Pollution in the water
Our rivers, reservoirs, lakes and seas are drowning in chemicals, waste, plastics and other pollutants. Around 80% of the world's wastewater is dumped mostly untreated into the environment, polluting rivers, lakes and oceans.
INDUSTRY WASTE
Industry waste is one of the main pollution factors.
DEFORESTATION
The felling of trees causes the appearance of sediments that harm water quality.
OIL SPILLS
Oil spills are one of the most common causes of water pollution.
SEWAGE
Wastewater from homes, industry, and other everyday human uses contaminates water.
Water pollution affects animals in several ways, such as disease, deformations, damage to the immune system, and death. Water pollution can unbalance aquatic ecosystems by affecting the food chain and biodiversity.
