Why is river pollution considered as a danger ? Explain; Why is river pollution considered as a danger ? Explain

Answer 1

Because all of our planet’s landscape can be organized and classified by water basins; which consists on a portion of land that all of the falling rain water flows to the same point, known as the exutory.

It is well-known that human settlements tend to occur near fertile soil and fresh water resources to feed and sustain its population and social organisation.

So, as you pollute a natural water source it will spread its pollution through all of its basin, which wil eventually spread to basins next to it, and so it goes…

Then, you poison your source of irrigation (which will feed the crops>cattle) and sometimes direct human consumption (since an inexpressive percentual of the global population have access to basic sanitary needs), you will face serious public health issues, which cases can be observed at some Undeveloped Countries.

Water pollution is of great concern to the world. Water pollution in rivers causes a significant danger to human health because human beings depend on rivers for many daily activities and necessities such as drinking water.

Further, river water pollution affects the plants and other organisms living in it. It damages their individual species besides damaging their natural biological communities. It causes havoc to the ecological balance in the system. Less than 1% of the total water on the Earth is available as fresh water in lakes and rivers.

As this needs to support the entire human population; any pollution to this miniscule amount of water poses a significant danger to human life as well as to the wildlife dependent on it.
