● `color{brown}("Pollution")` is any undesirable change in `color{violet}("physical, chemical")` or `color{violet}("biological characteristics of air")`, `color{violet}("land, water or soil")`.
● Agents that bring about such an undesirable change are called as `color{brown}("pollutants")`.
● In order to control `color{violet}("environmental pollution,")` the Government of India has passed the `color{brown}("Environment (Protection) Act, 1986")` to protect and `color{violet}("improve the quality")` of our environment `color{violet}("(air, water and soil)")`.
