A Short Report on Water Pollution....

Water pollution has been a problem for a very long time. There are many different kinds of water pollution. Such as human and animal wastes, toxic industrial chemicals, agricultural residues, oil and heat. Since the beginning of civilization people have used our waters to dump their trash in. Rivers, streams, canals, lakes, and oceans are currently used as vessel  for every imaginable kinds of pollution. Lakes are especially polluted because they cannot cleanse themselves as rapidly as rivers or oceans does.

Polluted water may look clean or dirty, but it always  contains germs, chemicals or other materials that can cause illnesses or death.

A common kind of water pollution is the effect caused by heavy concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorous, which are used by plants for growth.

Another way in which Water may get polluted is by sedimentation, which is the result of poor soil conservation practices. Sediment fills water-supply reservoirs and clogs power turbines and irrigation pumps.

Lastly, degree of treatment and control of waste, disposal and use of adequately treated waste water, must be based on a consideration with all the technical factors of each drainage basin, in order to prevent any further contamination or harm to the environment.
