Pollution and Climate Change

In the end, we are all affected by pollution, no one person is affected by it. It was already clear that because world climate was warmer, land can also be contaminated on a large scale by damaging irrigation practices. In very day areas, farmland is soaked in water from rivers to grow crops. Because the weather is hot, the water evaporates quickly leaving behind tiny quantities of salt.
