The polluted air and water also affect animals such as acid rain destroys aquatic life in water bodies.We are observing a regular increment in the temperature and express the concern for global warming. But is that enough to stop the pollution? Are we providing a fresh and clean atmosphere to our future generation? Answer is No. The problem of pollution is not the single instance,it is the group collaboration of instances.One person cannot stop it but it can pass to another one and trying to prevent at the best level.
Jared Snow Ms. Carrell English 1 AP 9/15/15 Water Contamination Water pollution is any chemical, physical, or biological change in the quality of water that has a harmful effect on any living thing that drinks it, uses it or lives in it. I have spent many hours of many days to research this topic to find out facts of water pollution and how to prevent it. According to Food and Water Watch there are over 780 million people all over the earth that are living without clean drinking water. Another fact is every 20 seconds a child under five years old dies from illnesses that are waterborne. There is a lot of information about water contamination, the main topics are, effects of the percentage of water contaminated, ways it gets contaminated, and what to do in the after-math.
Atmospheric pollution is caused by pollutants such as smoke from factories entering the atmosphere and being carried to waterways. Industrial waste can also create polluted runoff that collects in rivers and lakes. Another reason for water pollution is chemically treated sewage. This water carries harmful chemicals and high amounts of bacteria, which can potentially lead to serious diseases. Runoff from fields can contain chemical fertilizers and pesticides which can pollute
Water Pollution Water is said to be the cause of the earth. We can say that it is the lifeline of our ecological existence. But the precious gift of the nature which comprises of 70% of the earths surface is not that pure now. Day by day the quality of water is deteriorating and becoming unfit for human consumption. Like air pollution, water pollution can also be described to mean the adverse change in composition or condition of the water such that it becomes less suitable.
Planet earth is made up of over two-thirds of water and less than one-third of land. Having contaminated water, exposes us to significant health risks. Water pollution is caused by several different human activities that result in toxins, chemicals and waste in our water supply. A 1969 United Nations report defined ocean pollution as: "the introduction by man, directly or indirectly, of substances or energy into the marine environment (including estuaries) resulting in such deleterious effects as harm to living resources, hazards to human health, hindrance to marine activities, including fishing, impairment of quality for use of sea water and reduction of amenities." There are several types of water pollutants; one category is the microbiological,
Though earth is covered by 70% of water, hardly 2% is the drinkable water. Water pollution is on the major problem that demands attention to deal with the emerging water crisis due to mismanagement of resources and growing
. In this essay I'm going to about the water pollution caused by factories. As a group we choose to write about the life below water , and we are going to talk about the problems that related to the water . My problem is how the factories affect the water , every one know that the factories is a good thing , there are a lot of factories produce a lot of production for us , and i can say
WATER POLLUTION INTRODUCTION It is called ‘Pollution’, “when something is added to the environment that makes it unclean or unsafe” (C.Dozier, 2001,p1). According to Arvind Kumat, (2008,p.142) “Water pollution is defined as the addition of some substance (organic, inorganic, biological, and radiological) or factor (e.g. heat) which degrades the quality of water so that it either become a health hazard or unfit to use. Water pollution not only affects plants and organisms living in the bodies of water, but it also damages the natural biological communities. (Dingra and Singh,2004) Over 70% of the Earth’s surface is covered by water but less than 1% of it is available for drinking and agriculture; thus making water pollution a very significant issue.
Apart from that, the industrial development also contribute with the increase of water pollution all over the world. water is a very special and unique substances, because it can naturally cleanse and renew itself. it cleanse and renew itself by allow the pollutants to diluting or break down or settle out to the point that there are no harmful concentration but the natural process usually take a lot of time to make sure the water is free from the pollutions. At the
Water pollution occurs when toxic substances enter water bodies such as lakes, rivers, oceans and so on. This will affect the quality of water. Not only does this spell disaster for aquatic ecosystems, the pollutants also seep through and reach the groundwater, which might end up in our households as contaminated water that everyone use in our daily activities, including drinking. The effective ways that can control and solve the problem of water pollution today which are waste water treatment plant, reduce sewage and ocean cleanup. First of foremost, the solution of surface water pollution is waste water treatment plant.
