Our environment is having majority of chemical substances due to various humans activities. It is not the case of today but of the past as well. The difference only lies in the ratio of population verses environment, which is increasing day by day. As a result, there is a direct impact on the physical and chemical environment. These chemicals are the waste from industrial and agricultural processes, structural materials, pesticides, insecticides,weedicides etc.It is evident that some chemicals are useful but many are toxic and harm the environment and our health.
