Four Global Pollutions
* Sea level rising
* Ozone layer
* Acid rain
* Deforestation
Sea level rising:
On site they release gases which then melt the ice caps and then the sea level is raised by ice caps melting. Rising seas will increase coastal erosion, pollution, storm damage, andFlooding. They'll pose threats to coastal roads, bridges, jetties, breakwaters, docks, piers, and waterfront property. Intruding salt water might contaminate groundwater supplies and threaten landfill and hazardous-waste sites.
Ozone layer:
Ozone is a gas that occurs naturally in our atmosphere. Most of it is concentrated in the ozone layer, a region located in the stratosphere several miles above the surface of the Earth. Although ozone represents only a small fraction of the gas present in the atmosphere, it plays a vital role by shielding humans and other life from harmful ultraviolet light from the Sun. on the site they use sprays and chemicals which goes up in the air and effects the ozone layer then the solar flayers will come straight through and hit the bodies of humans and animals and it will then cause cancer.
Acid Rain:
When we use machineries on the Randall well site they burn fossil fuels, sulfur dioxide (SO2) is released into the atmosphere. These chemical gases react with water, oxygen, and other substances to form mild solutions of sulfuric and nitric acid. Winds may spread these acidic solutions across the atmosphere and over hundreds of miles. When acid rain reaches Earth, it flows across the surface in runoff water, enters water systems, and sinks into the soil. Acid rain has many ecological effects, but none is greater than its impact on lakes, streams, wetlands, and other aquatic environments. Acid rain makes waters acidic and causes them to absorb the aluminum that makes its way from soil into lakes and streams. This combination makes waters toxic to crayfish, clams, fish, and other aquatic animals.
