I am living near an industrial area. There are numerous factories. Chimneys of these factories spew out black smoke which ends up polluting the air. Due to this, visibility is very poor throughout the day. Even breathing becomes difficult sometimes. Groundwater also appears to be polluted which is evident from the hard water which we get in our taps. Most of the empty land in this area is barren and unfit for farming. This speaks about the level of soil pollution this area.
