Yes. A patch of land in West Chicago, IL was polluted with Thorium by Kerr McGee. Thorium is radioactive and can cause cancer.

A chemical leak in Bhopal, India killed hundreds of thousands if not millions between 1984 and today.

Pollution can cause lots of damage to us in direct contact and second-hand contact. One way pollution affects us is that we inhale pollution, which is bad for our health. It also harms other living creatures and this is why some animals are extinct today. The number one drastic effect of pollution is that it is one of the major causes of global warming. This means that day by day, pollution makes the ozone layer gets thinner and thinner. Once the ozone layer is no more, then the polar ice caps will melt, the Earth will be flooded, and everybody will die, unless we find some way to protect the ozone layer or move to another planet. This is sad, but true in the future.

Um...unsure the place you got here up with that meant ordinary consensus. the final consensus of Christians that i be attentive to are completely for assisting the atmosphere. the way I see it, God created the earth, so this is our interest to look after it. If we don't, it is particularly adverse thank you and basically proves how egocentric we actually are. intense poisonous fumes from factories and issues like that are destroying our ozone layer. it is not Christians, this is human beings often. it is not like various atheists do each and every little thing of their capacity to maintain the atmosphere, basically like no longer all Christians are out to ruin it. And the folk who're under the impact that Jesus is somewhat going to ruin (blow up, blow away, and so forth.) the planet needless to say have not truthfully examine the Bible.
