Awareness Level

The study aims to identify the awareness level of Hunters related to making environmental mistakes in the Dukan lake - Sulaimaniyah Governorate. The study comminuted included all 177 respondents in the study area and the study sample included 62 respondents who randomly selected 35% of the study comminuted as well as the questionnaire by interview was used as a tool to collect the data then the questionnaire was shown to specialists in agricultural extension and fish breeders to achieve content validity. The data was collected and analyzed statistically by used statistical tools and SPSS version22. As well as the results showed that % 82.25 of respondents were aware related to making environmental mistakes in general within medium tends to low. Also, the awareness level of respondents related to fields of making mistakes that caused water pollution came the first rank in terms of relative importance with means of 30.11 degrees. Then comes Soil pollution with means of 19.88 degrees. Finally, Air pollution comes in the last rank with means of 19.45 degrees. Additionally, the results show that there is a correlation between the awareness level of respondents related to making environmental mistakes in the Dukan lake - Sulaimaniyah Governorate in general and variables: Age and Duration of fishing experience While there is no correlation between the awareness level of respondents related to making environmental mistakes in general and each of variables: Areas Used in fishing, Participation in training courses and Exposure to informational sources.

Ecological Behaviour

The present paper analyses a magnesite firm and its influence on the living environment due to air pollution, water pollution and soil pollution. The analysed firm is a producer of clinker and magnesite products that are exported to some big countries of the world. It is a lucrative firm with a profit achievement during the following period. But it must pay considerable fees for polluting the living environment and therefore it must accept several measures for improving ecological behaviour of the firm.

Artificial intelligence has become a large part of everyday life. The world is heading towards new heights of adaption of various decision support technologies. In the present era, the rate at which we are consuming natural finite resources and depleting them, through producing chemicals, soil pollution, water pollution, air pollution, etc., is destroying our ecosystem. We have tried several recycling methods to minimize wastage, but it is insignificant. Now there is a need to think about state-of-the-art technological support like artificial intelligence (AI). This chapter explores the prospects of artificial intelligence in the circular economy.

Environmental pollution problems in the copper industry are studied from the water pollution, air pollution and soil pollution. The threshold of copper industry access should be improved and elimination of three-high backward productivity should be accelerated to solve environmental contamination in the copper industry. Meanwhile, promoting of energy conservation and emission reduction and rational exploitation for natural resources also should be valued.

Toxic Substances

Soil pollution with plastics represents a great threat to plants, animals, but especially to humans, as a very small quantity of the plastic which is discarded daily is recycled or incinerated in waste facilities, much of it reaching landfills where their decomposition lasts up to 1000 years and during this time the toxic substances penetrate the soil and the water. If, initially, the pollution with plastics has been identified and recognized in the aquatic environment, recent studies show that plastics residues exist in huge quantities in the soil. The present study focuses on the analysis of factors that pollute soil, so the various studies that have been carried out claim that soil pollution with plastic is much higher and increases in an aggressive manner, being estimated to be 4 to 23 times higher than water pollution with plastics, and the accumulation of microplastics in the soil has a negative impact on soil biota. Thus, once the plastic material accumulates in the soil, it is assimilated to organic matter and the mineral substitutes of the soil and persists for several hundred years.

Negative Impacts

Although coal has powered the nation for generations and today offers well-paying jobs—often the best opportunities in more rural areas—coal negatively affects human health and the environment at every point in its life cycle: when it is mined, processed, transported, burned, and discarded (Freese, Clemmer, and Nogee 2008). Local communities— often low-income communities and/or communities of color—have for decades borne the brunt of these negative impacts, including air pollution, water pollution, and work- place injuries, illnesses, and fatalities.

The presence of dump stations around resident's houses besides resulting air pollution, it is also affectingthe cleanliness of water used by society to meet their daily needs. Location where we researched is at ex-Pasirimpun Dump Station, Karang Pamulang Village, Kecamatan Cicadas, Bandung. Although Pasirimpun Dump Station has been closed and turned function into Taman Abdi Negara, it is feared that there is a water pollution caused by leach zone. Geophysical measurements by geoelectric method are performed to prove the leaching zone. This study aims to determine the depth of the leaching zone, its position against the groundwater level, and what potential harm can caused by the leaching zone. The methodology that is used are direct observation, interviews, and literature studies. Our measurements is done by using schlumberger conguration and Induced Polarization (IP) method on morphology that tend to be at with a length of 141 meters stretch and a spaceof 3 meters. Groundwater faces are mapped to be correlated with the depth of the existing leaching zone. From the results of literature studies, there is a leaching zone in the area with a depth of about 30 meters. By knowing this leaching zone, we hope that there will be cooperation between government and society to avoidthe impacts of leaching zone on the water which they consumed. One way to know, is to drill deeper water level from the leach zone.

Negative Effect

Air and water pollution have detrimental effects on health, while physical activity opportunities have a positive relationship. The purpose of this study was to explore whether physical activity opportunities moderate the relationships among air and water pollution, and measures of health. Aggregate data were collected at the county level in the United States (n = 3104). Variables included the mean daily density of fine particle matter (air pollution), reported cases of health-related drinking water violations (water pollution), subjective ratings of poor or fair health (overall health), the number of physically and mentally unhealthy (physical and mental health, respectively), and the percentage of people living in close proximity to a park or recreation facility (access to physical activity). Air and water pollution have a significant positive effect on all measures of residents’ poor health, while physical activity opportunities only have a negative effect on overall health and physical health. Access to physical activity only moderates the relationship between air pollution and all health outcomes. Since physical activity behavior can be more rapidly changed than some causes of pollution, providing the resident population with better access to physical activity can represent an effective tool in environmental health policy.

The nitrogen balance made on a national, regional and/or farm basis provides valuable information about the surplus of nitrogen in agricultural production. This surplus of nitrogen is dispersed into the environment, causing water pollution with nitrate and other compounds of nitrogen, air pollution with ammonia and nitrous oxide. The nitrogen balance in Polish agriculture has undergone vast changes during the last few years, according to economic and social transformations after the collapse of the communist system. The surplus of nitrogen decreased from about 90 kg N/ha in 1989 to about 60 kg N/ha in 1991. More than 30% of nitrogen surplus is volatilized into the atmosphere in the form of ammonia, while similar amounts find their way into the water, particularly groundwater. The amounts of nitrogen losses due to denitrification are difficult to estimate.
