Natural pollution
Pollution is classified by its source. Natural pollution arises from natural processes and events without human involvement - volcanic eruptions releasing ash and sulphur dioxide, earthquakes, cyclones and floods spreading debris and silt, forest fires, and pollen.
Manmade (anthropogenic) pollution is caused by human activity such as vehicles, agriculture and urban waste; industrial pollution is a kind of manmade pollution from factories; accidental pollution results from human mishaps such as oil spills or gas leaks (e.g., the Bhopal gas tragedy). Earthquakes, cyclones and volcanoes fit none of these.
