The term "ecology" refers to the science of how living organisms interact with each other and with the environment. However, in a broader and more relevant sense, ecology is understood as environmental protection issues. This happened largely because the impact of people on nature led to many negative consequences. And, in turn, the environment began to negatively affect human health.

A person can do without much. However, he absolutely needs clean air, drinking water and food. Alas, as a result of the rapid growth of industry, as well as environmental pollution with all kinds of hazardous waste (for example, industrial, transport, household), there are fewer places on Earth where clean air, water and soil are observed. A number of hazardous substances, which after some time end up in the human body, constantly enter the air and water sources. Many of these substances have the ability to accumulate, which makes them especially hazardous to health.

Polluted air leads to a number of diseases, especially the respiratory system. People living in industrial areas often have allergies, chronic bronchitis, pneumonia, and bronchial asthma. In the most severe cases, it comes to lung cancer.

A huge danger to people is drinking water contaminated with hazardous waste. According to environmental scientists, approximately 2/3 of all diseases on our planet can be caused by the use of low-quality water. Of these, the most serious consequences are: genetic mutations, which causes the birth of children with various deviations from the norm; oncological diseases; digestive system diseases; diseases of the immune system; reproductive system diseases. That is why people use all kinds of water filters.

The ingress of harmful substances into water and soil inevitably leads to their appearance in food, both plant and animal origin. And the use of such products, respectively, many times increases the risk of developing many diseases, up to cancer. In addition, adverse ecology affects the human nervous system, making it highly irritated, aggressive.

In a number of countries, environmental issues are given great importance. Among such states, first of all, it should be noted Switzerland, Sweden, Finland, Norway. Unfortunately, there are much more countries where the environment is in a deplorable state and no changes are expected for the better. After all, the number of factories, machinery, and equipment polluting the environment becomes more and more every year. And man cannot yet prevent this process.
