Question

a factory located a river can cause any affect to the people living nearby​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Fertilizers and pesticides are harmful because they cause algae to grow. The algae then destroy water plants. Factories use water from rivers to power machinery or to cool down machinery. Dirty water containing chemicals is put back in the river.

Answer 2

The factory releases poisonous fumes that the people will breathe in. This may cause respiratory diseases. The factory also releases dirty water into the river which pollutes the river. This dirty water can also seep underneath and pollute groundwater. This water can also cause eutrophication, the leaking of nitrates into water. The factory will dump its waste nearby so it will create land pollution and waste may give off stench which harms the people and animals who try to eat the waste. Noise pollution will cause stress and it is most likely that heart attack rates will shoot up because of this.
