What is Radioactive Pollution? Radioactive Pollution is defined as the physical pollution of the air,water and other radioactive items. The ability of certain materials o emit the protons gamma rays and electrons by their nuclear is known as the radioactivity. The protons are known as the alpha particle and the electrons are also known as the beta particle. Those materials are known as the radioactive elements. The environmental radiations can be from different sources and can be natural or man-made.
What is Thermal Pollution? Industrial discharge of heated water into a river, lake, or other body of water, causing a rise in temperature that endangers aquatic life. Thermal Pollution is the degradation of water quality by any process that changes ambient water temperatures.
What is Light Pollution?
Light pollution is when the brightening of the night sky that inhibits the observation of stars and planets, caused by street lights and other man-made sources like when the beautiful White gleam of the moon is being blocked out by the street lights and other man made sources.
How can we reduce Pollution? 1.Reduce the amount of runoff that comes from your property. 2.Minimize your use of fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides. 3.Replace your lawn and high-maintenance plants with native plants. 4.Properly store and dispose of chemicals. 5.Clean up pet waste.
