Abstract |
|
The level pollution in our environment in the last
twenty years has been a source of concern which
needs a serious and tactical approach, if not our
environmental health status will be in jeopardy.
These media were; Air, land, water and noise. The
pollutant when injected into the biosphere in
greater quantities affected the functioning of
ecosystem and exercised adverse effects on plants,
animals and humans. Here, information where sourced
from internet journals and available text. Then
conclusion, recommendation and control were made.
Thus, it is recommended that international standard
be established for contents of potentially toxic
elements in industrial effluent. Also hazards
associated with environmental pollution can be
controlled by having information about the
concentration of pollutant and measurement of
biological oxygen demand. (B.O.D). In short,
management practice must be taken into consideration
with sound ecological principle and man must have
greater understanding and appreciation of these
principles.
