Pollution of rivers, lakes and seas is a major concern for people who seek to protect the environment. What are the possible causes of water pollution, and what effects does this have on animal life and human society?

One of the most important concerns of environmentalists is the pollution of the rivers, seas and

lakes

.

People

who care for nature and planet earth are seeking to protect

waters

from pollution. I think the main reason for

this

problem is industrial

wastes

. Industries are now dumping an increasing amount of

wastes

into the earth's oceans. These

wastes

include radioactive components of the nuclear sites, hospital, biomedical, and petroleum

wastes

. Nuclear

wastes

are so dangerous that they must be deposited in the deep holes into the earth's subsurface with lead shields to keep radiation waves from leakage out.

However

, some countries do not pay attention to these safety protocols and dump them into the seas and oceans.

Moreover

, oil companies can cause enormous environmental issues.

For instance

, a few years ago, one of the oil wells of the BP company blasted, and an unbelievable amount of oil spread out into the sea and polluted all the

waters

around from the rivers to

lakes

. It killed thousands of

fishes

. Industrial

wastes

pollute the earth’s

waters

, which put the lives of all living creaturs directly and indirectly in danger. Toxic

waters

can lead to the death of aquatics, which indirectly affects the lack of food both for humans and animals

such

as birds who consume

lakes

fishes

or bears who capture the river

fishes

.

In addition

, polluting the

waters

infect the underground and potable

waters

that make

people

sick. It

also

can ruin agricultural products and damage the trees.

For example

, the

wastes

from the

first

factory in the United States that manufactured Tefal pans and pots cause all nearby

waters

such

as

lakes

and rivers to be poisoned.

People

got serious diseases, some of them had painful death, many trees were destroyed, and many

fishes

died because of that toxic water. In conclusion, water pollution

as a result

of unloading industrial

wastes

impacts all humans, wildlife, and nature. It has the potential to kills animals, makes

people

sick, damages trees and agricultural products. The government must intervene by making new preventative laws.
