Question

Why do humans pollute the environment?

Answer 1

Humans affect the environment:

1. Chemicals or other airborne particles that are harmful to plants, animals, and people collectively constitute pollution.
2. It also harms buildings and monuments.
3. The change of the land to make room for houses, farms, and businesses has increased human contact with wildlife and given viruses a chance to spread from wild animals to people.
4. The usage of coal in industrial settings is growing, which increases air pollution, greenhouse gas production, and polar ice cap melting.
5. Even today, non-renewable resources like coal and natural gas are used to produce electricity.
6. By burning fossil fuels, overusing chemicals and pesticides, and generating sewage run-off, humans pollute the air, land, and sea.
