What are some of the effects of human activities on the environment?
1. Exhaust emissions from vehicles
A large amount of exhaust from transport vehicles which contains a high

proportion of pollutants is emitted in big cities. This causes the air quality to
deteriorate and directly affect public health.
2. Waste from factories
 Many industrial factories release chemical waste into water sources, which
can destroy aquatic ecosystems in many places. This not only has an impact
on the survival of aquatic creatures but also pollutes the drinking water for
humans.
3. Plastic waste incineration
 Plastic waste incineration also reduces air quality. In fact, the vast amount
of daily waste are made of plastic which are non – biodegradable and can
release pollutants such as methane or carbon dioxide if burned in landfills.
4. Cutting down trees
 People are cutting down trees to make way for industrial factories and
