how to make working model showing Air, Water, and Land Pollution

This is a working model showing Air, Water, and Land Pollution. On the left, we see factories and vehicles releasing smoke, causing air pollution.
In the middle, the plastic tray represents a lake, which is getting polluted by factory waste using this syringe mechanism.


You can also see a truck dumping garbage into the river.

This model highlights the sources and dangers of pollution and encourages us to protect our environment.

Materials Required:

  • Large cardboard base
  • 1 plastic tray (to represent lake/river)
  • 2 syringes (10ml or 20ml)
  • Flexible plastic tubing
  • truck, cars, factories, houses
  • Waste materials (plastic bits, foil, tissue paper, small wrappers)
  • Cotton (to show smoke)
  • Brown and green paper (for land and trees)
  • Scissors, glue gun, Fevicol, markers
  • Blue paper (for rivers), green sponges (as trees)

Video Step-by-Step Model Making:

1. Prepare Base & Sections:

  • Divide cardboard into three parts:
    • Left: Air Pollution
    • Center: Water Pollution (plastic tray as lake)
    • Right: Land Pollution

2. Air Pollution Area:

  • Place a factory model (box with chimney).
  • Attach cotton smoke to chimneys.
  • Place cars/bikes and cotton for exhaust fumes.
  • Use less trees, faded colors, and show people coughing (optional drawing).

3. Water Pollution Area:

  • Fix the plastic tray in the middle as a lake/river.
  • Connect a plastic bottle (factory waste tank) to the tray using a syringe and tube.
  • When you press the syringe, colored water (with trash) flows into the lake – simulating factory waste release.
  • Place toy truck dumping waste into the water body to show illegal waste dumping.

4. Land Pollution Area:

  • Show open dumping of garbage.
  • Place wrappers, plastic bits, foil, etc., to represent land pollution.
  • Include signs like “No Dustbin Here” or “Garbage Overflow”.
  • Place dried or cut plants to show degradation.
