undefined Water pollution refers to the contamination of bodies of water such as rivers, lakes, oceans, and groundwater sources by harmful substances, including chemicals, pathogens, and waste materials. Air pollution occurs when harmful or excessive quantities of pollutants, such as particulate matter, gases, and chemicals, are released into the atmosphere, leading to adverse effects on human health, ecosystems, and the environment. Soil pollution, also known as land pollution, involves the presence of hazardous substances, including chemicals, heavy metals, and pesticides, in the soil, which can degrade soil quality, harm plant and animal life, and contaminate food and water sources.
