Industrial Pollution Conclusion:
Industrial technology uses a dizzying array of chemicals to keep
modern life humming. These chemicals after fulfilling their roles in production
end up accumulating in the atmosphere. One of the main problems is that public awareness is lagging
behind the increasingly complex problem of pollution. The
pollution menace and environmental disaster has been a long time in the making.
Ecological concerns have been shunted aside in the rush towards
industrialization and growth. Only now is the full extent of the ecological
disaster emerging. The pollution menace does more than just degrade the quality
of life; it dramatically cripples and shortens the life of human beings.
Community health physicians calculate that illnesses traceable to environmental
pollution account for more than 30% of the country's health budget. Officials
estimate that one out of 20 people in the country now dies of
environmentally-induced causes. The mass media and government should work on
spreading awareness regarding the issue and it is high time the government
takes a stern position in preventing the hazardous situation.
