China and the World Suffer from the Use of Nonrenewable Resources,

Pollution continues to pose an enormous threat to residents of urban cities worldwide. In the August 2008 Monthly Update, it is stated that approximately 800,000 deaths each year can be attributed to outdoor air pollution, making pollution the single most harmful environmental hazard to human health in urban areas (Kallman). The fact that pollution kills hundreds of thousands of people each year alone portrays just how dangerous living in these conditions can be. Kallman writes about a study which proves an increase in upper respiratory diseases, cardiovascular mortality, respiratory mortality, and low birth weights when exposed to air pollutants (August 2008: Monthly Update). These can be very serious diseases and complications which, when contracted, can lead to death or very serious illnesses. There

Globally, many countries are increasingly feeling the effects of environmental degradation. This has been occasioned by the increasingly evident effects of poor environmental conservation policy. There are currently taking the brunt of environmental degradation that has been occasioned by rapid the industrialization that has occurred both within and out of the country. “Air pollution has been at fault for a significant portion of the country’s environmental problems. Studies have identified the country’s economic boom as major contributor to this (Jitendra and Tanvi, 42)”. In East Asia, yellow dust it calls “Asian dust” is the biggest issue, which is mostly influenced by China’s industrialization and coal burning electrical generating plants. The main issue concerning South Korea and Japan is the air pollution caused by China's rapid economic growth crossing the boundaries into these two countries, it is blown from China to Korea and Japan causing hazardous air pollution. There causes many problems, it occurs respiratory problems, an increase in incidence of acid rain, highway accidents, and forcing many residents to stay home. Also, dust will enter a human’s mouth and organ which will cause respiratory problems through inhalation. “Air pollutants are gaseous or particulate matter which that have an impact on human health and natural ecosystems” (Lee, Adeel, 134).

Poor air quality is associated with some health issues from the short-term problems to severe

Air pollution, together with littering, are causing many problems in our large, industrial citties today

Air pollution in China has been a very serious issue and a health crisis, China is so heavily populated that everything that people do on a normal day is leads to air pollution. China’s use of coal is the major cause for China air problem and doesn't look like it is going to be slowing down anytime soon without the help of the government. “Coal is the major cause, and will continue to be the country's biggest source of energy and air pollution. Although billions have been pledged for renewable energy, 200 new coal power plants will be built across the country”(Charney). With China’s large use of coal they need to focus on cutting down on production and focus shutting down coal factories and moving towards not using coal at all. China’s population has faced many health risks with the air pollution problem, one of the most common ones are respiratory

Imagine every time you breathed that you are inhaling toxic particles that can damage your body, Pollution in South Asia is one of the main causes of death. Each year 2.4 million people die due to this issue. Every single day 25 million people inhale unsafe particles. If you breath in the kind of particles that are in the air it can lead to lower respiratory infections, heart diseases, lung diseases, and cancer. According to Yale Date Driven, “In 2013, more than 20,000 premature deaths were blamed on the country’s foul air” (Yale). According to Triple Pundit, “The burning of fossil fuels, biomass, as well as diesel transportation, factories, power plants, and dust are the cause of air pollution” (Vijayaraghavan). India lacks water treatment, which causes the water to get polluted by sewage. That same water is used for the farmers irrigation. The poor water quality causes

Asthma is a respiratory condition that causes one to experience difficulty breathing. Coming into contact with polluted air is one way to develop this disease. People must be more conscious of the threat air pollution poses to their lungs. It is their responsibility to keep the environment clean for their own sake. Automobiles are prime contributors to the corruption of oxygen. Steps must be taken away from this method of transportation ascribed to the severity of the repercussions. Traffic and smoke emissions must be controlled to prevent further outbreak of asthma cases.

Rapid urbanization has caused a serious environmental problem especially air water pollution. Long history of industrialization has left cities dealing with a number of environmental issues. Air, land, and water pollution threatens to erode quality of life for many urban residents. Megacity, New York City has an increased number of cars due to the population and economic growth. Thus, car and traffic contribute to the air pollution, which poses major health effects due to the presence to heavy metals in car exhaust. Water pollutions is also another risk factor because water resources are becoming increasingly needed and millions of people are affected by unsanitary water. A city like New York, with an astonishing 8.5 million people, contribute to the water and air pollution immensely. Cuts to services has resulted in a gradual breakdown of urban infrastructure and services. This contributes to water and air pollution, ineffective waste management and environmental

It is always common that air that we breather within various indoor environments have different particles and gaseous contaminants. Upon these contaminants affecting human health and performance they change to be known as indoor pollutants, for example school setting commonly experience this environment. Health and performance in school is also affected by indoor temperature and relative humidity on influence of the airborne level of molds as well as bacteria.

There are multiple of ways to prevent Air pollution in China, such as moving factories away from the cities, encourage clean-burning fuel, and cut back introducing of new private cars. Here is a list of the easiest ways you could help to prevent air pollution getting worse:

The recent development of water supply projects in the cities and townships has not met the increasing demands of urban population and huge investment is necessary to improve water supply facilities in the cities. 212.Water drainage Most urban centers are served by various forms of open drainage such as ditches and street gutters. Only a small percentage has access to sewerage systems. The lack of wastewater treatment in the cities constitutes a major health hazard during periods of storm and flooding, when coliform and fecal pollutants from human wastes are easily spread through contaminated floodwaters.Water logging problems in the main cities are due to the dilapidated drainage systems and an aging culvert system, parts of which dated since the French administration. The inadequacy of drainage systems causes flood in many areas in the cities and all the wastes flow together with the rainy waters into canals and lakes. Maintenance of existing systems has not kept pace with the increasing influx of population. 213 Water pollution. Water pollution is the most serious environmental problem and with a growing urbanization, many cities are ill equipped to provide their growing populations the safe water and sanitation they need. a / Sources of water pollution. It may come from: . wastewater from industries and minor handicrafts which have

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) states that air pollution is the result of human activities and natural processes on the environment, which causes certain gases to be released into the air to interact with other substances to form acid rain, the greenhouse effect and ozone hole on global scale.

Air, is one of the most substantial source to mankind and our planet. While it exists, so does everything else along. However, in today’s epidemic, there has been certain factors that have increased in understanding whether the air we breathe today is healthy or not? Is it doing more harm than we thought? In other words, the health risks against air pollution have risen in the past few decades; all from what you may ask? Well, it could be for various factors and evaluations; either environmental or materialistic. Pollution is a major public health crisis in the world. (Friis, 2012). This is one of the conflicts that contribute to various aspects of an individual’s life, whether they may realize it or not. In this paper will include the sources that cause pollution with the effects it cause as well as policies on the regulation of air pollution.

”One would believe that with such a staggering increase in sewage, from thirty-eight thousand million liters per day in 2009 to sixty-two thousand million liters per day today, that the sewage treatment plants would increase their capacity, but surprisingly, have not (Vashishtha 2015).” Even in 2009, India did not have the treatment capacity to provide adequate services. Now, with sewage doubled, the capacity to treat the polluted water has remained constant. ”According to India 's Central Pollution Control Board, the country has an installed capacity to treat only about 30% of the household waste it generates – the rest is released into open drains or straight into the ground (Balasubramaniam, 2014).” This waste water is then transferred through natural and man-made irrigation and into fresh water systems. Freshwater systems that flow through villages and towns that are incapable of establishing a way to treat the water. These towns and villages, most of the time, do not know that the water is even polluted. The population here then develops disease that significantly impacts the entire village and town. ““Faulty perceptions on water treatment, lack of knowledge about health hazards associated with drinking unsafe water, false sense of protection from locally available water, resistance to change in taste or odor of water and a lack of support from male

Air quality is a crucial component in determining the welfare of every living organism. With the developing worldwide trends of population growth and global issues, the magnitude of reduced air quality is becoming increasingly prevalent on a worldwide scale [1]. Realistic alternatives for major emission sources and feasible action plans need to occur globally. If it does not, society has no one to blame but themselves upon the eventual destruction of planet earth and all of the life that it sustains, which includes the human race.
