Can we control pollution in this technically developing world?

Question

if 'YES' what are the technical measures that can be taken ?

Answer 1

yes every thing is controlable except mother nature ofcourse

these are the measures:

not use gas as a primary tool.

must use mother natures waste except oil.

must use the suns energy as a primary tool.

use physical transportations like a bike...

and a lot more you can think of that not uses chemical but natural  except oil.

Answer 2

1. Is that CO2 is not a pollutant.

Answer 3

'YES' WE CAN CONTROL POLLUTION IN THIS TECHNICALLY DEVELOPING WORLD BY BECOMING AWARE ABOUT THE CAUSES. WHY POLLUTION IS CREATED IN ATMOSPHERE AND HOW IT IS INCREASING . WE ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS BIG PROBLEM.IF WE TRY TO CONTROL POLLUTION THAN IT IS POSSIBLE IN THIS MODERN WORLD ALSO .WE SHOULD  TRY TO DECREASE THIS BY CONTROLING WASTAGE OF WATER , GROWING MORE AND MORE TREES , DECREASING SOIL POLLUTIION .IF FIRST OF ALL WE OUR-SELF BECOME AWARE THAN WE CAN SAY TO OTHERS.PLEASE TRY THIS  AND HELP TO  REDUCE POLLUTION OF 'WATER, AIR ,AND SOIL'

Answer 4

electric cars

solar energy

biomass energy

wind energy

using more bicycles

checking up all existing vehicles more often..

and so on

Answer 5

It is very difficult to control pollution. Things are produced more than necessary. If that can be controlled, then pollution may be controlled. Pollution depends on the total output from industries. Reduce unnecessary output, and pollution will be reduced.

Also, people must use the products judiciously. Just because you have money, you buy anything in any number and you use it or misuse it. This contributes to the world pollution. For example, take the case of paper production. So much paper is wasted carelessly in offices. If this could be reduced, then the "paper-load" on the world will be reduced. By "paper-load", I mean, the power-consumption in and the polltants coming out of paper-mills.

Answer 6

"YES"

1. Alternative Fuels.

2. Reaching Ideal Engine Technique

3. Proper Waste Management

4. Recycling

5. Redused CFC Consumption

6. Non Conventional Energy Sources

7. Your Activities First

Answer 7

yes. by growing trees and using that sugar cane wastes as a fuel for vehicles. maintaining a perfect disposal of waste. restriction of using plastics.

Answer 8

Yes. You have to at least hope for yes. What is the alternative?

Clean coal technologies.

Stack Gas Treatment

Advanced Pulverised Fuel (PF) Combustion

Fluidised Bed Combustion (FBC)

Gasification and Integrated Coal Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC)

Hybrid and Advanced Systems (not cars)

Fuel Cell technologies

http://www.australiancoal.com.au/cleante...

Most varieties of clean coal technology can be retrofitted to existing coal fired power stations. Most of these not only reduce co2 emissions but also SOx. and NOx.

Dramatically reducing coal fired power station emissions will make a significant difference.

Demand side management.

Fancy title which basically means. Encouraging people not to waste energy. Transport and home energy uses.

More efficient transport.

Most of the energy used to drive a car is to overcome wind resistance. Wind resistance is a factor of the vehicles frontal area and drag coefficient.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_coeffi...

Hybrids and Electric vehicles do pollute less.

Figures for the tesla electric car show that it operates at 110 watts/km. If recharged soley from the dirtiest coal fired power station (1000g/kwh) it still returns around 110g /km (on renewables 0g/km). Only slightly worse than a toyota prius @ 106g/km. By comparison a Toyota Corrola (1.8L) gives 174g/km.

A good electric vehicle (charged on renewables) is almost as good as riding a bicycle.

Answer 9

yes we can.

stop burning plastics.

avoid using complicated transport.

use limited resources.

plant trees

conduct campaigns.

Answer 10

I can solve air pollution. It's so easy.  The majority of smog, and any other forms of air pollution comes from major cities that don't have a lot of plant life in/around them.  In these cities, I can assure you, there are several run down buildings.  Take these buildings, fill the floor by floor with air filters and kudzu.  Put slow running intake and outtake fans on the windown and recycle the air in the city.  You can pay for it by dropping the emmissions test and just charging the standard $25.00/per car at renewal.

Oh yeah, and since you're using big buildings, it shouldn't be too hard to retrofit them with solar panels.  Also, you can hire the homeless (that already live in the buildings) to trim the plants and clean the filters.  Now you've killed two birds with one stone.

Answer 11

Electric cars, PV electric to support grid, solar water heaters. Solar cooking devices. These will all combine to make a cleaner and better world.

Using cleaner bio-fuels will make things better.

If technical innovation comes with some foresight about environment consequences then we will get much better technology solutions.

Answer 12

We can strart by not trying to fool the public into thinking hybrid car technology saves energy.  If you look at the sum of energy required to both produce and operate the vehicle through it's lifetime, hybrids are actually more wasteful.

Purely electric cars cannot be the answer, as they will tax the power gird further and we will burn more fossil fuels to catch up with the demand.

The areas we can make the most progress on would be industrial and agricultural pollution.  There is still lots to do there.  We can do better, Asian nations really need improvement.

Answer 13

For me, i think there will be a solution to this problem for sure if you are an intelligent person there are many ways to stop problem.for starters,making a campaign about this problem.

Answer 14

no not really...coz eventhough there was a solution or a measure that can be taken the majority will not listen or even care

Answer 15

Depends what kind of pollution you care about.  If you care about regional pollution (why? It's their country) then you can sell them the technolgies the western countries already have to solve our own problems.

If you care about the GLOBAL pollutants like freon and CO2, then we need to develop new technologies that can work FOR THEM without setting their development back or costing them more money.

Look, today we know global warming is real, yet Americans have changed nothing.  We all still drive around in our cars consuming at the same rate.  We refuse to give up our culture and our progress, and (by and large) we refuse to pay for more expensive solutions that are cleaner.  If we won't, we can't expect other nations to!

We succeeded with freon, but then, that one was easy.
