      We need all the tools we can find to stop pollution. We need new ideas to both clean up the mess we have already made, and to stop us polluting the environment more! We all need to be thinking how to solve the problems out there!

      We need many different ways of preventing pollution and, ideally, we’d stop creating it in the first place! One of the biggest ways we can prevent pollution is using catalysts, such as the catalytic converter found in cars. This takes toxic gasses like carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and unburnt fuel and converts them to less harmful substances like carbon dioxide and water.

      I think more than tools we need a changed attitude and changed ways as pollution is down to lifestyle choices. We also do need tools to clean up the pollution already occured

      Tools needed to stop pollution are controlling our industrial chemicals; pollution control by absorption and biodregration. Treating pollutions through biological processes; electrochemical treatment. Soil remediation as heavy metals and human pollution can be absorbed into the soil. The list is endless, however is also a case of us using our common sense when we throw things away.
