What is water
pollution?
Well Pollution is the
contamination of the
natural environment
with harmful
substances often as
a consequence of
human activities.
Water pollution is an undesirable
change in the state of water,
contaminated with harmful
substances. It is the second most
important environmental issue next
to air pollution.
There are many
differents types of
pollution as:

• Water pollution
• Air pollution
• Land contamination
How does water
pollution occurr?
Water pollution ocurrs when a lot of
chemicals, sewage and fertilizers are
dropped and if it is not treated before
being discharged
into waterways,
serious pollution
is the result.
Types of water pollution

 Microbiological

Chemical

Oxygen-depleting Substances

Nutrients
CAUSES
Domestic households, industrial and
agricultural practices produce
wastewater that can cause pollution of
many lakes and rivers.
Dumping of litter in the sea can cause
huge problems in marine animals and
may result in death.
Nuclear waste is
produced from
industrial, medical and
scientific processes
that use radioactive
material. Nuclear
waste can have
detrimental effects
on marine habitats
Effects of water
pollution
The effects of water pollution
are not only devastating to
people but also to animals, fish,
and birds. Polluted water is
unsuitable for drinking,
recreation, agriculture, and
industry.
• poisoning drinking
water
• poisoning food
animals
• unbalanced river and
lake ecosystems
that can’t
support full
biological diversity
any more
• deforestation from
acid rain, and
many others.
What You Can Do
• Be careful about what you
throw down your sink or
toilet.
• Use environmentally
household products, such
as washing powder,
household cleaning agents
and toiletries.
• Take great care not to
overuse pesticides and
fertilisers.
• Don't throw litter into
rivers, lakes or oceans.
Planting more trees can
also prevent water pollution
by reducing soil erosion
and water runoff i think
that educating people
about water pollution is an
important way of
preventing water pollution.
CONCLUSION
I think that we have
to change our habits
because the water is a
natural resource very
important and if we
follow the same way
till now, one day
maybe our sons woke
up and they won´t
have water to drink.
