Pollution is a "dirty" word. To pollute means to contaminate—topsoil of something by introducing impurities which make【B1】______ unfit or unclean to use. Pollution comes in many forms.

We literally lived in and breathe pollution, and not surprisingly, it is beginning to【B3】______our health, our happiness, and our civilization.

We are polluting the oceans, too, killing the fish and【B9】______depriving ourselves of an invaluable food supply.
Part of the problem is our exploding【B10】______. More and more people are producing more wastes. But this problem is intensified by our "throw-away" technology. Each year Americans【B11】______of 7 million autos, 20 million tons of waste paper, 25 million pounds of toothpaste tubes and 48 million cans. We throw away gum wrappers, newspapers, and paper plates.

Baby diapers, which used to be made of reusable cloth, are now paper throw-aways. Soon we will wear clothing made of【B14】______: "Wear it once and throw it away" will be the slogan of the fashionable-consciousness.
Where is this all to end? Are we turning the world into a gigantic dump, or is there hope that we can solve the pollution problem?【B15】______, solutions are in sight. A few of them are positively ingenious.
