Land pollution

Land pollution, caused by the improper disposal of waste, is becoming an increasingly urgent issue. Solid and liquid waste generated from human activities often ends up contaminating the land, which severely impacts soil health and disrupts ecosystems. When toxic chemicals are dumped onto the ground, they seep into the soil, where they can be absorbed by plant roots. This not only damages the plants but also poses risks to the entire food chain and human health. It is crucial that we take immediate steps to manage waste more effectively and reduce land pollution to protect our environment and future generations.
