7. The causes of water pollution
Marine dumping
Dumping of litter in the sea can cause huge
problems. Litter items such as 6-pack
ring packaging can get caught in marine animals
and may result in death.
10. Unfortunately, the everyday products we use, such
as household cleaning products, personal hygiene
products and pharmaceutical medications are some
of the most significant causes of water pollution. .
11. Pesticides are one of the most significant causes of water
pollution. Many think this only applies to farmers whom
spray large crop fields with chemical pesticides. The
reality is, the lawn products that everyday suburban
residents apply to their home lawns results in a higher
pollution per square foot than the farms. In some
regions, the ability to remove specific pesticide
contaminants in the water purification process is an
investment that can cost hundreds of millions of dollars
per year.
