POLLUTION CAUSE AND EFFECT TABLE
| Type of Pollution | CAUSES | EFFECTS | PICTURE |
| Air | Factories and cars let out fumes and chemicals in smoke polluting the air. | Pollutants in the air make it hard for people to breathe causing lung disease. When it rains the chemicals in the air cause acid rain hurting the animals and plants. | |
| Land | People throw litter on the ground. Many people don't recycle and throw away so much garbage that we have landfills growing in our cities. | Many animals eat the litter and become sick and can die. Litter laying around covers the land from the sun and the grass and plants can die. | |
