The twin aim of industrial development along with conservation of the environment is not an impossible task. Comment on this statement.


Though Industrialisation is part of globalization we cannot ignore the harmful effect of it upon the environment is possible.

The effects of Industrialisation:


1. The pollutions namely air, water, thermal and Noise pollution are all caused due to industries. Hence, this fact cannot be overlooked and must be worked upon.


2. The pollutions have degraded the atmosphere and have led to global warming.


3. The increasing temperature has led to the melting of glaciers and rising sea level.


4. The health hazards have started deteriorating human capital.


5. Contaminated water has produced many deathly viruses.


The effects could be reduced simultaneously by the Industries:


1. The industries could minimize water usage and could reuse the water by recycling.


2. Rainwater harvesting to store the rainwater.


3. Treating hot water effluents before discharging into water bodies.


4. Less drawing of groundwater.


5. Fitting smokestacks to factories with an electrostatic precipitator to reduce air pollution.


6. Using oil or gases instead of coal in factories.


The above methods could be brought into practice in order to save the atmosphere from depleting and the environment from degradation.
