We provide study material, notes, assignments & projects for "ES 506C Environmental Pollution " taught in M.Sc Environmental Science to help students prepare for their exams and score good marks. Students can read from the website or can download notes pdf provided for free.

"Environmental Pollution" offers a comprehensive exploration of the causes, effects, and mitigation strategies related to various forms of pollution that adversely impact our planet. Students will delve into the sources and pathways of pollution, including air, water, soil, and noise pollution, as well as emerging issues such as plastic pollution and light pollution.

What you'll learn

1. Air Pollution: Students will delve into the sources of air pollution, including industrial emissions, vehicle exhaust, and agricultural practices, and examine the pollutants they generate, such as particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and volatile organic compounds.

2. Water Pollution: Students will explore the sources of water pollution, including industrial discharges, agricultural runoff, and urban sewage, and investigate the pollutants they introduce into aquatic ecosystems, such as heavy metals, pesticides, and pathogens.

3. Soil Pollution: Students will investigate the sources of soil pollution, including industrial activities, agricultural practices, and improper waste disposal, and analyse the contaminants they introduce into the soil, such as heavy metals, pesticides, and organic pollutants.

4. Noise Pollution: Students will delve into the sources of noise pollution, including transportation, industrial activities, and urbanisation, and examine the effects of excessive noise on human health and well-being, as well as wildlife and ecosystems.
