Abstract

Environmental pollution is not a new phenomenon, but it remains the greatest global problem facing humanity and a major environmental cause of morbidity and mortality. Human activities related to urbanization, industrialization, mining and exploration are at the forefront of global environmental pollution. Both developed and developing countries share this burden, although awareness and stronger laws in developed countries have done more to protect their environment. Despite global attention to pollution, its impact is still being felt due to its severe long-term effects. The purpose of this work is to display the severity of the problem of environmental pollution, in particular, water pollution, air pollution, radioactive pollution, noise pollution. When writing the article, materials and methods obtained from the study of scientific papers were used. This study is further evidence that the pollution of our planet is one of the most pressing problems and that its solution should be in the first place, as the findings show that pollution affects the planet itself, people and their health, animals and much more.
