The planet in which we live know to us as "Earth" it is the only planet where life exists. The three-fourth part of earth is covered with water that is the reason why this planet is called the "blue planet". Nearly (80-90)% of water are found in oceans that is not good for drinking. The other (8-9)% are fond in seas,rivers. Less than 1% of fresh water is available in the form ofgroundwater,ponds,lakes,etc. This fresh water is good for drinking purpose.But this fresh water are also getting polluted day by day making unsafe for drinking. The reasons are:- 1.Industrial Waste-These waste contain such harmful chemicals like sulphur dioxide,etc. The industrial waste before being treated are released into the rivers,lakes,ponds,etc. making unsafe for drinking. 2.Oil minning-Minning of oil from deep inside the sea is one of the main reason for water pollution. Due to this causes oil pollution i..s making the water oil polluted. 3.Releasing of garbage and waste-We the people throw garbage and waste into the sea thinking as if it is a dustbin and making them polluted. realising of idols of God make the water polluted. 4.Release of Chemical-various chemicals like potassium.nitro oxide are used in field for better and more production of crops.But,this chemical gets washed away due to irrigation and they entered into the groundwater making them polluted. Effects of water pollution:- 1.The contaminated water while drinking causes jaundice,diarrohea,thypoid 2.Due to water pollution causes death to aquatic animals like fish,ducks,etc.and due to which water gets polluted.
