Expert Answer
(a) The El Nino effect refers to uneven climatic changes due to rise in temperature. It leads to increased melting of polar ice caps as well as other places like the Himalayan snow caps. This results in the rise in the sea level which can submerge many coastal areas, thus resulting in biodiversity loss.
(b) Measures to reduce environmental pollution: (i) Use of renewable energy resources
(ii) Use of television and other instruments at low pitch (iii) Minimum use of fossil fuels
(iv) No tobacco smoking
(v) Planting more trees
