to breathe and healthy water for the people around. It also does not escape, fertile soil for
harvesting vegetables and basic necessities so that everyone can live healthily and properly.
But now, to get everything that can be considered a healthy environment is very difficult,
especially in urban areas and densely populated. All of that is due to pollution caused by
activities around the current environment. Take health from the environment slowly and
surely. The following are causes of pollution.

The first cause of pollution is smoke from motorized vehicles. Where almost all
residents in any city use vehicles that produce carbon monoxide fumes that make the air turns
dirty and pollute. No doubt, the air pollution is getting worse with the smoke from industrial
plants. Second, industrial and household wastes are disposed of without processing, waste
that is directly disposed of and released into the water. Third, plastic waste and other hard
rubbish which are classified as difficult to decompose. These rubbish are usually disposed of
arbitrarily by irresponsible individuals so that they pollute the surrounding environment.

Pollution usually occurs due to the low awareness of people around the environment
to reduce and even recycle waste that can pollute the environment. This has a detrimental
effect on the environment in the form of pollution.

As an effect of air pollution which can cause various health problems due to
dangerous carbon produced by motor vehicles and industrial plants, and reduce visibility if
air pollution is so bad. Besides, the effect caused by pollution is water contaminated by waste
and garbage that causes water turn dirty and not feasible to be consumed even for use as
household needs. Other effects of pollution are soil contaminated by plastic or chemical
waste which causes the soil to lose its fertility. This has an impact on agriculture that is not
optimal in producing basic needs of the community.
 In conclusion, pollution is something that can damage the environment caused by
industrial activities, motor vehicles to dispose of littering without recycling, which can cause
pollution of the surrounding environment so that the environment is no longer healthy to live
in.
