Soil pollution is when the pollutants in soil are above a certain level causing the soil to lose one or more of its functions. Soil pollution may also be thought of as the presence of manmade chemicals or any other modifications in the natural environment. The most common chemicals causing soil pollution are: petroleum hydrocarbons, pesticides, lead used in cars and house paint and other heavy metals. The occurrence of this manifestation is linked with industrialisation and the intensity of chemical usage. Soil pollution is widespread in all areas and is often the outcome of years of planned or unintentional emission of pollutants.
NOW! how does THAT sound for a 1st paragraph?
(WOW)
So, what is porosity?
The percentage of pore volume or void space, or that volume within rock that can contain fluids.
