Study Notes
Module Information
- Module Title: Poor Environmental Sanitation: Its Impact on One's Health
- Grade Level: 6
- Quarter: 3
- Module Number: 1
- Subject: Health
Learning Objectives
- Explain how poor environmental sanitation negatively affects individual health.
Introduction
- Maintaining a clean and healthy environment is a big challenge to communities.
- Improper waste disposal, oil spills, smoke-belching vehicles, and uncollected garbage are causes of pollution.
- Health officials and community members must work together to address environmental sanitation problems.
Negative Impacts of Poor Environmental Sanitation
- Garbage: Uncollected garbage attracts pests (rats, cockroaches, flies). These pests spread diseases through water and food contamination.
- Water Pollution: Untreated waste water from factories, industries, piggeries, and poultries released into rivers, seas, or oceans contaminates the water. This causes harm to aquatic life (fish kill), and makes water sources unsafe for human use.
- Air Pollution: Burning leaves and other wastes releases harmful poisons in the air. Smoke from factories, vehicles, and cigarette smoking causes respiratory illnesses and other health problems.
- Other factors: Lack of toilets and hygiene practices. Improper disposal of waste allows bacteria and viruses to multiply, increasing the incidence of diseases.
- Improper environmental sanitation contributes to poor health, including illnesses.
Solutions (implied)
- Proper waste disposal
- Waste recycling
- Maintaining clean water and air
- Controlling pests
Additional Activities
- Students should investigate and determine the consequences of poor environmental sanitation in their own communities.
