‘’The challenge of sustainable development requires integration of economic development with environmental concern.’’ Support this statement by giving four measures that can be taken by the industries to protect the environment.

Though Industrialisation is part of globalization we cannot ignore the harmful effect of it upon the environment is possible.

The effects could be reduced simultaneously by the Industries:


1. The industries could minimize water usage and could reuse the water by recycling.


2. Rainwater harvesting to store the rainwater.


3. Treating hot water effluents before discharging into water bodies.


4. Less drawing of groundwater.


5. Fitting smokestacks to factories with an electrostatic precipitator to reduce air pollution.


6. Using oil or gases instead of coal in factories.
