Pollution
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
Pollution is what happens when human waste enters the environment faster than it can be broken down or absorbed. Sometimes it is obvious, like oil on a beach; sometimes it is invisible, like the carbon dioxide warming the planet or the nitrates that secretly suffocate a river by feeding it too well.
In this lesson you will describe the effects of sewage, fertilisers and non-biodegradable plastics, and explain how methane and carbon dioxide drive the enhanced greenhouse effect and climate change. You will also work through eutrophication step by step, the surprising process by which adding nutrients to water ends up killing everything in it.
Ebumnobi
- Describe the effects of untreated sewage and excess fertiliser on aquatic ecosystems
- Describe the effects of non-biodegradable plastics, in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems
- Describe the sources and effects of pollution of the air by methane and carbon dioxide, limited to: the enhanced greenhouse effect and climate change
- [Supplement] Explain the process of eutrophication of water, limited to: increased availability of nitrate and other ions increased growth of producers increased decomposition after death of producers increased aerobic respiration by decomposers reduction in dissolved oxygen death of organisms requiring dissolved oxygen in water
