世界上的最严重的十大环境污染事例有哪些？

一、北美死湖事件

1、美国和加拿大是西半球工业最发达的地区，每年排放二氧化硫2500多万吨。1970年开始，这些工业最发达的地区出现了大面积酸雨区，酸雨甚至比的上柠檬汁，许多湖泊的生物都死乐，森林树木枯萎。

二、卡迪兹号油轮事件

1、1978年3月16日，美国2超级油轮“卡迪兹号”，载着伊朗原油向鹿特丹驶去，在航行到法国布列塔尼的海岸触礁然后沉没，22.4万吨的原油漏出，污染了超过350公里长的海岸线。

2、光是牡蛎就死掉上千多吨，而海鸟也死亡接近2万多吨。这次的事件损失1亿多美元，污染和治理费用高达5亿多美元，而被污海洋生态环境造成的损失难以估量。

三、墨西哥湾井喷事件

1、1979年6月3日，墨西哥石油公司的平台钻机打入水下3000多米深的海底油层时，突然发生严重井喷原油泄漏，污染了这一带的海洋环境。

四、库巴唐“死亡谷”事件

1、巴西圣保罗的库巴唐市的企业主只顾赚钱，随意排放废工业气体工业废水，谷地浓烟弥漫、臭水不断，有20%的人得了呼吸道过敏症，使2万多贫民窟居民严重受害。

五、西德森林枯死病事件

1、原西德的森林被酸雨侵蚀的有34%染上枯死病，每年枯死的蓄积量占同年森林生长量的21%多，先后有80多万公顷森林被毁。

2、受酸雨的影响，在巴伐利亚国家公园的每棵树都得了枯死病。黑森州海拔500米以上的枞树相继枯死，全州57%的松树病入膏荒。

3、巴登-符腾堡州的“黑森林”，是因枞、松绿的发黑而得名，是欧洲著名的度假圣地，也有一半树染上枯死病，树叶黄褐脱落，其中46万亩完全死亡。汉堡也有3/4的树木面临死亡。当时鲁尔工业区的森林里，到处可见秃树、死鸟、死蜂，该区儿童每年有数万人感染特殊的喉炎症。

六、印度博帕尔公害事件

1、午夜，在博帕尔市郊的“联合碳化杀虫剂厂”一座存贮45吨异氰酸甲酯贮槽的保安阀出现毒气泄漏事故，形成了一个方圆25英里的毒雾笼罩区。
