All the compounds of environment including water, air and soil etc, are today in the graim grip of pollution that invites a big damage to civilization. Among various pollutants, sulphur dioxide, cloroflorocarbons-11 and 12, methane etc., are most prominent. These noxious elements move to environment by fossil fuel burning, automobile exhaust, seepage material and the applied pesticides which are utilized presently at mass level to protect crops, human and animal health. The indiscriminate use of pesticide has been giving serious blows to the environment and the worst days are unavoidable, if adequate measures are not done in this matter.
