               Notes

    An early sign of environmental limits was the air pollution of the
industrial revolution, brought on by the burning of coal to run mills
and machinery. It was not until after World War Ⅱ, however, that
pollution came to be viewed by many as a threat to the health of the
planet. By the 70s many organizations and governments were seeking
means of controlling pollution.
    Current evidence strongly implicates various pollutants in numerous
human health problems: cancer, birth defects, genetic changes, etc.

underground water. So management of solid waste presents an
increasingly acute problem in the modern world.
