Environmental cleanup refers to the process of removing pollutants and contaminants from the environment, particularly in soil, water, and air. This can involve various methods, such as bioremediation, where living organisms like bacteria are used to break down harmful substances, or physical removal of waste materials. The goal is to restore ecosystems and protect public health. Cleanup efforts often target areas affected by industrial activities, oil spills, or hazardous waste disposal. Organizations, including government agencies and non-profits, work together to assess damage and implement cleanup strategies. Successful environmental cleanup can lead to healthier habitats and improved quality of life for communities.
