Abstract

Water pollution is one of the environmental problems that is increasingly urgent to be addressed, especially those caused by household waste. This waste, if not managed properly, can contain various hazardous chemicals and microorganisms that contaminate water sources. Descriptive analysis to describe the pollution phenomenon in depth through narrative analysis of community experiences and the socio-economic impacts of pollution. Results: Water pollution caused by household waste is a serious problem that affects environmental and human health. Polluted water can contain bacteria and parasites that cause diarrhea, dehydration, and malnutrition. Household waste can cause ecosystem damage, the life of aquatic biota is disrupted due to decreased water quality. Water pollution due to household waste has a broad impact on human health and the environment. Good waste management efforts are essential to prevent further pollution and protect public health and ecosystems.

Abstract

The presence of hazardous gas and particle emissions has a significant impact on human health. Therefore, a review is needed to analyze the impact of air pollution so that the public can be more aware of the importance of air pollution problems that occur around them. This review contains information related to the impact of air pollution collected from several previous studies that focus on air pollution and its impacts. The negative impacts on health caused by air pollution include lung disorders, heart disorders, immune system disorders, allergies, developmental disorders, cancer, and mental health disorders. The implementation of Environmental Tax, the use of corn cobs as activated carbon as an adsorbent, improving infrastructure and empowering mass transportation, and replacing BBM fuel with Hydrogen are some of the efforts that have been made to reduce air pollution due to gas emissions. In an effort to prevent the negative impacts of air pollution, consistency and commitment are needed from various sectors.

Abstract

Introduction: Air pollution in urban environments impacts biodiversity, and disrupts ecosystem services that are essential for urban dwellers. One of the significant impacts of air pollution is on agricultural productivity in urban areas. Methods: This study used a quantitative approach with a descriptive design. The aim was to analyze plant responses to air pollution. Results: Air pollutants such as tropospheric ozone can damage plant tissues and disrupt cell functions, including photosynthesis and respiration, resulting in decreased growth and yield. Air pollution can disrupt pollination and fruit and seed formation, reducing the quantity and quality of the crop. Pollutants such as carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and sulfur dioxide (SO2) affect plant physiology and morphology, including stomata damage, decreased chlorophyll, and leaf growth. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that air pollution can damage plant tissues and disrupt cell functions, including photosynthesis and respiration, resulting in decreased growth and yield.
