No, because nature doesn't really have a concept of "pollution" like we do.
Chemicals that are poisonous to some life-forms are food to others. And the same chemicals in different concentrations can be food or poison.
For example, the oxone layer protects us from ultraviolet light from the sun, and it's a bad idea for us to destroy it with CFCs, but ozone itself is poisonous to us if we were to drink it.
So instead of trying to "get rid of pollution", we should be trying to keep everything in balance.

What are you defining as pollution? When you get drunk from imbibing too many mixed drinks? When toxins overwhelm waterways to the point that no life forms can exist in the water? When the air quality degrades to the point that breathing out-of-doors becomes difficult? What about the methane excreted by cattle, both wild and domesticated? The carbon dioxide that most warm blooded animals excrete through breathing?
The concept normally applies to the consequences of industrial development and the inappropriate disposal or treatment of industrial wastes (those results of manufacturing that were unintended for market). Under that sense, then as long as we make things, there will be some degree of pollution. At some point in re-engineering the manufacturing processes, it is feasible to assume that so little pollution will be produced that we will declare it acceptable and not damaging to the environment. But purely pollution free? Not until we stop manufacturing things and go back to living in a tool free society. no electricity, no mallets, no industry.

no the earth will never become pollution free
when we breathe we cause pollution. We breathe in oxyegen and breathe out carbon dixoide. Carbon dixoide is reason that global warming is happening after all.
maybe if we all die the pollution start to decrease. if everyone dies there would be no one to drive cars
it good that ur tryin the earth place a better place. We need that for a better enviroment. Pollution will never disapear but u can reduce the amount of pollution.
Thanks for caring about pollution and helping the enviroment..

This is realy hard to say, but i think the only way that the world can be pollution free is: No humans, we are the biggest polluters, if we cant make it pollution free, then we should reduce it!!!
Go on http://www.greenpeace.org/ and spend money that this org can develop on projects to help the world, even if you only spend a dollar it helps.
But you can help aswell for example, recycle, drive a electric car or a car that doesnt waist alot of petrol, dont buy alot of stuff with plastic around, use products that dont damage the ozone layer...............
Do something before its to late!

If the Earth is ever pollution-free, it would not be a direct result of human action, and it would not happen during human existence, unless somebody can find a way to harness all of the world's pollution and turn it into portable, clean-burning energy.
