Yes, pollution is becoming a big problem in my country as a lot of industries are sending their waste products into rivers and streams which pollutes the water. It causes a lot of death in fish and also affects a lot of plants that are around as well. And not to mention that people use this water for drinking purposes and when these industries pollute this water with chemical wastes, it can go into people’s system and cause health problems. Most of the causes of water pollution are because of improportable sewage disposal and also industrial waste that is diverted into these water streams. I think as individuals we should learn to dispose rubbish into certain areas and for example there is rubbish bins that separate into biodegradable plastics, metals and paper and we should as individuals follow this. I do believe that in the future this problem will be solved as a waste of waste.
