Pollution is when contaminants are starting to evolve in the
environment that can cause harm and discomfort to human beings or other living
organisms. It can also damage the environment. The primary causes of pollution
are industrialization and population growth. Industrialization is the process
in which traditionally non- industrial sectors such as agriculture, education
and health of an economy become increasingly similar to the manufacturing
sector of the economy. It means individual labor is being replaced by
mechanical equipments. Industrialization takes a big part of widespread usage
of oil, gas or coal which is excessive use is the main source of pollution. Another
cause is the population growth. If population number will continue to grow, the
demand of foods and goods will increase as well as production.
Air pollution is one of the types of pollution. Air pollution is
one of the biggest problems Europe is facing. It affects mostly the healthcare
and safety of the people around Europe especially for those who are living in
the city and nearby plantation and manufacturing companies. Based on European Environment
Agency, despite considerable improvements, air pollution is still responsible
for more than 400, 000 deaths in each year.
