Top Ten Polluted Areas In The World: A Waste Disposal Dilemma
Industrial and chemical wastes are the highest contributors of pollution. It is also the main reason why severe illnesses like cancer attack the society. In order to eliminate these problems, proper waste disposal and hazardous waste management should be implemented.
Pollution causes millions of deaths annually and billions of diseases every month. In 2007, Blacksmith Institute listed the 10 most polluted cities in the world. The first in the list is Linfen, China which affect more than three million people. Because of the pollution, people cannot even put hang their laundry outside the house because it will only be covered in coal and soot from abysmal air pollution. China, India, and Russia are the three countries included in the most polluted areas in the world. Sulfuric air, black snow, and numerous illnesses linger in these countries and this is because of factories that discard all their hazardous wastes in bodies of water and in the air. When these highly toxic chemicals muddled up in water and air, water contamination will emerge. Drinking water, instead of easing our thirst, will cause sickness and death. Several illnesses include Cholera, Hepatitis A, and Typhoid Fever.
Other polluted areas are :
Sumgayit, Azerbaijan
Tianying, China
Sukinda, India
Vapi, India
La Oroya, Peru
Dzerzhinsk, Russia
Norilsk. Russia
Chernobyl, Ukraine
Kabwe, Zambia
If Blacksmith Institute recorded the most polluted areas in the world, they also listed the cleanest areas and these are the following:
Calgary, Canada
Honolulu, United States
Helsinki, Finland
Ottawa, Canada
Minneapolis, USA
Oslo, Norway
Stockholm, Sweden
Zurich, Switzerland
Katsuyama, Japan
Berne, Switzerland
Montreal, Canada
Vancouver, Canada
Boston, USA
Piitsburgh, USA
Nrnberg, Germany
Geneva, Switzerland
Calgary is considered as the fastest rising cities in the world because of they are one of the primary producers of oil and gas, yet they are still considered by Forbes as the cleanest place in the world. They have a proper waste management facilities and auto recyclers to avoid pollution. Canada, USA, and Europe topped Forbes' cleanest areas of 2007.
A large portion of the earth is now exposed to ultraviolet rays because of damaged ozone layer. Because of the unjust actions done by industrialists, they not only pollute the environment but also create serious health hazards. Breast cancer, prostate cancer and childhood brain disorders are increasing at an upsetting rate and the increasing rates of contamination and pollution have only furthered these health problems. Pollution is also one of the reasons for the rise in certain maladies like autism and learning disabilities. Capitalism is more important rather than health awareness among the industrialists. Their only concern is the progression of their income, while many people suffer from their perilous wastes.
Recyclers help a lot in eliminating wastes. With this, we can make a better and safer place for the next generation. The price for disposal services might be a little expensive, but it is highly important and essential to preserve the environment and prevent it from being contaminated. We must remember that there is only one world fit for survival.
