Ensayo sobre la contaminación en inglés.

Test on soil contamination.

Pollution of our environment is one of the most worrisome and controversial events. The Earth is a unique planet in the solar system. With a diversity of incredible life, man does not realize that he has an unrepeatable gift in which to develop his existence.

If we dirty the air, it affects our lungs. Several studies have indicated that in large cities where there is an excess of air pollution, its inhabitants are more prone to respiratory problems.
