The advancement in technology has contributed widely to the pollution of the environment. Various automobiles which came up as a result of technological advancement emit gases which lead to serious environmental pollution. On the other hand, the methods adopted by farmers today have come up as a result of the development of technology. The farmers use chemical pesticides and fertilizers to boost the farm yield, but in turn, often pollute the underground water that is later consumed by plants and animals. Health practitioners have always been at the forefront to criticize such farm produce for being unhealthy for human consumption. The use of bio gas is viewed as a good way of disposing of the waste has also raised environmental concerns with a number of organizations claiming that although using it helps reduce the level of pollution, few individuals will be willing to live near an industry which manufactures bio gas due to the gases emitted from these industries. The emitted gases have also had adverse effects on the health of individuals. The consequences of environmental pollution have not only led to various illnesses but also led to food shortages across the globe. Food shortage caused by the infertility of the soil as a result of environmental pollution may soon lead to deteriorating standards of living hence affecting the economy of a given country. Although various scholars are of the view that green technology reduces the level of pollution, adequate research on the use of this form of technology needs to be conducted so as to fully contain environmental pollution. Recycling of products such as plastics has also had its downward side. When the plastics are recycled, they are always mixed with other different plastics giving a low quality end product. The creativity of recycling products brought about by the new technology has left people worried about the transfer of waste materials from one form to another. Clothes made of fiber which comes from recycled plastics contain toxins which are harmful when they come in to contact with the human skin. The whole recycling process has, therefore proven to be an issue of concern in regard to the environment. Problems brought about by the pollution of the environment can, therefore, be quite a hard task to fully contain. This is because the various steps aimed at reducing the level of pollution end up causing more harm, for example, the use of bio gas has led to Global warming hence causing serious problems to both plants and animals. Different measures are advocated by sociologist so as to contain the level of global warming. Protecting the environment can be achieved if the entire world agrees to follow the laid down policies of international law in regard to the protection of the environment. Powerful countries such as China and the USA should lead by example for the other countries to imitate them in regulating the level of environmental pollution. In conclusion, Pollution of the environment has not only affected the residents of one country, but also the world at large it, therefore, requires attention from all the members of the society. Protecting the environment has so far proven to be a global issue which needs to be addressed by all countries. Researchers have recommended that different countries sho
