Everyday we are releasing so many harmful substances to the environment. For example, from vehichle and mills we are releasing harmful gases. From leather and textile industries we are releasing toxic chemicals to the environment without any treatment. From ACs and refrigerator green house gases are released. From brick field harmful gases are releassed. So, have we ever thought what are the effects of these activities? What will happen to our planet for these unwanted activities? We may not see the visual effect at present for these. But in the long run our lovely planet will not remain habitable if we continue the release of harmful substances to the environment. Lets see what are the consequences our plannet may face due to these activities.

  1. These harmful substances are getting to human body through different media like direct inhaling or with foodstaff which can cause differnent diseases even cancer.

  2. For Water Exposure can occur when people drink contaminated groundwater or surface water, or accidentally ingest it while swimming or showering. Direct skin contact also is an exposure pathway that occurs during activities like swimming and showering.

  3. Helpful plants will be died due to lack of BOD(Biological Oxygen Demand) in water which can lead the death of fishes.

  4. People can be exposed to hazardous chemicals in soil, sediment, or dust if they accidentally ingest it, breathe it in, or have direct skin contact. Children are under high risk to these exposures. In their daily activities, children have a tendency to have frequent hand-to-mouth contact and introduce non-food items into their mouths which can lead to skin irritation and lungs problems.

  5. Finally due to toxic gas exposure, greenhouse effect are getting high day by day which will increase the earth temperature .

So, this is the time to do something for our planet. Let’s commit to reduce harmful substances effects to the environment and make the planet suitable for living. Otherwise our next generation will suffer for our activities.
