Task 1

Waste

Waste is known as trash, rubbish, garbage, refuse, junk, litter, and ort these are known as unwanted or useless materials. The waste is deposited, without more, in landfills, rivers, seas or any other place that was nearby. In agricultural societies and livestock waste are produced very few unusable. With industrialization and development, the amount and variety of waste generated has increased tremendously. For several decades they have been followed by simply eliminating the discharge system. This was done even with the increasing amount of toxic chemicals we produce. In the fifties and sixties of our century was checking the serious implications for hygiene and health of people and the significant negative environmental impacts that waste disposal system has. Simultaneously, the amount of any type of waste has been increasing rapidly and it has become clear that we must treat them properly if you want to decrease its negative effects.

Global warming

It is closely related to “climate change” but can be thought of as a more complex set of phenomena, many of which are directly dependent on global warming. Discussed elsewhere in this volume, global warming is a phenomenon that results from radioactive forcing as a result of various gaseous and particulate substances in Earth's atmosphere. The increase in Earth's mean surface temperature is caused by warming of land, ocean, or atmosphere as a result of the amount of the sun's radiant energy that is not reradiated into space but absorbed by the Earth and it components.

Pollution

Pollution can be defined as the phenomenon during which the waste material contaminate the environment. The fact that the causes of pollution and ways to prevent or reduce environmental pollution are quite an important part in the study of ecology, however, it is not all under investigation. Equally important from the perspective of our environment are ways that protect the legacy of fertile soil, clean air, fresh clean water and forests for those who live on this planet after us. Think about and live a happy and well in our common home now, animals, birds, fish and insects? Unfortunately, the answer is no. Since then, as long ago appeared the first early humans, nature gave man everything he needed - air to breathe, food to die of hunger, water to quench your thirst wood, in order to build homes and to heat the hearth. But then came the twentieth century. It is known that the twentieth century was a time of scientific and technological progress. The achievements and discoveries that could make people in the mechanization and automation of industrial processes in the chemical industry, space exploration, creation stations, capable of producing nuclear energy, as well as ships that could break even the thickest ice - it's truly amazing. With the advent of the industrial revolution, the negative human impact on the environment has been increasing exponentially. This industrial progress has led to a very serious problem. On our planet, all - soil, air and water are ...
