Rav, Simrit, Jon.
How To Help:
Energy Consumption: You can very simple reduce your energy consumption by doing many things such as; changing your light bulbs to energy saving ones, making sure your house is fully insulated to keep in heat, cool and heat your house efficiently.. and many more.
Toxic Waste: stop eating canned food, avoid plastic waterbottles, read makeup ingredients carefully, reduce stress, investigate food allergies, use natural household cleaners, etc.
Noise Pollution: Create a quiet room in your house, turn down the volume of music/TV/etc., soundproof windows, research the area to figure out if a lot of noise occurs, etc.
Noise Pollution:
-Noise pollution takes place when there is either excessive amount of noise or an unpleasant sound that causes temporary disruption in the natural balance.
-Causes: Industrialization, poor urban planning, social events, transportation, construction activities, household chores, etc.
-Effects: Hearing problems, health issues, sleeping disorders, cardiovascular issues, trouble communicating, effect on wildlife, etc.
Toxic Wastes:
Increased Energy Consumption:
-The waste may be liquid, solid, or sludge and contain chemicals, heavy metals, radiation, dangerous pathogens, or other toxins. Even households generate hazardous waste from items such as batteries, used computer equipment, and leftover paints or pesticides.
-Causes: Chemicals' being dumped together is the most common cause of toxic waster and this is done by both industries and regular people. Some industries have been found dumping waste in areas that they shouldn't and it mixes with other things and it causes huge problems.
-Effects: Toxic wastes obviously effect humans negatively, in which technology is just simply booming to find ways to cure the syndrome that goes with it. Technology is a useful resource to lead scientists on a path to find sources that may be applied in order to minimize this horrible creation on our planet. This is how technology intervenes with the idea of toxic waste.
- Energy is obviously used all over the world and the usage is constantly increasing.
- Canada consumes the 7th largest amount of energy in the world which is a lot considering the population.
- Effects: The use and cost of energy affects each of us every day of our lives. Many issues arise from the use of energy: greenhouse gas emissions, acid rain, climate change and the dependency on depleting supplies of fossil fuels
