This document discusses marine pollution, its causes, and impacts. It notes that marine pollution occurs when harmful chemicals, particles, waste or invasive species enter the oceans from land. Most marine pollution comes from non-point sources like agriculture and urban runoff. There are four main ways pollution enters the oceans: direct discharge of waste, runoff due to rain, ship pollution, and atmospheric pollution. Major impacts include eutrophication from excess nutrients and toxicity from hazardous chemicals. Many sea creatures are negatively affected by consuming plastic waste or through other effects of pollution. Prevention emphasizes spill detection and cleanup, regulation, emergency planning, and equipment for oil spill remediation.

Marine pollution comes from a variety of sources including land-based runoff, oil spills, sewage, heavy metals, and plastics. There are five main types of pollution inputs: direct discharge, runoff, ship pollution, atmospheric deposition, and deep sea mining. Ship pollution includes oil spills and cargo residues while atmospheric pollution includes dust and plastic debris. Deep sea mining disturbs habitats and causes plumes of sediment. Human impacts like eutrophication, acidification, plastic debris, and other toxins threaten marine life. Noise pollution from ships also affects animals, and mitigation requires education and pollution reduction efforts.
Recycling helps reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions which contributes to climate change. Proper recycling and reducing car, trash burning, and fireplace use can help lower air pollution. If plastic waste is not curbed, fish populations are at risk as many ingest plastic instead of food and can die with plastic in their stomachs, threatening fish in the seas.
Pollution is damage caused to water, air, and land by harmful substances or waste. There are four main types of pollution: air, water, noise, and land. Water pollution occurs when waste and chemicals make bodies of water harmful to fish and wildlife. Some of the most famous examples of water pollution have been oil spills. Air pollution is a mixture of particles and gases in the atmosphere, mainly caused by energy production and use. Noise pollution refers to loud sounds that can harm people and animals. Land pollution damages or contaminates the ground through trash, waste from homes and factories, and other human activities. Pollution control aims to regulate emissions into the air, water, and soil.

Impacts include destroyed coastal ecosystems, effects on tourism and fisheries, and health problems. While efforts have been made to protect coastal zones, more work is needed to fully address this issue.
Water is a tasteless and odorless liquid that is the main component of Earth's oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, and the fluids of most living organisms. It has the chemical formula H2O and occurs naturally as rain, snow, ice, glaciers, aquifers, and atmospheric water vapor. Water comes from surface sources like lakes and rivers, and groundwater that travels through cracks and openings in rocks beneath the Earth's surface. While the majority of water is ocean water, only a small fraction is available as fresh water for human use. Water pollution arises from contaminants introduced into water bodies through human activities and impacts the natural environment.
