A major discussion topic today is pollution, but what is it? Pollution is what is destroying our atmosphere, crops, and land. Pollutants put holes in the ozone layer, causing global temperature change. Crops are contaminated from using polluted carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. The land is deteriorating due to extreme changes in climate. But what other effects does it have on the earth or on individuals? Is there any way to prevent or even stop pollution? Pollution is destroying the earth and the atmosphere, but some people are ignorant to the fact that it also affects them.
