The environment consists of natural surroundings around us. Environmental pollution includes land pollution, water pollution and air pollution. Land pollution occurs because of deforestation which causes global warming and soil infertility. Hunting of wild animals is a cause for land pollution. Water pollution is caused by throwing garbage into water and disposing of waste material from factories into rivers and seas. Air pollution is the most fatal form of environmental pollution as we cannot live without Oxygen. There are many things that can be done to prevent environmental pollution. People should be educated on the importance of protecting the environment.
