What Are Some Slogans Against Pollution?

There are countless slogans against pollution, and there is an array of different anti-pollution causes that are promoted via slogans. The most famous slogan of all slogans against pollution is undoubtedly "Save the Planet".

"Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" is also a commonly seen one, as are the simple yet effective "Think Green" and "Earth:Keep it clean".

• The purpose of slogans against pollution

There are numerous different fears that environmentalists have in regard to pollution. The main areas of concern include polluting water, air pollution and soil contamination. Slogans are used to raise awareness of these movements.

• Water pollution

The aim of all campaigns against pollution is to preserve the environment. The dangers in water pollution, whether that's lakes, rivers or oceans, is that pollution will not only kill the wildlife that inhabit that environment, it is also a significant source of food and water for us humans.

• Air pollution

A very hot topic if you can forgive the pun. Air pollution primarily via carbon emissions is widely believed to be responsible for global warming. This is why there is a trend towards reducing our individual carbon footprints.

A carbon footprint is simply a measure of the amount of greenhouse gases released individually through our lifestyle choices. You can measure your carbon footprint at www.carbonfootprint.com/calculator.aspx

• Soil contamination

This is caused when man-made chemicals find their way into the earth. This can have a dramatic impact on the eco-system and upon humans too, causing any number of health problems.

• Is there really anything to worry about?

It depends, if you think humans are capable of destroying the earth, other than through planting nuclear weapons at the earth's core then no, I personally don't believe the planet needs to be saved. However are humans capable of destroying everything that makes the planet earth hospitable for life as we know it?, then yes it could be a real danger that we become architects of our own extinction.

A famous Cree Indian Prophesy powerfully illustrates our fate if we do not turn around our relationship with the environment: "Only after the last tree has been cut down, Only after the last river has been poisoned, Only after the last fish has been caught, Only then will you find that money cannot be eaten."

Pollution, pollution, green is the solution
