Pollution and Conservation ReadingThere are many kinds of pollution. Air, water, and land can be polluted.Some pollution is caused by nature, such as floods, forest fires, and volcanoes.People are the major cause of pollution.

We harm the land bycutting down trees in the forest, especially to build roads and new houses withoutcareful planning and thinking.All people need water to drink and to make plants grow. Rivers and lakesare polluted when sewage or garbage is dumped into the water. Plants andanimals die because of the pollution in the water. Other pollution in water iscaused by oil spills. The oil often stays on top of the water. It covers the beachesand land. It gets on the fish, birds, and animals that live in, on, and around thewater.Particulates are tiny bits of liquid or solid matter that get in the air. Carsand factories put particulates in the air, and this makes the air looks gray andsmoggy. Usually the wind helps the air pollutants to move around, but when theair doesn’t move, pollutants stay in the air. Some people cannot go outside whenthe air is very bad.The only way to save our environment is to think about pollution. How canyou stop or limit pollution?
