Abstract
Environmental change is considered as a major challenge for both the developed and developing countries in the world. It is a growing threat for human and environmental degradation. Cement industrial emissions are one of the major contributors in global environmental changes. Cement manufacturing is a highly major source of many harmful emissions such as nitrogen oxides, sulphur oxides, carbon dioxide and huge amount of noise, dust and smoke. The study aims to investigate the impact of cement industrial emissions on environmental components like air, water, soil in the Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir state. In this study, the researcher has deliberately selected all the three cement industries located at three different industrial sites in the study area. In this study, the investigator has selected 113 respondents from all the three cement industrial sites with the help of stratified random sampling method. All the respondents in this study were selected on the basis of distance i.e. those respondents were selected who are living within the half km from their respective cement plants. The study concludes that the surrounding environment has been affected in a number of ways due to the constant exposure of cement emissions.
