GENERAL SAFETY PROCEDURES FOR INDIVIDUAL

• One must critically and rationally evaluate the severity of the


emergency and determine what requires to be done immediately. •
One must look for additional help by calling up the emergency toll-free
number, which would help the caller reach an official or “dispatcher.”
• It is recommended that one should call from a GPS (global
positioning system) equipped phone so that the emergency dispatcher
is able to track the location, even if the caller is unable to speak.
• One must assess the immediate threats, for example, in case a
person is severely injured from a running machine, the machine must
be turned off immediately to prevent others from getting hurt as well.

INDUSTRY POLLUTION

Form of pollution that can trace its immediate source to


industrial practices is known as industrial pollution.

Most of the pollution on the planet can be traced back


to industries of some kind.

Every nation is affected, and there are people who are


working tirelessly to increase awareness and advocate for
change.
Empathy Define

Ideate Prototype

Test Launch
CAUSES OF INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION
1. Lack of Policies to Control Pollution
Lack of effective policies and poor enforcement drive allowed many industries
to bypass laws made by the pollution control board, which resulted in mass-scale
pollution that affected the lives of many people.
2. Unplanned Industrial Growth
In most industrial townships, unplanned growth took place wherein those
companies flouted rules and norms and polluted the environment with both air
and water pollution.
3. Use of Outdated Technologies
Most industries still rely on old technologies to produce products that
generate a large amount of waste. To avoid high cost and expenditure, many Empathy Define

companies still make use of traditional technologies to produce high-end products. Ideate Prototype

Test Launch
CAUSES OF INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION
4. Presence of a Large Number of Small Scale Industries
Many small scale industries and factories that don’t have enough capital and
rely on government grants to run their day-to-day businesses often escape
environment regulations and release a large number of toxic gases in the
atmosphere.

5. Inefficient Waste Disposal


Water pollution and soil pollution are often caused directly due to inefficiency
in the disposal of waste. Long term exposure to polluted air and water causes
chronic health problems, making the issue of industrial pollution into a severe one.
It also lowers the air quality in surrounding areas, which causes many Empathy Define

respiratory disorders. Ideate Prototype

Test Launch
CAUSES OF INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION
6. Leaching of Resources From Our Natural World
Industries do require a large amount of raw material to make them into finished products. This
requires the extraction of minerals from beneath the earth.
The extracted minerals can cause soil pollution when spilled on the earth.
Leaks from vessels can cause oil spills that may prove harmful to marine life.

7. Natural Resource Use


Raw material is a must for industries, which often requires them even pulling out underground
elements. One of the most common forms of leaching from natural resources is fracking for oil.

When industries extract minerals, the process causes soil pollution and also causes oil leaks

and spills that are harmful and even deadly to people and animals. Ideate Prototype

Test Launch
EFFECTS OF INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION ON OUR
ENVIRONMENT

1. Water Pollution
The effects of industrial pollution are far-reaching and liable to affect the
ecosystem for many years to come. Most industries require large amounts of water
for their work. When involved in a series of processes, the water comes into
contact with heavy metals, harmful chemicals, radioactive waste, and even organic
sludge.
These are either dumped into open oceans or rivers. As a result, many of our
water sources have a high amount of industrial waste in them, which seriously
impacts the health of our ecosystem. The same water is then used by farmers for
irrigation purposes, which affects the quality of food that is produced.
Water pollution has already rendered many groundwater resources useless
for humans and wildlife. It can at best be recycled for further usage in industries.

2. Soil Pollution
Soil pollution is creating problems in agriculture and
destroying local vegetation. It also causes chronic health issues to
the people that come in contact with such soil on a daily basis.
3. Air Pollution
Air pollution has led to a steep increase in various illnesses,
and it continues to affect us on a daily basis. With so many small,
mid and large scale industries coming up, air pollution has taken
a toll on the health of the people and the environment. Empathy

4. Wildlife Extinction
By and large, the issue of industrial pollution shows us that it causes natural rhythms
and patterns to fail, meaning that the wildlife is getting affected in a severe manner.
Habitats are being lost, species are becoming extinct, and it is harder for the environment
to recover from each natural disaster.
Major industrial accidents like oil spills, fires, the leakage of radioactive materials and
damage to property are harder to clean-up as they have a higher impact in a shorter
timeframe.
5. Global Warming
With the rise in industrial pollution, global warming has been increasing at a steady
pace. Smoke and greenhouse gases are being released by industries into the air, which
causes an increase in global warming. Empathy Define

Melting of glaciers, extinction of polar bears, floods, tsunamis, hurricanes are few of the Ideate Prototype

effects of global warming. Test Launch


EFFECTS OF INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION ON OUR
ENVIRONMENT

6. Biodiversity Loss
Industrial pollution continues to cause significant damage to the earth and all of its
inhabitants due to chemical wastes, pesticides, radioactive materials etc. It affects wildlife
and ecosystems and disrupts natural habitats. Animals are becoming extinct, and habitats
are being destroyed.
The increasing liquid, solid and hazardous wastes undermine ecosystem health and
impact on food, water and health security. Industrial pollution disasters, including oil spills
and radioactive leakage, take years to decades to clean up.

7. Atmospheric Deposition
Cadmium enrichment of soil can also be associated with industrial pollution. Industrial
effluents are commonly discharged to surface water drainage systems after clarification in
tailing ponds. Recent investigations have disclosed very high concentrations of Cd in the
Empathy Define

overbank and bottom sediments of the rivers. Test Launch


WAYS TO CONTROL OR REDUCE INDUSTRIAL
POLLUTION
The issue of industrial pollution is critical to every nation on the planet. With the increase of the harmful
effects of industrial pollution, there are many agencies and individuals who are working to reduce carbon
footprints and live and work in an eco-friendly way.
1. Source Control
Adopting new technology, efficient training of employees for safe use and development of better technology
for disposal of waste, and being more conscientious about the use of raw materials can help control industrial
pollution at the source.
2. Recycling
Recycling as much polluted water in the industries as possible by increased recycling efforts to reduce
industrial pollution.
3. Cleaning of Resources
Organic methods should be adopted to clean the water and soil, such as using microbes that use heavy metals
and waste as feed naturally. Cooling rooms or bins need to be developed that allow industries to recycle the
water they need instead of pushing it back into the natural water source it came from.
4. Industry Site Selection Empathy Define

Consideration of location of the sites and the potential impact on the surrounding environment can help Ideate Prototype

reduce harmful consequences. Test Launch


WAYS TO CONTROL OR REDUCE INDUSTRIAL
POLLUTION
5. Proper Treatment of Industrial Waste
By developing and implementing adequate treatment facilities for handling industrial waste and
proper habits can reduce pollution.
6. Rebuilding Habitats and Afforestation
Rebuilding habitats by planting more trees and plants can help give wildlife back their homes, and
the trees can help purify the air with enough oxygen, and act as a buffer against the environment.
7. Stricter Laws and Enforcement
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) works to correct the damage from industrial pollution.
There should be more stringent rules to take action against the companies who do not follow proper
protocol and more significant rewards for the companies who operate properly. It requires creating
policies that prevent misuse of land.
8. Regular Environmental Impact Assessments
Being a responsible company or industry should require regular environmental impact assessments
that are reported for evaluation. If there are harmful impacts discovered during the review, Empathy Define

necessary actions to correct the negative consequences should be developed and enforced.
