POLLUTION – A Menace
Pollution is the process that makes nature’s resources such as land, water, air or
other parts of the environment unsafe or unsuitable to use. Pollution can be of
many types: soil, air, water, thermal, radioactive, noise, and light. The toxins
released are inhaled by each one of us while we breathe.
Inhaling poisonous air is hazardous. It can affect both one’s lungs and heart. Long-
term exposure to particulate pollution can result in significant health problems
like increased respiratory symptoms, such as irritation of the airways, coughing or
difficulty breathing. It is not only the humans who are affected from this polluted
environment but also the animals. These dangerous gases in environment are
released by the power industries that burn fossil fuels. Further industries that
dispose wastes in the water, farmers using pesticides, high usage of artificial lights
and loud sounds, cause pollution.
Every individual owns certain responsibility of maintaining few points such as not
throwing garbage all around, growing trees, using public transport instead of their
own, etc. We must shun excessive consumption and avoid careless and deliberate
disposal of post-consumption waste resources which could otherwise be recycled
and would led to pollution control.
Pollution cannot be reduced or controlled if a sense of responsibility towards our
Mother Earth is not felt by all concerned.

 The second paragraph deals with cause of pollution and its effects

Inhaling poisonous air is hazardous. It can affect both one’s lungs and heart. Long-
term exposure to particulate pollution can result in significant health problems like
increased respiratory symptoms, such as irritation of the airways, coughing or
difficulty breathing. It is not only the humans who are affected from this polluted
environment but also the animals. These dangerous gases in environment are
released by the power industries that burn fossil fuels. Further industries that
dispose wastes in the water, farmers using pesticides, high usage of artificial lights
and loud sounds, cause pollution.
 The third paragraph deals with solutions to the problem of pollution.
 The last paragraph concludes without adding any new point.
Common mistakes while writing conclusion:
 Starting with the following
“In the end I would like to say.”
“ I wish to conclude “
“Let us all take a pledge”
