The tendency of industrial and manufacturing processes that constantly demands production resources and repeated exploitation of raw materials has cumulatively led to the destruction of forests and the natural habitats that support wildlife. Acts such as mining, deforestation, and utilization of water resources for industrial production have destroyed natural habitats and forced organisms to move further into the wild, exposing them to predators and intolerable living conditions.
Consequently, some wildlife species have faced extinction while several others remain highly endangered. Industrial wastes, chemicals, emissions, or accidental leaks, fires, oil spills and so on have also been prime contributors to wildlife extinction.
Furthermore, these environmentally damaging materials take several years to clean-up thereby compounding the effects. For example, the BP oil accidental spill in claimed thousands of marine life, and some of them were among the rarest species on earth. Even after some time had passed, marine animals continued to die. Other common implications of industrial pollution encompass damage to structures and buildings and increased risks of different occupational hazards like exposure to asbestos, chemical dust, among other mineral or metallic particles.

Due to a numerous number of different plants and factories, cars, perfumes and other things we steadily kill our nature. Multiple factors pollute the air, water, and soil. We lose natural resources and cannot recover them. It seems that humanity leads itself to self-destruction. We take more and more from nature and return too little. They are caused by humanity. Different industries cause the degradation of land quality, spoil the water, cut rainforest, emit hazardous pollutants into the air, induce acid rain, and global warming.
This list may go on and on. The predictions can be drawn by anyone. These horrifying facts have a negative impact on all people. We became vulnerable to many diseases and health deviations than even a decade ago. Many children are born with serious health problems that are even incurable.
Air pollution may be of various kinds. Everything depends on the dangerous substances that are present in the emissions of plants and factories. For example, a horrible industrial disaster that took place in India in had a negative effect on over 8, people. These negative traits were spotted even after two decades passed. They negatively affect two, three or more generations.
