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.

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.
