how pollution causes water?
The addition of harmful or toxic material that results in degradation of the quality of water is termed as water pollution. Today, it has become a global concern, with an annual average of 5 million people dying because of water-related problems. The most abundant resource (water) on our planet Earth has been adulterated by mankind to a great extent for various personal gains. The pollutants are effluent outputs from refineries, factories, waste treatment plants, water supply from groundwater systems that have fertilizers, pesticides, and industrial wastes. Also, the emission projected into the atmosphere through bakeries, factories and automobiles play a big role in contaminating the water all around.
