The global problem of the present day is the Environment pollution, which is a serious threat to the existence and survival of human race. Man in making variety of efforts for progress and development causes much damage to forests, wild life, land surface, water resources and to atmosphere, which are part and parcel of the environment. Serious problem is that of environmental pollution which every citizen faces either in the form of automobile pollution or the obnoxious smells emanating from drains near his house or the irritating sounds and noises from his locality or the dirty drinking water from his pipes. Man's activities through urbanization, industrialization, mining, and exploration are at the forefront of global environmental pollution. Life support system inbuilt in nature are being strained and vanished. For example, depletion of ozone layer is leading to gradual warming up of the environment due to built up of carbon dioxide and other gases. Environmental pollution is not a new phenomenon, yet it remains the world's greatest problem facing humanity, and the leading environmental causes of morbidity and mortality. Both developed and developing nations share this burden together, though awareness and stricter laws in developed countries have contributed to a larger extent in protecting their environment. Despite the global attention towards pollution, the impact is still being felt due to its severe long-term consequences. This Artivcle examines the types of pollution-air, water, and soil; the causes and effects of pollution; and proffers solutions in combating pollution for sustainable environment and health.
