Water Pollution
  • Water pollution is the contamination
    of water bodies .This form of environmental
    degradation occurs when pollutants are directly
    or indirectly discharged into water bodies
    without adequate treatment to remove harmful
    compounds.
  • Water pollution affects the entire biosphere of
    plants and organisms living in these water
    bodies, as well as organisms and plants that
    might be exposed to the water. In almost all
    cases the effect is damaging not only to
    individual species and populations, but also to
    the natural biological communities.
