2.Dumping- Dumping of solid wastes and litters in water bodies causes huge problems. Litters include glass, plastic, aluminium, etc. Different things take different amount of time to degrade in water which affect aquatic life.
3.Industrial waste- Industrial waste contains pollutants like asbestos, lead, Mercury and petrochemicals which are extremely harmful to both people and environment.
4.Oil pollution- Sea water gets polluted during to oil spilled from ships and tankers while travelling. The spilled oil does not dissolve in water and forms a thick sludge polluting the water.
5.Acid rain- Acid rain is pollution of water caused by air pollution. When the acidic particles caused by air pollution in the atmosphere mix with water vapour. It results in acid rain.
6.Global warming- Due to global warming, there is an increase in water temperature. This increase in temperature results in death of aquatic plants and animals.
