7. Technological environment: Technological environment is prevailing even before
evolution of computers. The concept of computerisation and its application to
decision-making process is a recent phenomenon, and it is also called as User-Machine
system. It implies that some tasks are best performed by humans, while others are best
done by machine. The user of an technological environment, is any person responsible for
entering input data, instructing the system, or utilizing the information output of the
system. Hence, this system is useful to solve many problems of the organization. User-
machine interaction is facilitated by operations in which the user’s input-output device
(usually a visual display unit) is connected to the computer.

The most appropriate definition of environmental pollution would be the introduction of
different harmful pollutants into certain environment that make this environment unhealthy to
live in. The most common pollutants are usually chemicals, garbage, and waste water.
Environmental pollution is happening in many parts of the world, especially in form of air and
water pollution. The best example for air pollution are some of China’s cities, including capital
Beijing, and the best example for water pollution is India with its Ganges river pollution problem.

Globally speaking environmental pollution problem is much bigger than we think it is, even in
many our cities there are problems with dirty air, or sound pollution from traffic and different
other disturbing noises. The most severe environmental pollution is happening in developing
countries of the third world because not only to they lack any form of sustainable management
but they also lack even the basic sanitation so you can imagine how bad is the environmental
condition in these countries.

Pollution of the environment is causing great damage to ecosystem that depend upon the health
of this environment. Air and water pollution can cause death of many organisms in given
ecosystem, including humans. Water pollution according to some estimates cause 14.000 deaths
each day in the world, most of them in India. This is really no surprise when you look at the data
that says that 700 million Indians do not even have access to a proper toilet, whether alone clean
water.

Many developed countries have introduced certain laws to not only regulate various types of
pollution but also the laws to mitigate the adverse effects of pollution. Pollution levels need to
be controlled all the time if we want to keep our environment safe and healthy. Without proper
pollution control environment soon becomes unhealthy. Preventing introduction of pollutants
into some environment is the best way to protect environment from pollution. To do so it is
important to develop ecological conscience of nearby communities, and effective waste
management in form of recycling.
Healthy environment is prerequisite of healthy life for us and our children, and fighting pollution
is definitely the best way to keep our environmental healthy.

5.2 Pollution created by different Industries

Industrial pollution is pollution which can be directly linked with industry, in contrast to other
pollution sources. This form of pollution is one of the leading causes of pollution worldwide; in
