Modern pollution is nothing like it was in past years. Pollution itself is a more recent historical problem that has been brought to many people’s attention. One of the biggest phenomena is called El Niño. “El Niño, the periodic warming of the Pacific Ocean that alters climate around the world, has already set records in 1997, and the worst is possibly still to come”(Today’s Science). It’s first major outbreak was in 1982-83, it’s the spark that rose attention to modern pollution. Although,…
