CAUSES
1. Dumping of industrial wastes, containing heavy
metals, harmful chemicals, by-products, organic toxins
and oils, into the nearby source of water is one of the
visible causes of water pollution.
2. Another cause for the contamination of water is the
improper disposal of human and animal wastes.
3. Effluents from factories, refineries, injection wells and
sewage treatment plants are dumped into urban water
supplies, leading to water pollution.
4. A number of pollutants, both harmful and poisonous,
enter the groundwater systems through rain water.
EFFECTS
PREVENTION OF
WATER POLLUTION
1. Bringing Awareness
Measure 1 is bringing awareness among people. So people must be
against of dumping wastes and sewage in to fresh water. They must
force the government to go for an alternate way like treating the
sewage before dumping. And people who dump wastes must be
penalised
2. Leakages from Drainage Pipe Lines
Leakages from drainage pipe lines must be avoided. If this enters
fresh water it causes water pollution. So leakages must be avoided by
repairing immediately.
3. Industrial Wastes
Industrial wastes are the main cause of water pollution. They often
dump all these wastes in to near by lakes or rivers. So government
must pass strict orders not to dump wastes in to rivers. They must be
provided with other options like treatment of that wastes before
dumping.
