Free Guide to Understanding Pollution

April 25, 2009 - PRLog -- As more and more media information is being released about the critical state of our environment, a comprehensive guide to Pollution and its sources has been made available.  

Pollution is not a modern problem.  From the days of the cavemen who built fires in unventilated caves, pollution has become a fact of life.  With the increase in population and industrialization, the levels of pollution have increased dramatically, to the point that it is a major health issue.  No longer is our water or the air that we breathe safe.  

http://PollutionWebsite.com/pollution offers a comprehensive guide to pollution, gives an in depth look at the different sources of pollution, and what changes we, as individuals, can make to reduce pollution.   Any steps we take to help reduce the amount of pollution we generate, has a positive effect on our environment and makes our homes and our lives healthier.  

A free guide is available at  http://PollutionWebsite.com/pollution that  covers diverse topics such as:

Air Pollution

Most people blame air pollution on big industry, but the fact is that each one of us contributes to air pollution.  Reducing the amount of toxic chemicals we use inside and outside of our homes helps reduce air pollution. Learn easy steps you can take to clean up the air you breathe.

Water Pollution

As with air pollution, we are quick to blame big industry for water pollution.  Few people realize that  failing to clean up after our pets outside, oil dripping from our cars, and the chemicals we are putting on our lawns, have a significant impact on our water quality.

Environmental Pollution
   
Learn how a combination of air pollution, land pollution, water pollution and noise pollution, when combined, is creating a virtual monster. Stress levels from these pollutants are affecting both humans and wildlife.

http://pollutionwebsite.com/pollution gives tips such as how to properly use our heating and cooling systems, how to conserve water, and will teach you how composting can help reduce pollution.

Noise Pollution

Recently, studies have been done on the effects of noise on both humans and wildlife.  The outcomes are not pretty.  The constant drone of airplanes, cars and industrial noises are the obvious generators of noise pollution, but everyday noise pollution is even more pervasive than those sources.  

At home, constant television noise, dishwashers, telephones, iPods, computer and, lawnmowers, all combine to make unacceptable noise levels.  Add to that the noise from copiers, keyboards, telephones and back ground chatter that we are subjected to at work, and our lives are no longer quiet.  Not many of us have the resources to get away to a secluded cabin in the woods to escape the noise.  

Children subjected to noise pollution have been shown to do poorly in school, get ill more often and have higher stress levels.  Adults too show aggressive behaviors, have more headaches and show other signs of stress when subjected to noise pollution.

Marine Pollution

In past years, it was thought that it was OK to dump garbage and toxic waste in the oceans because they were so vast.  More and more we are seeing how wrong it is to have this type of thinking. Oil spills, raw sewage, and trash are taking their toll on our marine environment and this needs to stop.

The whole problem of pollution is huge. http://pollutionwebsite.com/pollution, offers free information on what we, as individuals, need to know about pollution and steps we can take to reduce the amount of pollution we personally generate.
