WHAT IS POLLUTION AND
WHO ARE THE POLLUTERS?
BY SHIRLEY McFADDEN
Pollution began with the advent
of development in this country.
Probably one of the first forms
of pollution by early settlers was
the erection of saw mills on our
many streams. The sawdust from
the mills was deposited into the
streams killing the fish. As the
country continued to develop.
cities began to gather mostly in
the area of streams, or in close
location to large bodies. of water,,
As these cities progressed.,
sewage, various industrial
wastes, and chemicals were
dumped directly into our
waterways. In fact some of the
larger cities bordering on the
ocean actually deliver garbage by
special boats into the sea,
The pulp and paper industry
with the wide use of chemical
bleaches have polluted and killed
all the stream life in our creeks!
Due to new agriculture techniques
enormous amounts of fertilizer,
weed and insect spray have done
much to the harmful
contamination of waterways. Our
own Department of Highways by
the use of calcium chloride and
salt has lately raised the salt
content of our rivers and lakes.
As a result, we have ill-smelling
and tasting chemical and bacteria
ridden water to drink, which could
cause poor health and even death.
Another element involved in
pollution is air. One of the first
indications of air pollution was
the burning of large quantities of
coal for heating homes, buildings,
power plants, locomotives and
other uses. With the use of the
automobile, trucks and diesel
locomotives, air pollution
increased.
In recent years, the burning of
low grade fuel by jet aircraft has
added to the problem, Heavy
industrial development in this
country, such as smelting, oil
refitting, chemical producing
plants have added many harmful
poisonous Chemicals to our
atmosphere. in addition to this
process of burning various fuels,
large quantities of oxygen are
consumed. Finally, this type of
air pollution means that we have
dirty, smoky, chemically
poisonous low oxygen count air
which we must breathe, This is
very injurious to our health also!
There is also another kind of
pollution less common to the
public. We live in an ever
increasing noisy environment. In
the streets and highways you have
the constant roar of internal
combustion engines, screaming
brakes, and the general rumble of
the traffic,
In the buildings, air
conditioning equipment hums
away steadily. Industrial noises
occur in mines, foundries and in
almost every factory to a degree
that conversation is almost
impossible. In the air, we have
ear-splitting . sounds of jet
aircrafts. In the homes is the
ringing of phones, the
entertainment provided on T.V.
with its unexpected sound effects
assisted by record players,
radios and ,other home
appliances. It has been known for
a long time that certain noises
damage the hearing capabilities
of humans.
Many years ago when numerous
creatures including man himself,
roamed throughout the land,
nature did a wonderful job of
keeping the whole environment
clean. As man, the destroyer,
began to utilize the great things on
earth, he developed various
wastes which he scattered about
the face of the earth and air and
water thus creating a situation
commonly referred to today as
POLLUTION?
