Answer:

Sometimes soil pollution can contribute to the pollution of water. This occurs through surface runoff, often when it rains and polluted soil is carried to nearby bodies of water. This is a common problem near farmlands, where fertilizers and manures are used to help crops grow. Soil pollution can also infect water when the polluted soil leaches into groundwater, such as into wells and other drinking water sources.

Just as polluted soil can infect water, polluted water can infect soil. Acid rain, which is the result of polluted air, can fall on the soil, polluting it. (See References 2) Or a farmer can use a polluted water source to irrigate crops, ultimately endangering the crops by polluting the soil that they depend on for life.
