Water+Pollution+Speech

= = =Will We Ever Stop Polluting? = ===If we don't clean up the water, all the fish in the water and the animals that drink the water, will get sick and die. 14 billion pounds of sewage, sludge, and other things are dumped into waters. 19 trillion gallons of waste are also enter the waters each year. I think it is important for people to stop polluting the waters because I don't want all the animals to die because I love animals, and you probably do too. So, if we don't stop then they will die and our children won't ever get to see animals. ===  ==Water Pollution Causes There are two main categories of the causes of Water Pollution. One is direct and indirect contaminate sources. Direct sources include factories, refineries, and waste treatment plants. Indirect sources include contaminates entering the water supply from soils and groundwater systems. Soils and ground waters contain the residue of human agricultural practices (fertilizers and pesticides) and improperly disposed of industrial wastes. Many people believe that a lot of water pollution is caused by factories near rivers and lakes doing illegal dumping. While other people believe that it is individual people dumping into the waters. To me I think individual people and factories cause water pollution. == ==Water Pollution Effects == ===The effects of water pollution are varied. They include poisonous drinking water, poisonous food animals, unbalanced river and lake ecosystems than can no longer support full biological diversity, deforestation from acid ran, and many other effects. Boston Harbor is a strong example of how badly pollution can damage bodies of water. The water is filled with toxic waste and sewage, and routinely receives more waste when rainfall pushes it into the water. Dead fish, birds, dolphins and other animals often end up on the shore of a beach because people polluted the water. When you pollute the water, the water becomes toxic and makes animals die. === == Water Pollution Solutions == === === === There are many ways to minimize water pollution. Many laws have been created to restrict water pollution, however many countries do not restrict it. The USA Clean Water Act was written to put an end to all dumping in bodies of water, but that law has not had a very good effect, but in other locations, it has achieved many goals. The world has spent tremendous sums of money trying to clean up water. Nobody knows what our future will look like. Hopefully it will be clean. We can make it clean if we start cleaning up the world and helping out. ===

===14 trillion pounds of sewage, sludge, and other things are dumped into the bodies of water. 19 trillion gallons of waste also enter the waters each year. I think it is important to stop polluting because I don't want all the animals to die, because I love animals, and you probably do too. So stop polluting and start helping. If we don't cleanup waters, then all the fish that  live in the water and animals that drink out of it will get sick and die. Our future could look like this if we don't stop polluting, but if we work together to clean up our environment it could look like this. ===
