  • Abstract:
  • Deadlier chronic may cause due to continuous exposure of heavy metals like As, Pb, Cr, Cd, Sn, Sb ect. The toxicity of such heavy metals are creating more serious environmental problems. They remain in the environment posing threat on human beings and sustaining aquatic biodiversity. Untreated industrial waste water contains such deadlier heavy metals. They may enter in the green veggies grown on such contaminated water and indirectly in human biological system. Pesticides also converted into toxic chemicals. Veggies grown on such sewage water besides the rail track in Mumbai suburban are found to be contaminated with some deadlier heavy metal like Pb, As, Cd, Cr, Sb and Sn. Such veggies cannot be differentiated easily in the market. Avoid spraying of pesticides to avoid the effect of pesticides. Hydroponics is the futuristic way to grow chemical less toxic metal free food, it also make healthy green environment at home.
