Mention 3 that gases contribute most significantly to air pollution, what are some of their effects? 


Five major gases contribute to air pollution: CO₂, from fossil fuels and deforestation, drives global warming; CH₄, from agriculture and landfills, is a potent greenhouse gas; NOₓ, from vehicles and industry, causes smog, acid rain, and respiratory issues; SO₂, from burning coal and oil, leads to acid rain and lung irritation; and O₃ (ground-level ozone), formed by NOₓ and VOCs in sunlight, harms health and crops. These gases worsen climate change and damage ecosystems.

Noise pollution refers to harmful or excessive levels of noise in the environment, which can negatively impact human health, wildlife, and ecosystems. It is caused by activities such as transportation (cars, airplanes, trains), industrial processes, construction, and urban development. Common effects of noise pollution include:

On Humans: Hearing loss, stress, sleep disturbances, and reduced productivity.

On Wildlife: Disruption of communication, migration, and mating patterns, particularly in animals like birds and marine mammals.

What is leachate? Mention the specific risk of leachate in landfills, clearly mentioning the term infiltration and the consequences this can have on other ecosystems

Leachate is the liquid that forms when water percolates through waste materials, such as in a landfill, dissolving and carrying with it various toxic substances, chemicals, and microorganisms. This liquid often contains hazardous components like heavy metals, organic pollutants, and pathogens.

Infiltration... contamination of water sources, soil degradation and pollution, harm to aquatic ecosystems
