QUÉ SIGNIFICA POLLUTANT EN INGLÉS
Contaminante
Un contaminante es una sustancia o energía introducida en el ambiente que tiene efectos no deseados, o afecta adversamente la utilidad de un recurso. Un contaminante puede causar daño a largo o corto plazo cambiando la tasa de crecimiento de especies vegetales o animales, o interfiriendo con los servicios humanos, confort, salud o valores de propiedad. Algunos contaminantes son biodegradables y por lo tanto no persistirán en el medio ambiente a largo plazo. Sin embargo, los productos de degradación de algunos contaminantes son ellos mismos contaminantes tales como los productos DDE y DDD producidos por la degradación del DDT.
