With the development of societies and technology, new threats to the planet also arise. Thinking he is doing his best, man is destroying his home, the Earth, polluting the soil, air and water. The main causes of air pollution are: the burning of fossil fuels; agriculture and livestock production with the consequent emission of gases such as methane and the burning used in agriculture and forest clearing, which release carbon dioxide. The causes of soil pollution: the excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture and livestock; industries that pollute the soil, such as oil refineries, chemical, tanning and textile factories and open-air garbage disposal. The causes of water pollution: waste discharges from the sewage and sanitation system that are not properly treated; the deposit of garbage in rivers, seas and oceans; oil spillage and contamination of underground water with chemical and toxic products.
