Pollution has become a major threat to all living beings (humans included) and planet earth. While production of essential medicine and food is necessary for living, its' being done at a hefty bad impact to atmosphere, ground and water sources. The smoke coming from machines involved in production and the solid and liquid waste emerging from these processes are polluting the planet Earth as a whole. Similarly in the case of automobiles and other pollutant emitting machines like air conditioners and so on (Use of single use plastic ''Et. al'' ). The major question is, How do each and everyone among ourselves play a positive role in minimising pollution.
POLLUTION REDUCTION METHODS FROM INDUSTRIES, VEHICLES, MACHINES
Industrial pollution reduction
cleaner production methods
Minimising usage of hazardous or less toxic chemicals with safer ones during chemical or other processes.
Utilizing newer, more efficient technologies that produce less waste and emissions
Diligent waste management
Separating different waste types to facilitate recycling and proper disposal / re-use
Waste-to-Energy Technologies: Utilizing technologies like incineration or anaerobic digestion to recover energy from waste.
Incineration is the process of burning waste (after segregating) at high temperatures in a set of large heating appliances which reduces the volume, mass of the waste and then recovering usable materials, and the energy created can also be used for generating electricity.

Treating organic waste through biodegradation and adding it to the soil
Using landfills as a last resort for waste that cannot be recycled or composted.
Pollution Control Technologies (Air, Water & Land)
Air Pollution Control Systems
Implementing advanced filtration systems and air pollution control technologies to capture and treat pollutants.
Wastewater Treatment Systems
The most important one is the re-usage of Industrial wastewater by removing pollutants using several methods which are done in stages, like sedimentation, filtration, ion exchange, reverse osmosis, distillation, uv treatment and so on.
Containment Methods: Industries dealing with hazardious chemicals should have backup containment measures, so that they are used in case of any spill, or breakdown, preventing them from getting mixed into nearby land and water sources or in case internal other processes also.
Bioremediation: Using natural processes like phytoremediation to remove pollutants
Thermal Desorption: Watch Video
Optimization of energy for high efficiency
Conducting regular environmental health checks to find out polluting sources and study the degree to which they are having a negative impact on water, air and land.
Pollution control must be given a high priority
Prime end result must be to reduce percentage of emissions, waste generation, and most importantly put a break to ejection of pollutants into the environment (drainages (land and water sources), air)
Unite with everyone in their respective sectors to take accountability for good environmental health responsibility
