SAVE NATURE BY TAHIRA BATOOL:-

In our every day life, water, air and land matters alot. We drink water, breathe air and walk on land. We can tell

whether the water we drink has a peculiar taste, is colourless or it has an odour which is unpleasant. The air we

breathe has dust and smoke. The land we walk on is dirty and spoiled. All this is due to the fact that we are

facing serious problems of pollution.

There are many types of pollution, water pollution, air pollution, land and noise pollution. The fast growing

Population, Increased number of factories and industries and a large number of smoking vehicles are the main

causes of pollution.

Water pollution takes place when it gets mixed with unclean and filthy matter due to poor drainage and sanitation

system. Very often filthy water containing human and animal waste and poisonous chemicals is mixed with

drinking water, this dirty water is absorbed by land and reaches the underground storage of water. it is then

supplied to public by the tube wells as drinking water. This dirty water also pollutes the nearby lakes, canals &

rivers. Thus nature's main sources of ground and surface water are also affected.

Land pollution takes place when people dispose off their waste on land. The improper disposal of the waste

material results in a number of problems. When it rains the rain water seeps through the soil. the waste dissolves

and carries with it harmful materials which pollutes the soil.

Air pollution is the most dangerous type of pollution and also very difficult to control. It has spread all over, it

effects on human health are wide ranging and very dangerous.

Noise pollution is also causing problems in the densely populated areas. Excessive use of vehicle horns and

loud music beyond a safe level damages the ear drums.

Environmental protection department is taking measures to control pollution. We as citizens must feel and take

upon responsibility to keep our environment clean which is also our religious obligation.

We must grow trees and protect the existing plants and trees. It is observed that most of the people clean their

own places, houses and buildings but throw garbage in the street or on the roads. It is the duty of each one of us

to put the trash in the dust bins and keep our atmosphere clean.

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES BY ZARINA BIBI, CLASS: 8th.

The surrounding in which a person live is called its environment. Today the whole world is facing many

environmental problems like waste disposal, global warming, ozone depletion and over population and pollution.

These all issues need attention to be solved. Cities have started growing upwards large apartments, complexes

are now replacing single houses, due to over population. Sometimes, people don’t care how they dispose off

their debris, noise pollution through loud music and loud horns. Late at night can also be a menace lack of

education, unhygienic conditions, smoke, filth, dirt, foul smell are responsible for the pollution of environment due

to the over population. Pollution causes sleep disorders, heart burns, high blood pressure and various heart

problems. We don’t hurt or harm others by making undue noise. In this way we will be able to reduce and resolve

an environmental issue. Let us stop noise pollution.

NATURAL ENVIRONMENT BY ABIRAH NADEEM CLASS 10th

The natural environment, commonly referred to simply as the environment, is a terminology that is comprised

of all living and non-living things that occur naturally on earth or some region thereof. Recycling involves

processing used materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air

(for circulation) and water(from land filling pollution by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal and

lower green-house gas emissions as compared to its production.

Recycling is a key component of modern waste management and is the third component of the REDUCE,

RE-USE and RECYCLE waste hierarchy.

Recyclable materials include glass, paper, metal, textiles, electronics (cell phones, computers) and plastics.

Though similar composting odd biodegradable waste. Such as food or garden waste is not typically considered

recycling. These materials are either brought to a collection centre or picked up from the curbside; and sorted,

cleaned and re-processed and to new products bound for manufacturing.

However, critics of recycling claim that it often wastes more resources than it saves, especially in cases where

it is mandated by government.
