2. oil leakage would leave a layer of oil on the sea surface, blocking air from entering the sea and providing the living things in the sea with very little oxygen, causing them to die ; deforestation leaves dirt and piles of soil on the forest grounds, allowing the wind to bring them to water bodies and leave them to float there, causing the aquatic creatures in those water bodies to eat the dirt. ]]> 2020-03-13 02:37:55 UTC https://padlet.com/fairuzaman1982/5Fmarch2020/wish/459660108 Fan Zhen https://padlet.com/fairuzaman1982/5Fmarch2020/wish/459660711 Underwater plants will not be able to survive as no sunlight can reach it , so there is no photosynthesis.

The most common causes of water pollution are human activities, such as littering and dumping of waste, oil spills and deforestation.
2. Polluted water bodies can be unsightly and may give off foul-smelling gases. Some forms of water pollution such as oil spills can harm or even kill plants and animals. Oil spills cause a layer of oil to form on the sea surface so that plants cannot trap sunlight to make food. animals are also not able to breathe in the polluted water. Furthermore, when water is polluted, it is no longer safe to use. This means than humans will have less usable water. Lastly, polluted water needs to be treated before it can be used. Treatment of water requires time and money.]]> 2020-03-13 02:58:54 UTC https://padlet.com/fairuzaman1982/5Fmarch2020/wish/459666706 Ashley https://padlet.com/fairuzaman1982/5Fmarch2020/wish/459668272 1.The cause of water pollution is because of humans.We throw rubbish into the sea as we think it is a hassle to throw it in the bin.
2.Plants will not be able to get sunlight for photosynthesis and they cannot make food.Thus, they will die.
3.Animals like turtles will think that the plastics are jellyfish,so they will eat it amd it will cause them to suffocate and die.
4.Humans like us will have dirty water and contaminated water.If we drink all those dirty water, we might get diseases and stomach problems.

Can you imagine eating a salmon with it's gut full of biodegrades?),  urbanisation and damming or rivers
2) Sea creatures and water plants will contract illnesses from the germs, and if these irresponsible actions continue to go on, they will become extinct. This will also affect our health as we go on to consume the fishes.

  • What are some causes of water pollution?
    • Firstly, the disappearance of biodiversity and aquatic ecosystems. Also, humans are harmed by the alteration in the food chain and by contracting illnesses when drinking or using contaminated water. As you can see, water pollution has a great impact in the environment.Firstly, the disappearance of biodiversity and aquatic ecosystems.

    2. it causes the disappearance of biodiversity and aquatic ecosystems. also, humans are harmed by the alteration in the food chain and by getting illnesses of using contaminated water. as you can see, water pollution ha a grat impact on the environment.

Industrial effluent contains chemical and organic pollutants. Domestic wastewater contains mainly organic pollutants, both suspended and dissolved solids.

    2. In Singapore, potential pollutants include construction runoff, trash and chemicals. Poor trash disposal by park visitors, especially to unprotected areas, will also negatively affect the water quality.

    Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies,usually as a result of human activities.Water bodies include for example lakes,rivers,oceans,aquifer and groundwater.Water pollution results when contaminants are introduced into the natural environment.
    _______________________________
    Various sources of water  pollution.
    There are various classifications of water pollution. The two chief sources of water pollution can be seen as Point and Non-point.

    Point refers to pollutants that belong to a single source.

    Non-point , on the other hand , means pollutants emitted from multiple sources. 

    Various causes of water pollution.
    1.Industrial waste.
    2.Sewage and wastewater.
    3.Mining activities
    4.Marine dumping.
    5.Accidental oil leakage.
    6.The burning of fossil fuels.
    7.Chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
    8.Leakage from sewer lines.
    9.Global warming.
    10.Radioactive waste.
    11.Urban development.
    12.Leakage from the landfills.
    13.Animal waste.
    14.Underground storage leakage.

    What is water pollution effects?
    The main problem caused by water pollution is that it kills organisms that depend on these water bodies.Dead fish,crabs,birds and sea gulls,dolphins and many other animals often wind up on beaches, killed by pollutants in their habitat.Pollution disrupts the natural food chain as well. 
    _______________________________
    Why is water pollution a problem?
    Water covers over 70% of the Earth's surface and is a very important resource for people and the environment.Water pollution affects drinking water,rivers,lakes and ocean all over the world.This consequently harms human health and the natural environment.
    _______________________________
    How could we stop water pollution?
    Do not throw paints ,oils or other forms of litter down the drain.Use environmentally household products ,such as washing powders,household agents and toiletries. Take great care not to overuse pesticides and fertilizers.This will prevent runoffs off the materials into nearby water sources.
    _______________________________
    How do we control pollution?
    1.Reduce he number of trips you take in your car. 
    2.Reduce or eliminate fireplace and wood stove use.
    3.Avoid burning leaves,trash and other materials.
    4.Avoid using gas-powered lawn and garden equipment.
    _______________________________
    Bonus Fact!!!
    How polluted is the world?
    Each year 1.2 trillion gallons of untreated sewage,stormwater, and industrial waste are dumped into US water.While children make up 10% of the world's population,over 40% of the global burden of disease falls on them. More than 3 million children under age five(5) die annually from environmental factors.

Known as a “universal solvent,” water is able to dissolve more substances than any other liquid on earth. It’s the reason we have Kool-Aid and brilliant blue waterfalls. It’s also why water is so easily polluted. Toxic substances from farms, towns, and factories readily dissolve into and mix with it, causing water pollution and the disappearance of biodiversity and the aquatic ecosystem.
    2. In order to thrive, healthy ecosystems rely on a complex web of animals, plants, bacteria, and fungi—all of which interact, directly or indirectly, with each other. Harm to any of these organisms can create a chain effect, imperiling entire aquatic environments.
    When water pollution causes an algal bloom in a lake or marine environment, the proliferation of newly introduced nutrients stimulates plant and algae growth, which in turn reduces oxygen levels in the water. This dearth of oxygen, known as eutrophication, suffocates plants and animals and can create “dead zones,” where waters are essentially devoid of life. In certain cases, these harmful algal blooms can also produce neurotoxins that affect wildlife, from whales to sea turtles. Contaminated water can also make you ill. Every year, unsafe water sickens about 1 billion people.]]>     2020-03-19 08:59:43 UTC https://padlet.com/fairuzaman1982/5Fmarch2020/wish/465889357
