What is pollution control?

Pollution control is the act of trying to prevent and correct pollution. There are many ways that it can be carried out. Regulations can be put into place by the national government or by states or local organizations. This means that factories have rules to go by such as in what exhaust they can emit into the air or water. It can also put restrictions on individuals like having inspections on their cars to monitor the amount of pollutants their cars are emitting into the air. Pollution control can come at a personal level too. When an individual makes the committment not to litter or decides to recyle, that is pollution control.

A parent can teach good habits to their children in regards to pollution control too and teachers can teach it to their students. Pollution control comes in many forms and is very helpful, no matter how large or small of a scale it is on. When everyone does their part, pollution is controlled at least a little and every little bit helps.
