Environmental Pollution a Huge Issue for Pakistan:

Pollution: The core issue of the present time:

Breathing in the open air and clean air is very important for human health. However, in this advanced and scientific age, man has neither the clean air nor the open air. In this modern age, man is forced to live a polluted life.

Not only is this polluted life-afflicting human beings with numerous diseases, but they are suffering from mental illness instead of living an active life. Air pollution is the main cause of the increasing environmental pollution, which is becoming a major obstacle to building a healthy society.

Chemically manufactured goods and when mixed with various other types of waste, the smoke emitted causes air pollution and the toxic gas and particles emitted into it are added to the atmosphere. They have adverse effects on human health and can lead to complex diseases of the lungs as well as throat. 

Environmentalists have expressed concern that large populations of developing countries live near the pile of rubbish. If the same situation persists, a variety of physical and mental illnesses will be born in these countries, which is a cause for problems for any healthy society.

According to the investigation, the waste piles emit numerous toxic gases. Countries like India, Pakistan, and Indonesia, which make up about one-fifth of the world, are being affected. Experts say that toxic substances can cause problems for children who are nourished in the uterus, which are at risk for mental development.

The general impression is that global warming bombs are several times more dangerous than, nuclear bombs with their effects far more dangerous. The summer heat is getting worse and the heat is rising in comparison to the past. While the winter season is shrinking. Due to climatic variations, the damage from storm rains, flood rails, hurricanes in various countries is increasing, and it is showing some sort of drought and scarcity situation.

Actually, all of these are the result of global warming. Climate change is affecting agriculture and food shortages are increasing as well. On the other hand, industrial production is also being affected because most of the raw material in the manufacture of goods comes from the agricultural sector.

Nature has a great balance in the universe and this balance is the guarantee of the survival of the universe. Ever since man has invaded the environment around him, this balance has not been maintained. The main reason for this is human involvement in the universe. Environmental pollution is at the forefront of these dangerous and deadly activities. 

Artificial sources and resources adopted by human beings for the sake of affordable facilities and convenience have not only run-down the environment condition, but have made it a destination for many types of pollution.

Types of Pollution:

Today, the mix of chemicals and harmful elements in our atmosphere water and soil has risen to an alarming extent. There are many reasons for the increase in pollution. Although human beings have made a lot of progress, the focus on human health and the risks to the environment has been minimal. It is a pity that today humans have degraded this great balance in their environment. Humanity is at greater risk of four types of pollution.

Air: Air pollution occurs when particles of harmful substances in the atmosphere rise. This pollution affects all kinds of organisms because, without water, the concept of life is not possible. Forest fires and the coal industry are a major cause of this pollution. In large cities, smoke from cars and factories is increasing. In many major cities, this can sometimes make it difficult for people to breathe. Air pollution was the cause of smog in Punjab and Sindh last winter. In Karachi, Lahore, Faisalabad and other major cities, the outbreaks are spreading various kinds of diseases, including respiratory diseases and allergies. Effective handling of this is not being done. The need is to promote eco-friendly public transport and prevent hazardous smoke emanating from factories.

Earth: Many hazardous chemicals have inadvertently become part of our daily life such as plastic and pesticides. They pollute the earth. Industrial waste is also a major cause of ground pollution. In Pakistan, pesticides are being used indiscriminately on crops, affecting human life along with the land. 

Earth pollution


Water: Clean water is a blessing but it is becoming a dream. Our rivers, lakes, and seas are being polluted. Pollution has also reached underground water. This is due to the mixing of dangerous chemical elements with water. Reasons for this include mixing waste and sewage into factories. Accidents of ships with hazardous chemicals and petroleum products lead to increased pollution. The concept of life is without water, so it is important to protect it from pollution. Water pollution directly affects agriculture as well as humans. According to a UNICEF study, 40% of patients in Pakistani hospitals suffer from contaminated water-borne illnesses.

Noise: If we consider noise to be bad, it is considered by the desperate people to enjoy it, such as listening to music aloud and loud crackers becoming part of the culture on the occasion of marriage. Noisy hearing loss Occurs, especially as the problem progresses with age. Noise can cause hypertension, another extremely dangerous illness. Continuous high-level noise for up to eight hours increases blood pressure by five to ten points. Sensitivity to mechanical devices and traffic is increasing the noise, which disturbs comfort. Citizens of Pakistan and the government will have to work together to overcome all kinds of pollution. In this regard, the developed Western countries bear a great deal of responsibility, for two basic reasons. First, the western countries, initially the most polluted, in the world. Secondly, they have eco-friendly technology that can overcome the problem of pollution by developing countries like Pakistan.

Pollution in Pakistan:

Environmental pollution as well as terrorism threat for Pakistan. Environmental experts state that environmental disorders are the second largest issue after terrorism. An article on the ‘environmental issue of Pakistan’ has published in an American magazine described that the post-devastating flood had occurred in the country because of the environmental disorders and changes. An increasing disorder in the Pakistani environment and increasing problem in an irrigation system is thirty 30 percent responsible for recent flood disaster. According to environmental experts, while 70 percent of the flood disaster is due to these above-mentioned disorders.

Vehicles on the road cause toxic smoke to increase air pollution. In our case, the car is used in every case. There is a shortage of vegetable and environmentally friendly plants in and around these roads. Besides, lack of proper maintenance of the vehicle is also a cause of environmental deterioration. The sources used to generate electricity are also contributing to air pollution, which is pushing people to death ahead of time. Therefore, natural sources must be used to generate electricity so that environmental pollution is reduced. Like other countries in the world, steps are being taken in Pakistan. The project is being worked out in collaboration with the US-based OPEC to obtain wind power in Sindh, which is an environmentally friendly initiative.

Causes of Flood in Pakistan: 

Powerful people have built buildings in front of the flow of water. Due to which the water does not get the way and the issue of flooding occurs. 

Inevitable Impressions of the 2010 Flood Destruction:

Flooded areas are also prone to diseases.

Infectious diseases begin to spread in flood-hit areas. Flooding destroys all crops, causing stomach and skin diseases in flood victims due to a lack of clean water and food and environmental pollution.

The 2010 flood not only destroyed homes but also deprived the victims of the administrative structure. The situation of the affected people who arrive at relief camps on difficult routes is not much better.

The devastation caused by the floods is yet to be estimated.

Whatever the result may be, it certainly proves that Pakistan is still unable to cope with the monsoon flood or to reduce the loss of life and property.

Floods cannot be prevented, however, and many countries have reduced property and crop destruction and lost human lives through flood management and control strategies.

How did this flood come about and what were its causes, and can they be stopped or not at all? Our government never bothered to consider it.

Government Responsibilities:

It is now the duty of the government to keep the focus of the flood victims despite all the busyness and to take all possible steps to restore them in such a critical situation that it may be possible to restore these victims back to their homes. While the complete loss of these poor cannot be possible, the government should even try to help them as far as possible.

Useful Steps:

Renewable Energy: Solar power or renewable energies should be introduced and their panels cheapened so that the poorest of the poor could buy and use them.

General awareness: Awareness campaigns should be launched at the grassroots level to reduce pollution. Therefore, that people can understand the problem. Moreover, contribute to reducing pollution. 

Labor: Sadly, farming is done every year in this country but its benefits have not yet been seen. Trees are a gift of power, providing free oxygen. Therefore, it is important that people be made aware of the benefits of planting trees and that cutting down trees is a national offense. It should be strictly implemented.

Apart from this, we have to find permanent solutions to the factories and hospitals and cities.

Reduce the number of bikes and take stringent tests for motorcycle running.
Customize the cycle. Make tracks on the roads for cyclists. Low cost but good bicycles to be distributed among people. Also bicycles that can be run in hilly areas.

Double-decker buses should be issued for inner-city travel. This process will reduce the number of vehicles, cars, etc. In addition, there will be less traffic on the roads as well. Buses should be provided to schools, colleges, universities so that students can travel on buses instead of cars. 

To prevent negative changes in the environment, a farming campaign should be launched.

Factories and home dirt should be rinsed in water, controlling the emission of toxic smoke.

Every year on World Environment Day on June 5, public attentiveness should be raised.

The public should be made aware of hygiene issues. That if they did not keep their environment clean, one day it would be their death.

Conclusion:

Pollution is a very serious problem for the present day. Our land and atmosphere are irreparably damaged by pollution. We believe that the biggest cause of all the difficulties and problems of the planet is the people living here. In addition, large-scale deforestation has led to deterioration in the balance of the soil. While these trees convert carbon, gases in the atmosphere back to life-sustaining oxygen. Now our basic and common duty is to have each person that we must grow as many plants as possible. Which is a source of clean air at his convenience? Polythene bags should be minimized and recycled items should be used so that the chances of becoming garbage are minimal. As a nation, we have to look after our responsibilities. It has to be controlled for the survival of its own and future generations.
