In this article we are going to briefly discuss some of the most important environmental issues that the world is facing today due to human activities. If this little article gets your attention – if you get mad about what is happening in the world – you want to do something about it then please learn more! Knowledge is power, and we want to help you learn more.
Our actions have negatively impacted the ecology and biophysical environment of the globe for decades. Ever since we started using carbon based fossils as a source of energy to fuel our industries, machineries, and homes, we have been impacting the globe through carbon emissions and other forms of pollution.
Carbon and other equivalent green house gases have already exceeded 400 parts per million, which is considered the tipping point, or the threshold, where greenhouse gases can cause harmful environmental changes. Below we will discuss top global impacts due to human activities.
Impact of human activities on climatic changes
When we connect the dots, we can easily find the correlation between global warming, climatic changes, extreme weather and effects on human health. The record heat, floods, droughts, forest fires, hurricanes and storms should make the message clear that we are doing something very wrong to the globe. Scientists are discovering that the extreme weather patterns are effects of global warming. The main reasons why our globe is getting hotter is carbon emission, greenhouse gases, and pollution.
Clean energy sources
Say “no” to dirty energy sources! The United States is the largest oil consuming nation in the world and we are at a crossroads today with choosing the right source of energy. Scientists predict that using fossil fuels as a source of energy will soon become a thing of the past. Using alternative sources of energy, such as wind and solar power, aren’t more costly than using fossil fuel and have long term environmental and health benefits. Renewable energy sources do not pollute the environment by emitting harmful gases, so we remain healthier. Our economy will prosper too if we create new jobs that do not depend on fossils and reduce global warming.
Below is a list of alternate energy sources with a Few Great References

Climate change and the threat to public health
Pollution and negative environmental impacts pose a serious threat to public health. Children and the elderly are more susceptible to air pollution and can suffer greatly from respiratory problems, eye and skin irritation, and sinus issues.
Conserving marine life
The world’s fisheries and stock of wild fish around the world are facing a crisis today. Our oceans have been stripped through years of over fishing, pollution, and destruction of habitats. Much of the variety of fish, including the most popular fish such as tuna, cod, and snapper, are either forced to move elsewhere or face extinction. Yet they continue to be over-fished.
Take action
Political leaders, policymakers, businesses, and everyone else must come together to protect environmental resources such as air and water quality, natural habitat, preserving forestry and building a sustainable future for all of us. If we do not take action, the quality of our ecosystem, environment, and the habitat of aquatic and wildlife will continue to deteriorate. There is plenty we can do to reduce the negative impacts on the globe. We can all reduce our dependency on carbon based fossil fuels to reduce emission. Use of clean reusable energy sources is already gaining popularity around the globe. Using clean energy would significantly reduce carbon emissions and air pollution, improving our health and environment. Air quality and human health are closely related, and so reducing air pollution can lead to a healthier sustainable human race.

Hydro Infra Technologies (HIT), a Swedish clean tech company based in Stockholm, has developed an innovative patent pending approach for neutralizing carbon fuel emissions by generating a novel gas called Hydro Nano Gas (HNG).
In spite of all the advancement happening in the energy sector, global economies are still dependent on fossil fuels as the interlinked chain of costs to completely replace the burning of fossil fuels with more clean and sustainable options is beyond the financial resources of even the richest nations.
This in turn effects the climate change scenario which has been continuously increasing as more pollution and green house gases are created from burning fossil fuels on a daily basis.
This dilemma requires a new approach with safe, cost effective and smart solutions; the solution in sight? Making any fossil fuel climate neutral – and this is exactly what HIT’s Hydro Nano Gas proposes to do.
Water contains 2 basic elements, Hydrogen and Oxygen. These 2 basic elements can be split, divided and utilized. Splitting water (H2O) is a known science. But the energy costs to perform splitting outweigh the energy created from hydrogen when the Hydrogen is split from the water molecule H2O. This is where mainstream science usually closes the book on the subject.
HIT took a different approach by postulating that it was not only possible but indefinitely sustainable to split water in an energy efficient way to extract a high yield of Hydrogen at very low cost.
The process of creating HNG involves pulsing an range of low energy frequencies in a very specific sequence into water. The pulsing treatment effectively manipulates the molecules to line up in a certain structure which are then put through a splitting process. The result is HNG.
Being exotic as it is, HNG displays some very different properties from normal hydrogen. For instance: HNG instantly neutralizes carbon fuel pollution emissions; HNG can be pressurized up to 2 bars; HNG combusts at a rate of 9000 meters per second while normal Hydrogen combusts at a rate 600 meters per second; oxygen values actually increase when HNG is inserted into a diesel flame; and finally, HNG acts like a vortex on fossil fuel emissions causing the flame to be pulled into the centre thus concentrating the heat and combustion properties.
Injecting HNG into a combustion chamber produces several effects that increase the burn efficiency of the fuels. HNG gasification effectively burns unburned residue/cluster while completing the burn process quicker. The long term impact of using HNG in the burning of fossil fuels can provide the balanced solution for the on going economic-climate change debate.
The new technology is also found to be effective in the treatment of polluted water; when HNG Nano bubbles are injected into polluted water, a microbe chain reaction is initiated that rapidly triggers and boosts the waters’ own organic repairing process. While further testing and validation are required, the discovery creates new potential in providing solutions to critical areas of global pollution.
HIT is also developing a Smoke Eliminator for all sorts of plants and facilities. The process reduces the need for smoke analysis as it results in a clean wet scrubber technology where CO2 becomes a clean by-product ready to be reused.
Further, a miniaturized version of the standard HNG reactor will help HIT achieve its goal of gassing 9,000 cubic meters of smoke volume per second. Using Nano technology, the reactor will see the beginning of a new technology phase for each HNG application, reports HIT.
The HIT innovation story begins in the 1980’s when a small team of dedicated technicians, researchers and engineers came together to innovate real world solutions based on the theoretical research conducted by Nobel prize winner Professor Yuan Tse Lee. The goal was clear – to ‘crack’ the Hydrogen code.
In late 2012, after years of on / off research and experimentation, they finally cracked the code and HNG was born.
HIT was formed to spread their discoveries to the world as Information Technology via joint venture partners.
HIT has also selected SGS – the worlds leading testing/validation and certification company – to be its’ permanent testing-validation protocol partner, providing certification that enables HIT to expand into global markets.

Ok…It didnt help…lol
The earth has gotten dirtier over the last century because the world has found out fossils fuels are the biggest cause of pollution.
