Everyday there is  a bunch of garbage that is  dumped into our oceans every day.

Pollution is something that we struggle with everyday, like not clean water or a lot of trash filling

up our environment. Today I’m going to be talking about pollution that is harmful to the oceans,

and  animals in the ocean. There are so many animals that die each day because of people’s terrible

actions. Many animals such as birds and fish mistake the trash for food and can then lead to fatal

damage.

When land is plowed, the soil can erode during storms. Most of it flows into the sea, carrying

agricultural fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides. Agricultural fertilizers are made from animal

and plant wastes, treated sewage, and sludge.Pesticides are used for killing insects and small

organisms, which spill in the water and pollute our ocean. A herbicide is a toxic substance used to kill

plants and unwanted vegetation, which then gets in our ocean and pollutes it.

Some pollution can actually start from air pollution, which then settles in waterways and oceans.

Air pollution starts when harmful substances including particulates and biological molecules are

introduced into Earth’s atmosphere. This can cause diseases and can be harmful to humans and

animals. Sewage contains harmful chemicals that alter the marine environment.

Many people litter without even noticing, when we litter many animals can eat the trash or they

can get caught in  it and not be able to breathe. It’so sad to think that one simple action can lead

to take many animals lives and you didn’t even know. So if you ever find a piece of trash on the

ground, then pick it up, you could be saving many animals lives and you could take one second

out of your day just to bend down and pick up a piece of trash.

It is estimated that 1.3 million gallons of oil is spilled into the ocean each year. Oil spreads

rapidly when in the water, so a big oil spill could easily double the amount of oil spilled each

year into our oceans. Gasoline and diesel molecules are smaller particles so they evaporate faster,

these oils are so toxic to our environment, humans, and animals,it can easily kill an organism that

breathes in these fuels.

Thank you for listening to my report on pollution and I hope you enjoyed and learned something

new today Thank You!
