The Skin-Climate Connection: How Global Warming Affects Your Skin and What You Can Do
As you know, climate change is a global issue affecting us all. But what is climate change? And why is the climate changing?
Our earth’s climate has been rapidly changing over the past 120 years. Climate change is actually normal; it takes thousands of years for our earth’s climate to change. Now, due to the increase in human activity, there are high levels of fossil fuel burning. A lot of industries are producing gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide as waste products, which is making the climate warmer.
Understanding Pollution: Causes, Effects, and Solutions
When we release harmful chemicals or goods into the environment, we harm living things and the natural world. This is called pollution. These pollutants can be chemicals, real things, or even energy forms such as light, noise, or heat. Several things can cause pollution, such as manufacturing processes, transportation, farming methods, and poor trash dumping. It can have local effects on the area around it or world effects on the environment and temperature as a whole. Types of forms of pollution. These are the three most common types of pollution.Water, air, and land are the three major elements.And others are There are various forms of pollution such as litter, noise, plastic, soil, radioactive, thermal, light, and visual. So firstly I want to explain Water pollution So what is water pollution? Water pollution can be defined as the contamination of water bodies. Cause of water pollution: Industrial and agricultural effluents contaminate water bodies such as rivers, lakes, oceans, groundwater, and aquifers, causing water pollution. Effects of Water Pollution: Water is an important element of human health, so polluted water directly affects the human body. Water pollution causes a variety of diseases, such as typhoid, cholera, hepatitis, cancer, and so on. Water pollution damages the plants and aquatic animals present in the river by reducing the oxygen content of the water. Therefore, it is crucial that we, along with the government, take proactive measures and formulate policies to prevent this pollution. Land Pollution Land pollution is defined as the introduction of harmful materials (pollutants) into land or underground. Causes of Land Pollution. The main cause of land pollution is the improper disposal of waste materials, such as plastic, chemicals, and hazardous substances. Effects of Land Pollution. Land pollution is a serious problem that impacts humans, plants, animals, Earth, and water resources. Land pollution can lead to groundwater poisoning, deterioration of agricultural fields, climate change, health problems, and socio-economic impacts on humans. Air Pollution Air pollution is a mixture of solid particles and gases in the air. The causes of air pollution Particles in the air may include car emissions, chemicals from factories, dust, pollen, and mold spores. Ozone, a gas, is a major part of air pollution in cities. Smog is another name for the air pollution that ozone creates. Some air pollutants are poisonous. Effects of air pollution. According to the Air Quality Life Index, air pollution in Pakistan shortens average life expectancy by 3.9 years. Lahore, the capital of Punjab province and home to over 13 million people suffers the most from air pollution, which reduces life expectancy by 7 years. Pollution exposures include cancer, cardiovascular disease, respiratory diseases, diabetes mellitus, obesity, and reproductive, neurological, and immune system disorders. What steps do we need to take to save Pakistan from these types of pollution? Solution. One of the most efficient ways to deal with air pollution in Pakistan is to plant more trees. In addition, concerned authorities must take action to reduce the number of diesel vehicles that emit excessive carbon in the air. The first way to reduce pollution is to practice the 3Rs concept, namely reduce, reuse, and recycle. FAQS How does pollution affect human health?

World Population Day: Global Population Challenges and the Path Forward
World Population Day is always on July 11. It wants to bring attention to issues with world growth that are bad for the Earth. World Population Day 2024’s slogan, “Leave No One Behind, Count Everyone,” shows how important it is to get information from everyone to solve these problems.
It goes into more detail about how hard population growth is, all of its effects, and what might be able to be done to make the future better.
Solar Energy power system
What we should know before buying solar system? Solar energy is a type of energy which is directly obtain from sun in radiation form and convert it into electric power. Basically, solar system is the integration of many solar panels which works on the principle of “conservation of energy”. Energy can be converted from one form to another form. There are multiple categories of energy which are the fundamental to running machineries. What is solar panel? Solar panel is the composition form of multiples photo Voltic cells which convert light emery/sun radiation energy into (DC) electricity, this process is known as photovoltaic effect.There are three basic types of solar panel, we should know about before buy solar system because it can affect output power production and efficiency.• Monocrystalline• Polycrystalline• Thin film solar panel SOLAR PANEL TYPES EFFICIENCY COLOR ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES Monocrystalline panel 19~21% Black High efficiency Low resistance Works in cloudy and rainy conditions Expensive Poly crystalline 14~15% Blue colour Low price Good performance than thin film system Sensitive to high temperature Not pure silicon based Less efficiency than mono panel. Thin film 8~10 Dark blue Flexible Low price Essay to install Low efficiency Short warranty Un-suitable at home installation Which are the types of solar system? There are three types of solar system: • On-grid solar system• Off-grid solar system• hybrid solar system On grid-solar system Off- grid-solar system Hybrid solar system No need of batteries Required batteries to store energy/electricity Composition of on- grid and off- grid system Connected to public electricity Not connected, it just stores by batteries Can store as well transfer to grid. Net meter is used batteries use Net meter +batteries bot is installed in hybrid. Initially low investment price Comparatively high price Expensive On grid-solar system Off- grid-solar system Hybrid solar systemNo need of batteries Required batteries to store energy/electricity Composition of on- grid and off- grid systemConnected to public electricity/ Not connected , it just store by batteries Can store as well transfer to grid. Net meter is used batteries uses Net meter +batteries bot are installed in hybrid .Initially low investment price Comparatively high price Expensive On-Grid solar system It is also called grid tied solar system. On-grid solar system is system which is connected from electricity electric wires or grid connected system. We can install it where already electricity have been supplying from transformer otherwise we cannot uses this system but can use off-grid system instead of it.we are used net meter in on grid system for reading extra units that are supplying to the grid. On grid system convert energy through solar panels and transfer to AC inverter, where current convert from Dc ~ AC because our home appliances such as fan, tv, refrigerator works on AC current, where it further shifted to home and grid station. Extra power that is produced during this process transfer to grid and required shifted to home. For example, a solar system produces 10kwh electricity and our home requirement is just 5kwh then remain extra 5kwh electricity send to electricity where it will make huge reduction in our electricity bill and our electricity bill may be in credit or negative from electricity. Off-grid solar system. In this system we are not connected to grid while we are used batteries to store excessive power produced by solar system. Off- grid solar system particularly used in those areas where access of grid is not available or reliable, where the long hour’s electricity shut off. The components used in this system are: Solar panels, inverter, batteries, wiring and mounting system with monitoring device. Hybrid solar system. A hybrid solar system is the combination of solar panels with another source of electricity generation or storage to improve reliability and efficiency. Each type of hybrid solar system has its advantages and is chosen based on factors such as location, energy requirements, reliability needs, and cost considerations. The goal of these systems is typically to maximize energy efficiency, reliability, and sustainability while reducing dependence on traditional fossil fuels. What is 5kwh solar system? 5Kwh is a suitable system for homes, it is capable of producing more than 20~22 kwh of electricity within 24 hours. We can run these appliances: • 2 Inverter Ac • 5 led lights• 6 led lights• 1 refrigerator But all appliances simultaneously running may not feasible. Overall solar energy system (SES) is the clean, green and renewable energy system. Initially it is expensive but in long-term it has huge advantages. SES overcome the dependency on grid and provides hug cut-off from electricity bills. In this era many advanced solar systems are available in market than can generate electricity in cloudy and night conditions so we should buy a research based solar system because we know CHOOSE WISELY LIVE WELL FAQS Toggle #1 Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
