Enviroment pollution

2021-03-25 16:50:59 UTC

Environmental pollution is defined as "the contamination of the physical and biological components of the earth". This has become a very big problem for every country in the world, is undeniable that this problem affects a lot of ambits in the world some being: human and animals health, bad air, pollution, diseases, etc. Here are some ideas to reduce this problem.

Reduce the number of trips you take in your car. You can instead use your bike, or only use your if it is necessary.
Avoid burning leaves, trash, and other materials.
Avoid using sprays, this is a very big contaminating for the air

In that way we are going to help our planet earth and achieve a better planet for everyone.

💊 Overpopulation 💊

liaandrade — 2021-03-25 16:56:33 UTC

ok so the overpopulation is a problem that has haunted us for a long time. Also in some countries you only can have one kid ok in my opinion that is begin EVIL you know but there are some reasons that I consider they're valid like the food. In some countries are this other thing that is called 🔆lack of food🔆 ok that is other topic but this two problems 💊 Overpopulation 💊 and 🔆lack of food🔆 have a lot in common one of the causes of the 🔆lack of food🔆 is the OVERPOPULATION why beacuse is so much people that thaey have to start to eat some strange food like spiders or rodents who the hell eat that but is necesary because there is nothing more too eat so there are solutions to this and it's not exactly to kill someone NO we are not killers of course not.

this solutionj would be USE PROTECTION yes, we can't stop the human reproduction but this one way to like stop this overpopulation.

Reduce the impact
Human impact on the environment includes changes in biophysical environments and ecosystems, biodiversity and natural resources caused directly or indirectly by humans, including global warming, environmental degradation (such as ocean acidification), mass extinction and others, therefore, solutions must be sought.

1: Use energy more efficiently. Producing electricity and natural gas and delivering it to your door generates greenhouse gas emissions. Installing energy-efficient building systems and equipment can save energy and reduce your environmental footprint.

2: Install renewables. Clean, renewable energy systems, such as solar and wind, can reduce your impact on the environment significantly while lowering your energy bill.

3: Conserve water. Energy is used (and emissions generated) to heat the water used in your facility and process waste water. Reduce water heater temperatures and repair leaks. Install low-flow showerheads and aerated faucets to reduce the amount of water used.

What is pollution?
Environmental pollution or pollution is the introduction of substances or other physical elements into a medium, which make it unsafe or unsuitable for use.
Pollution:
how to reduce pollution at home?
1Avoid smoking indoors (but quitting smoking is the best answer for overall health).

Use craft supplies in well-ventilated areas.
Make sure your gas stove is well-ventilated.
Minimize clutter.
Remove carpeting if possible.
Use a dehumidifier and/or air conditioner to reduce moisture.

Cigarette-seed and Eco-friendly furniture

arianaperez2 — 2021-03-25 17:07:49 UTC

Cigarette-seed
Smoking is one of the most polluting actions that exist. Not only because of the amount of smoke it causes but also because of the cigarette butts, which take about fifteen years to decompose. A cigarette made with biodegradable filters and inside which there are wildflower seeds, which guarantees its degradation in just a few weeks.

Eco-friendly furniture
Factories waste some of the useless things for their products and even in our house, we have more useful garbage than you think. We can make furniture with what we do not use, for example, wire factor sells the remains that are not used and thus they reach to other people not involved in the marketing of the fabric but then if we use that surplus we can make a table and cover as seen with old clothes, and with our imagination create useful and even cheap furniture

Solutions For Human Impact

manuelachiza — 2021-03-25 17:13:39 UTC

Our beloved home planet earth is the only known planet that harbors life but unfortunately in recent years the human impact has devastated nature, destroying and polluting it. That is why today I propose some options to reduce our impact on the environment.The garbage dumps are full of things that still serve what ends up as a great pollution since when they are burned they produce the effect of greenhouse gas, so the first thing would be to start in our own houses, we could reuse old things from the home or recycle them, for example instead of voting the nutella jars to use them as glasses. On the other hand, one of the greatest problems of human beings is misinformation, for years people have not been aware of the environment, which translates as years of pollution, so we must educate children from an early age to create a culture with principles already that it is very difficult for adults to let go of their habits so easily, we would do this by doing talks in schools; We could also use flashy videos, cartoons or using social networks. Another option would be to encourage recycling by giving a prize to the person or organization that recycles the most in the city. I hope we can follow these steps and save our beloved home!

You can help the environment by not throwing garbage in the streets because it damages the environment, not cutting down the trees because it is relevant to the animals that live there, we can help the environment with such small things but in the end they make a big difference as blogs explaining why It is important to take care of the environment, and if we want the polar bears and the poles to survive there, we have to become aware of the issue, a small but very valuable thing is that you can plant trees for the animals and not only for them but for you also because From the trees we have oxygen and humans can survive, another suggestion is not to use transport such as cars you can use a bicycle that not only helps the environment but also your health and if you do not like cycling you can walk with your dog and with those little things we can save a thousand lives.

Co2

2021-03-25 17:17:14 UTC

The emiction of Co² is the biggest problem around the world because is very difficult to reduce it, and as a consequence this have impact in different environments.

Reduce Co2
Co2 makes climate change increase so this causes consequences in all living beings, but we have to many solutions, The use of gasoline emits a lot of Co2, if we reduce the use of a private car we will reduce the Co2, different ways of transporting can be by public transport or by bicycle or electric scooter that today is used much more, we can rent it for little money scooters.

YOU CAN HELP THE ENVIRONMENT WITH VERY SMALL THINGS BUT THAT MAKE A BIG CHANGE FOR EXAMPLE INSTEAD OF USING PLASTICS YOU CAN REDUCE THEM ANOTHER SERIOUS EXAMPLE EVES OF GOING BY CAR YOU COULD GO ON A BICYCLE I THINK YOU WANT TO MAKE A BICYCLE, I THINK YOU WANT TO MAKE A BIKE NO MORE
ANOTHER SOLUTION TO TAKE CARE OF THE ENVIRONMENT SERIOUSLY, INSTEAD OF GOING NARCOS YOU CAN GO IN CANOA APART I THINK YOU WILL HAVE A BEAUTIFUL, UNIQUE EXPERIENCE WITH A LITTLE RISK AND LASTLY NOT STARTING PLANTS AND PLANTING TREES WITHOUT DOUBT THAT MAKES A VERY SIMPLE DIFFERENCE THAT IS ALSO A VERY SIMPLE DIFFERENCE BUT WHEN YOU HAVE COMMUNICATION WITH ANOTHER PERSON THERE MAY BE A CHANGE, YOU CAN TALK ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.

Human Impact

paulaenriquez1 — 2021-03-25 17:25:54 UTC

For me humanity is the most destructive species in the world and it is never enough for us, we have damaged, polluted, burned, absolutely every space of land that has been given to us, and that is why thousands of innocent animals die every day, they burn forests and we remove all the space they have left, I think we should at least try to fix what we broke thousands of years ago. Now I am going to give some alternatives and ideas to be able to take care of the environment.
First something that I have thought is that water is something essential to live so that we should instead of buying disposable bottles, we could buy a bottle that is reusable, and more resistant to refill the water when we want, in my house we have large reusable bottellas that last a long time time and every time we need more water, we just refill it.
Another idea is to try to reuse everything we buy, for example you have clothes that you no longer use, just use them for something else, as a cloth or you can give it to people who need it, the same with food and school supplies.
And finally start buying brands that are friendly with the environment, since if you keep buying brands that do a lot of damage to the environment they will continue to produce, but if you stop buying, at some point they will realize that people don't like those kinds of products anymore.

AIR POLLUTION

2021-03-25 17:26:36 UTC

In our society we have lots of problems towards our environment and one of them is air pollution and deforestation, I think that there is way to solve both of them or at least help them get reduced, this way is by planting trees in the streets and having more plants in our houses, for example if the sidewalk in a neighborhood where not a lot of people walk trough has enough space for a small plant or tree we could put it there, this will help cleanse the air and motive other people to plant more trees and if there is no space where to plant trees in the sidewalks or houses we could start having lots of plants in our house so at least the air in our house could get cleaned. Also, plants are really nice :)

ideas to improve

paulavalencia7 — 2021-03-25 17:27:06 UTC

A very notable and continuous problem is the problem of contamination, this is the introduction of substances or other physical elements into a medium, which make it unsafe or not suitable for use. that also cause more problems on our planet such as: global warming, death of some animals, loss of environments, etc.
We can start by creating bins to recycle the garbage, we could do it with cardboard or some other material that is at hand. This will help family members learn to recycle and separate the garbage that can be reused and that which cannot. It is also a useful alternative to reduce pollution and its effects on the environment.

Human impact on nature, humanity has done a lot of damage to the planet to the point that we are close to critical moments, but it is very difficult to fix it only if people raise awareness in time we can do something but we do not have much time to fix the problem . Right now the most recommended is the use of the three R's: The rule of the three R's, also known as the three R's of ecology, or simply 3R, or also the three R's, is a proposal on consumption habits, popularized by the Greenpeace environmental organization, which aims to develop habits such as responsible consumption.

Many people in the world just one day a year turn off all the lights for an hour due to contamination. This is not the best solution but it is effective if many people do it, and many countries are free to do it and Ecuador is one of them I think What to spend as a family for an hour with all the lights off and with a candle, is not only good to reduce pollution, it is also to spend quality time with your family.

The 3 R: The three R's stands for: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. This rule is part of the waste hierarchy which is a process used to protect the environment and conserve resources through a priority approach.
The three R's stands for: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. This rule is part of the waste hierarchy which is a process used to protect the environment and conserve resources through a priority approach.

Recycle: For a long time, our school proposed to recycle to be able to reuse all that plastic, but since the pandemic began, it is no longer like that, but we stopped recycling things, and that is how, when we saw this quimestral, we decided with my parents that we would recycle again, and that is very important since with that we can reduce the tremendous impact of the environment.

Reduce: Reducing the excessive consumption of sometimes unnecessary things, since with this we have decided to consume less and what we consume we recycle and then reuse it, but there are still many people who continue to consume a lot, in my house we try to consume few things that include plastic.

Reuse: And finally what I mentioned before reuse, it is good to reuse recycled plastic things, even to make crafts, but it is also good to give them to people who recycle, who work in companies that recycle a lot, with this perhaps it seems little but we are helping a lot to our planet.

REDUCE POLLUTION:
To reduce pollution in our house we could start recycling in our house
USE LESS CAR:
To reduce pollution we could reduce the use car so we dont contaminate the streets with polluted art.
Keep your vehicle well-tuned and tires inflated properly to reduce exhaust emissions. Combine errands into one trip — cars pollute less when they are warmed up. Avoid idling — idling exhaust contains more pollutants than running exhaust.

Ways to reduce the use of car:

Walk or bike when you can.
Use the bike-share programs if your city or town has them.
Take public transit when possible.
Carpool with friends instead of driving alone.
Use ride-sharing services.

Together we can save the planet

2021-03-26 19:33:40 UTC

We are destroying our planet, our only place that we can call home, and that’s terrible! 😨We can make many things like using the 3 R’s ♻ that are recycle, reduce, and reuse, and with those little actions we will help a lot our planet, for example, we can apply our creativity in order to create amazing things with all the waste that we produce every day, and like that, we will solve a big problem; but overall the things that we can do to reduce our impact on the environment, I think that the most important is to educate us; by educating us we can understand the most important things about all the dangerous actions that we do and we can solve them. To educate us more I think that in Letort school we can join together 👩🏻‍🤝‍🧑🏻 two days of the week like Wednesday and Friday, we can wear a green t-shirt to demonstrate that we support this cause and we want be part of the change, we can plant trees, collect the garbage in some places of the city and we can talk to learn more and more, we can also make games to teach the little ones how to take care of our planet. Also, once a month, we can turn off all the electronic devises that we use, to give a breath to our planet. I am sure that if everyone helps, we can save the planet; and remember, there’s not another planet we can go, so act now and make the difference! 👍

Let's clean up our planet!!!

2021-03-28 22:24:13 UTC

The impact of human beings on nature is inevitable. In order not to have it, it would be necessary to simply cease to exist. However, it would be desirable to have a balance and coexist with the whole nature to make our planet a better place, considering that humans are the only ones with the ability to reason and invent, so we should protect and help the environment.

The biggest problem caused by the human being is pollution, especially in air, water, and one due to our waste. For this reason, we must clean at the same rate as we soil and turn the dirty it into something better.

Urban filters have already been created to clean the air and are being used in Xian and Hong Kong, Berlin, Paris, Brussels, and Oslo. This invention is powered by sunlight and is more efficient than 275 real trees, in addition to being connected to the internet. It is important that in our Latin American countries these options are known and used where necessary.

It is important to share information on how to clean the water, since you can use homemade sand and charcoal filters at home, but to clean rivers and consequently seas you can use filters such as those developed by the University of Quindio (Colombia), which can totally decontaminate the waters, whether by human or chemical waste.

Finally, teamwork is always a strength in human beings, so it is important to encourage our country to also celebrate "World Cleaning Day", which is the third Saturday in September in 157 countries. On this special day everyone goes out to clean during for 5 hours, in streets, parks, beaches, seas and even oceans with the help of professional divers. It could become a great national holiday, which with a properly organization, can help with a lot of material that can be recycled.

there are many reasons why humans are destroying the planet but I choose to throw garbage at rivers and seas if we continue like this we are going to destroy the planet because the animals that live in the seas and rivers are dying and all the water is polluting and that would be very bad because the water would be very dirty and that's why I think that if we stopped throwing garbage everywhere the world would improve a lotthere are many reasons why humans are destroying the planet but I choose to throw garbage at rivers and seas if we continue like this we are going to destroy the planet because the animals that live in the seas and rivers are dying and all the water is polluting and that would be very bad because the water would be very dirty and that's why I think that if we stopped throwing garbage everywhere the world would improve a lot

Throughout the years, humans have generated serious problems in the environment, these problems have brought fatal consequences, sadly all the damage can no longer be reversed but now we have an even greater responsibility, now we have to take care of what remains of our planet...
A super creative and innovative idea is life cerk waste, this is a concept that became popular about 3 years ago and invites us to have a more difficult life trying to generate the least amount of waste, how can we achieve something so crazy? .
For this we have a million products that generate the least amount of waste, some of these products are hair shampoo and conditioner stick, these do not come in a plastic container, if they do not come in a cloth or jute bag, Another very interesting product is the bamboo products, these fulfill their useful life and we can find out and compost them, we have the toothpastes in tablets which come in a metal container, the deodorant now lasts 2 years and is made from a A stone that becomes deodorant when moistened, and so we have a million products that are just as useful and even friendlier to our body but they help our planet a lot

pollution

ameliaalomia — 2021-04-01 16:43:08 UTC

Pollution is the introduction of harmful materials into the environment. These harmful materials are called pollutants. Pollutants can be natural, such as volcanic ash. They can also be created by human activity, such as trash or runoff produced by factories. Pollutants damage the quality of air, water, and land. Many things that are useful to people produce pollution. Cars spew pollutants from their exhaust pipes. Burning coal to create electricity pollutes the air. Industries and homes generate garbage and sewage that can pollute the land and water. Pesticides—chemical poisons used to kill weeds and insects—seep into waterways and harm wildlife. Pollution is a global problem. Although urban areas are usually more polluted than the countryside, pollution can spread to remote places where no people live. For example, pesticides and other chemicals have been found in the Antarctic ice sheet. In the middle of the northern Pacific Ocean, a huge collection of microscopic plastic particles forms what is known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
We can reduce air pollution
Using public transports.
Turn off the lights when not in use.
Recycle and Reuse.
No to plastic bags.
Reduction of forest fires and smoking.
Use of fans instead of Air Conditioner.
Use filters for chimneys.
Avoid usage of crackers.

to help the world we have to stop consuming plastic but how right?

i have an idea a machine that when you put some plastic depending of it size it will hive you some cents and even and dolar so that way people stop consuming plastic and we recicle them so we stop use and creating more and that some way and we make it global
another it can be some kind of machine (again xd) that can make that the aerosol can be contain with and became oxgen that help human and all people any way this has to be and really big one to make more oxigen
