Sound pollution

Also called noise pollution, this happens when there’s too much loud noise in an area. It can come from traffic, construction, or loud music. Too much noise can hurt our ears and make us feel stressed.

 

Tree-plantation

This means planting new trees in areas where trees are needed. It helps clean the air, provides homes for animals, and can prevent soil erosion. People plant trees in forests, parks, or along streets.

 

Conservation of forests and their wild life.

This means protecting forests and the animals that live in them. It involves stopping people from cutting too many trees and protecting animals from hunting. We do this by making laws, creating national parks, and teaching people about the importance of forests.

 

Damage due to heavy rainfall

When it rains too much, it can cause problems like floods. Floods can damage homes, roads, and crops. They can also cause landslides in hilly areas. Too much rain can also lead to water pollution as it washes dirt and chemicals into rivers and lakes.
