Pollution can be found in three places : Air, water and on land. That's everywhere!Human activities can release harmful or poisionous substances that can cause harm to humans, other animals and plants.
Cars and factories can release gases that pollute the air. Some of these dangerous gases are released when burning fossils fuels (if you do not know what a fossil fuel is look at the next page).
Agriculture (farms) and factories can release chemicals that pollute river, lakes and the sea.
This can kill animal and plant life living in these habitats.
Our weekly rubbish is taken and put into landfill sites. However, some people prefer to recycle their rubbish.
Even loud noise and too much light at night can be called pollution because they disturb people.
