  Apart from this, there are a few other types of pollution that exist. Visual Pollution is one of them. Pollution causes a Negative and harmful change in nature. We know that millions of people killed by pollution to date. It’s not mandatory that pollution should harm us physically.it could be harmful mentally; it could be harmful to psychological health.

Visual pollution creates deep displeasure, before knowing what the sources of visual pollution are, how does it affect us, how could we prevent this we must know what visual pollution is.

What is visual pollution?

    Visual pollution is an aesthetic issue, it is concerned with beauty. Visual pollution damages the ability to enjoy the view. Creating harmful changes in nature disturbs the visual areas. Visual pollution includes irregular formation, illegal dumps.

We are very careful about the aesthetic view of our home. But unfortunately, we don't have control over the city. We cannot maintain the aesthetic view of the city. We want our home in a comfortable place. Where we could feel relaxed that's why we take care of everything. Similarly, if we want to feel relaxed outside of the home also then we should maintain the aesthetic view of our village/town/city.

Consider you are at a bus stop and you see a lot of garbage near that stop. The surrounding area is irregularly constructed. The Colour combination of buildings is very irritating. How do you feel?

And consider the exact opposite situation your bus stop is clean; the surrounding area is well constructed, how you feel. The feeling which comes after seeing a good thing like a beautiful flower, butterfly, and open sky are enjoying. And the feeling which comes after seeing the garbage, crime, dead bodies, and dirty places is distracting, irritating.  

In short visual pollution is something that could lower our visual enjoyment. Or you can say it could be harmful to our happiness. Whatever looks ugly is visually polluted it could be anything.

How visual pollution occurs?

Garbage

Overcrowding

The main source of visual pollution is overcrowding. Increasing population is the main cause of all the pollution. Overcrowding is responsible for poor hygiene practices.

Overcrowding is like a human with 100 mouths and one ass resultant is very disaster 100 mouth eating and only one ass to discharge the waste.

Similarly, the overcrowded population is out of control which continually producing more and more waste but not able to dispose of it properly and that waste is the main cause of visual pollution. We see garbage everywhere wherever we go there is garbage.

Wires

Yes I know we are in the wireless world but trust me still that wires are the main cause of visual pollution. Electric wires and any other cables which are not underground are responsible for visual pollution.

Wires

Construction

Nowadays people taking care of building and society everyone want their building should look beautiful. But still, there are some areas where people really don’t care about the view. Unplanned construction creating more visual pollution you may look like an individual building is beautiful but collectively that society looks horrible. And color combination is also causing visual pollution.

Billboards and business signs

Well, few people find billboards attractive. Still, there must be a proper plan to place the billboards. Collectively they should look pretty. If few boards are broken few are not in alignment with others, that doesn’t look pretty. Business signs may be good for their business but that should be also within the limit. We see few shopkeepers keep their boards on the footpath this is not at all good.

Many other things are there which are responsible for visual pollution but most important is our thinking our attitude towards this visual pollution. If we change our thinking we could overcome this problem also.

 How does visual pollution affecting humans?

Visual pollution disturbs our visual enjoyment. This creates deep displeasure. 

It’s like overload our senses with too much information at a time. 

Making us uncomfortable and changing the mood and emotion. 

We feel very relax when we go to a garden or when we see something beautiful similarly we feel stress, anger when we see something which is not visually enjoyable. 

Visually polluted roads distract drivers and accident happens.

How to control visual pollution?

We need to educate the people to create awareness among them that beautiful surrounding is how beneficial for us and how visual pollution distracting us.

Our new planning should be very beautiful and there must be rules and regulations for building and highway construction.

By reducing the use of billboards and signboards we can control visual pollution.

Beautiful House

We need to do proper waste management need to grow the more roadside greenery, planting the tree, maintaining the outside lightning and buildings could control the visual pollution.
