Whether it's streams, rivers, lakes, or the ocean, countries have taken great measures to maintain a high quality of water for both human consumption and as a key component to the environment. We deal with the pollution problems and then decide on ways to clean it up. This valuable resource is the key to survival. Both plants and animals depend on water for their growth, so the water must be kept clean. The major contributors to water pollution can be classified in three categories, industrial, agricultural and municipal. Examples of industrial wastes that can contaminant bodies of water are oil spills, acid rain, and waste run-off from industrial buildings and factories. Oil spills, even though they do not happen that often, can spill millions of gallons of its crude oil cargo into the ocean causing long term damage. The oil spreads out over the surface of the water, creating a deadly coating. It kills fish and animals and washes on shores polluting the beaches, shutting them down to the public. Once the oil has contaminated the water, immediate action must be taken to clean it out of the water. The most common procedure is to contain the oil with oil absorbent plastic booms and then skim the oil off the top of the water.

If the water is treated properly, it can prove beneficial. To know more information about sewage water pollution, read on... Sewage water pollution is one of the major problems in cities. The sewage water is drained off into rivers without treatment. The careless disposal of sewage water leads to a chain of problems, such as spreading of diseases, eutrophication, increase in Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), etc. The waste water that flows after being used for domestic, industrial and other purposes is termed as sewage water. In ideal situations, the sewage water is channeled or piped out of cities for treatment . Bulk of the sewage contains water as the main component, while other constituents include organic wastes and chemicals.

Extractions: A: Nonpoint source (NPS) pollution, unlike pollution from industrial and sewage treatment plants, comes from many diffuse sources. NPS pollution is caused by rainfall or snowmelt moving over and through the ground. As the runoff moves, it picks up and carries away natural and human-made pollutants, finally depositing them into lakes, rivers, wetlands, coastal waters, and even our underground sources of drinking water. These pollutants include: Excess fertilizers, herbicides, and insecticides from agricultural lands and residential areas; Oil, grease, and toxic chemicals from urban runoff and energy production;

Extractions: In the heart of the nation's capital, running from Bladensburg, Md., to Washington, D.C., is a river that is a poster child for America's tragically neglected, abused urban waterways. Although the eight-mile-long Anacostia River is surrounded by parkland, it is severely polluted by sediment, nutrients, pathogens, toxins and trash. Because the Anacostia is relatively flat and extremely tidal, it moves and flushes itself slowly, making it especially vulnerable to contamination. It's unsafe to swim in the Anacostia, or to eat its fish. Yet its troubles, though extreme, are hardly unique: Similar problems plague many of our country's urban and suburban rivers. It is a national embarrassment that the Anacostia often called "the Forgotten River" flows in the shadow of the Capitol building. Once a river that sustained abundant populations of fish, birds and other wildlife, the Anacostia is now impoverished and underused, flowing through some of Washington's poorest communities. But an effort to restore the Anacostia is getting underway. And if the District of Columbia, other local communities, the federal government, and businesses and individuals within the Anacostia watershed can work together to bring this river back, it can once again be an important asset to the community and a shining example the rest of the nation sorely needs.

Extractions: Lesson Plan #:AELP-ENV0065 An Educator's Reference Desk Lesson Plan Author: David A. Gillam, Susitna Elementary, Anchorage, AK Date: May 1994 Grade Level(s): Kindergarten, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Subject(s): OVERVIEW: There are a wide variety of pollutants that can affect water and the plants and animals that live in the water. This pollution can be divided into three groups: chemical pollution, thermal pollution, and ecological pollution. Since not all pollution is human produced students need to understand that there are sometimes "natural" reasons for some pollution. PURPOSE: These activities will help students' understanding of water pollution and its potential effects on human and wildlife habitats. OBJECTIVES: Students will be able to: Identify 2 or more pollutants in a bog, marsh, stream or other wetland area. Relate a pollution prevention message through words and art. Understand that some pollutants can not be seen. ACTIVITIES: For this activity you will need paper, crayons, markers, crayon pastels and other art supplies. Review with the students the types of pollution that they know about. Talk about the ways people can help prevent certain kinds of water pollution. List them on the chalk board. Have students draw a picture showing how to prevent pollution of a wetland of other water source. Encourage students to think about the source of the pollution and ways to either prevent or ways to dispose of some pollutants.
