land pollution are those things that are trash to the enviroment. This is a big issue now a days because new materials are harder to discard and the recycling issue has been taken seriously by government agencies. Plastic bag can become a pollutant to the land as much as old cans and the rest of the trash discarted daily.
Hello, Below is the definition of land pollution straight from the wikipedia website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_pollution Land Pollution is the degradation of earth's land surfaces often caused by human activities and their misuse of land resources. It occurs when waste is not disposed properly.Haphazard disposal of urban and industrial wastes, exploitation of minerals, and improper use of soil by inadequate agricultural practices are a few factors.[1] Urbanization and industrialisation are major causes of land pollution. The Industrial Revolution set a series of events into motion which destroyed natural habitats and polluted the environment, causing diseases in both humans and animals. Hope that helps.
