The History of Pollution in New York City

When will these standards be available nationwide after the "Water Pollution Control Law" has been passed? The law passed the rules of the Tokyo Metropolitan Wastewater Treatment Committee. Most notably, all lakes, rivers, streams and ponds must be harvestable. This guarantees the standards for water quality monitoring and improvement in New York City. (Waldman, 2013) (Jarvey, 2006) In the 1890s, air pollution also became a major problem in rapid industrialization. As a result, the government began to develop various air quality laws dating back to the beginning of the 20th century.

A healthy researcher at New York University Juan Bello said the city was at the forefront of efforts to suppress noise pollution for decades. New York is the first city to develop a noise code. But it is also the biggest city in the country, with a densely populated city. "In most American cities this city is doing a lot of activities per square mile," Velo says. "So the noise is an important part of life in New York City." In recent years he pointed out that the city became noisy as the city experienced a huge building boom.

An overcrowded unsanitary situation in New York City caused an increase in disease, and cholera and yellow fever destroyed the city. The existence of contaminated aquifers, dense houses, lack of sewerage, basic sanitation, and pollution industries around wells and residential areas has brought unprecedented mortality. In addition, as the dense wooden buildings expanded rapidly, the city was destroyed by a fire in New York in 1835.

Yellow fever is the fundamental cause of several devastating epidemics. New York, Philadelphia, and cities in northern Boston were fashioned. In 1793, the biggest yellow fever epidemic in America history hit 5000 people in Philadelphia - about 10% of the total population. About half of the inhabitants including President George Washington evacuated this city. In colonial times West Africa was known as "white grave" for malaria and yellow fever. Viral hemorrhagic fevers such as Ebola virus disease, Lassa fever virus, Rift Valley fever, Marburg virus and Bolivian hemorrhagic fevers, etc. can become a pandemic is theoretically very contagious and fatal disease. However, the transmission of these viruses requires intimate contact with the infected vector and since the vector is only a short time before death or a serious disease, their ability to effectively spread to cause a pandemic Is limited.
