.

First, we need to recycle, which allows products to be used over and over again. Recycling can also reduce the number of trees cut down to produce paper products. It takes very little effort. It is not hard to place plastic and glass bottles, aluminum cans and paper in a bin. Anyone can do it.

Second, we need to watch the amount of water used at home. It can be conserved by taking short showers instead of baths, repairing leaky faucets, using the dishwasher or washing machine only when fully loaded, or simply turning the faucet off while brushing your teeth.

Third, we need to reduce waste. We need to recycle whenever possible, but should also try to use this waste effectively. For example, grass clippings and food scraps can be made into compost for plants. The average person produces 4.3 pounds of waste every day, but we can reduce that amount by recycling and reusing.

If we do our part in our own homes, we can help keep the planet from becoming more polluted.

Types of pollution

In total, there are eight sources of pollution in the modern world, which put negative effects on the natural world and the health of human beings.

Air Pollution

Air pollution comes from many sources such as vehicle exhaust, and construction. Several effects are smog increases, higher rain acidity, and higher rates of asthma.

Water Pollution

Water pollution can be caused by improper waste disposal and littering. Some effects of water pollution are decreasing the quantity of drinkable water, and affecting aquatic life.

Soil Pollution

Soil pollution sources include poisonous waste, sewage spills, household dumping and littering. Soil contamination can lead to loss of wildlife habitat.

Noise Pollution

Noise pollution can come from traffic, airports, railroads, construction, and concerts. Hearing loss is one example of noise pollution effects.

Radioactive Pollution

Sources of radioactive contamination include nuclear power plant accidents, and improper nuclear waste disposal. Radiation pollution can cause birth defects, cancer, and other health problems.

Thermal Pollution

Thermal pollution may be caused by power plants, air pollution, and deforestation. As temperatures increase, wildlife populations may be unable to recover from quick changes.

Light Pollution

Sources include large cities, billboards and advertising. If it is near residential areas, light pollution can decrease the quality of life for residents.

Visual Pollution

Visual pollution can be caused by other pollution or just by undesirable, unattractive views. It may lower the quality of life, or affect property values and personal enjoyment.
