 it is common to see that a
lot
 of countries face the problem of
water
 pollution. There are a
lot
 of factories that throw away their exhaust fumes in the

 I will discuss the reasons for
water
 pollution and suggest some ways how to solve them. Nowadays
people
 build and open a
lot
 of new places,
such
 as technology or engineering factories, which produce fumes that affected not only the air but the
water
 too.
For instance
, some technical equipment can produce chemical things that are very dangerous and poisonous, so
water
 inhabitants will die because of breathing them. I think the way how factories can reduce their negative impact on
water
 is by cleaning from dirty substances. On top of that,
people
 enjoy having a rest near the sea, rivers or lakes. Usually,
such
 entertainment supports eating a
lot
 of food which is packed in plastic bags. After having a great time,
people
 tend to leave their rubbish or just throw it away in the
water
. So, we all know that

 turtles usually eat plastic
due to
 their confusing plastic bags for jellyfish.
Water
's inhabitants can not see the difference and will often eat the bag, which gets stuck in their stomachs.
Therefore
, they can not breathe and die. In my opinion, we can collect our garbage by ourselves because it does not take a
lot
 of time but saves plenty of turtle's life.
To conclude
, I would like to say that the problem with
water
 pollution is increasing every day. Only if
people
 start to understand that their actions will have a negative impact on their life in the nearest future, the situation can get better.
