Nowadays,
Pollution
has become a major concern across the globe and
water
pollution
is one of the biggest issues for environmental protector as well as for citizens.In
this
,essay you can identify the reasons behind
water
pollution
and how they affect human and animal life in a negative way. To start with the reasons, Indrustlization has an important role to play in
water
contamination. Most of the industries,especially in underdeveloped and developing countries, realise their harmful chemicals and industrial waste in rivers and lakes without purifying them which can be one of the main hazards to pure
water
.
Secondly
, Human-made waste near natural
water
sources,
such
as popular tourist places, may lead to fouling of
water
. According to a survey conducted by the world health organization in 2016, one-
third
part of the
water
pollution
is due to man-made wastes
such
as plastic bottles, unwanted packets of food and many more.
As a result
of
this
,situation human life, as well as animal life, are endangered. Because hazardous content in
water
may reduce the breathable oxygen in the
water
, in turn, it is really hard for many
water
creatures to survive and they are now on a line of extinctions.Apart from
this
, only one-
third
of the
water
on the earth is drinkable. Due to our mistakes, even we are making that small amount of
water
polluted which may lead to
water
shortages in future. Not only
this
, animals and underprivileged segments of people
also
use river and lake
water
to drink
as a result
they might suffer from diseases
such
as Nigeria, food poison and so on.
Moreover
, agriculture
also
impacted heavily due to toxic
water
. All in all, development in the world of industries and humans are the reason behind the
water
pollution
and as result animals and even humans are suffered in various ways
such
as diseases, shortages of
water
and poor agriculture.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
