Land pollution is the degradation of the Earth's surface caused by a misuse of resources and improper disposal of waste. Some examples of land pollution include:

• Litter found on the side of the road
• Illegal dumping in natural habitats
• Oil spills that happen inland
• The use of pesticides and other farming chemicals
• Damage and debris caused from unsustainable mining and logging practices
• Radiation spills or nuclear accidents

Land pollution is responsible for damage done to natural habitat of animals, deforestation and damage done to natural resources, and the general ugly-ing up of our communities. (So stop being a litterbug, eh?)
