- Sit down, let me explain.
- Harmful substances contaminating the environment-Land, Air and water, which can have adverse effects on humans, animals and environment is called Pollution!
- 70 % of earth is covered with water, Water like air is life line not juts to humans but all life that exists!! I am very passionate and intrigued about aquatic life, there is a lot to learn about aquatic life and creatures which live under water. It makes we sad instead of learning and getting to know them we are destroying our water bodies!
- Wow ! you are so passionate about Earth and its animals!
- OK! There are many sources of water pollution! let me explain a few for you!
- Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies like rivers, oceans, aquifers, ground water or the sea. mst of the pollutions is caused by humans.
- Industrial, hazardous waste filled with lead, asbestos, petrochemicals and mercury whihc are very harmful for all life getting dumped into water bodies like rivers and lakes.
- Can you please tell me more about Aquatic Pollution ? what are its sources?
- Oil Spills from ships, tankers and machinery which forms a thick layer on seas and oceans! Oil doesnt dissolve and the sledge stays forevr!
- Dumping of plastic, aluminum to glass, styrofoam, ect which take for ever to decompose hurts aquatic life!
- Waste water and sewage waste from households , factories gets discharged into rivers and lakes.
- Agricultural waste of fertilizers and pesticides mix with rain water and flow into rivers and harm aquatic life!
- Ruining our ecosystem; Our ecosystem is fragile and water system is key to sustaining life and if we destroy our water bodies we destroy life!
- Eutrophication: The chemicals available in the water bodies promote growth of algae which forms thick layer over the ponds and lakes. this bacteria present in water tend to feed on algae, causing the amount of oxygen in the water to decrease, impacting the aquatic life!
- The damage of Aquatic pollution is not limited to Aquatic life, it hurts Humans and Animals too. We are polluting the drinking water! which is makes us sick. Humans are getting life threatening illnesses like Cholera, Typhoid, and many water borne diseses.
- Can you continue and educate me about the impacts of aquatic pollution?
- Adverse effect on food chain: Marine Species are obsorbing toxins and when other big fish and humans consume they fall sick too.
- Dumping of plastic and other harmful material in water bodies are being swallowed by small and big fish and they are dying.
- Sorry i didnt know i was hurting fish, HOw can we stop the pollutions?!
- Water Pollution can be controlled by large extent! Rather than releasing sewage water into water bodies, it is better to treat them and discharge .
- Some chemicals that help are precipitation, the ion exchange process and reverse osmosis and coagulation can really help!
- Minimising the use of pesticides and fertilizers. will help humans health and reduce water pollutiom
- Controlling the disposal of industrial, chemical and pharma waste and making sure these wastes dont mix in water bodies .
- Oil Spills from ships, tankers and machinery must be checked and make sure they dont mix in water bodies!
- First and foremost stop usage of plastic and stop trashing plastic and harmful stuff in water bidies.
- My family has stopped dumping pesticides, cleaners, household solvants, bleach, paint other checmicals. Dispose them properly and not flush them in toilet.
- But what can you and I do to help the environment?
- Recycle, reuse and reduce the usage of plastic as a family and as a community. We shop carefully with keeping water pollution in mind.
- First and foremost stop usage of plastic and stop trashing plastic and harmful stuff in water bodies. Eat organic pesticide free food.
- Do not pour fat and grease down the drain. Pipes and sewer will clog.. Dispose the medical waste like pills and syrenges properly! do not dump them in water bodies.
- Plant more trees areound water bodies There is Water hyacinth that obsorbs dissolved toxic sunstances like cadmium and mercury from water bodies!
- But what can you and I do to help the environment?
- Recycle, reuse and reduce the usage of plastic as a family and as a community. We shop carefully with keeping water pollution in mind. Buy biodegradable cleaners and pesticides.
- I decided to educate her about Pollution , different kinds of Pollution and more about Aquatic Pollution.
-
- It was interesting to see the little girls interest in knowing more about Pollution and my passion about Aquatic Life and why I was so concerned hwen she was dumping the plastic waste in Atlantic Ocean.
- I started by explaining what is water pollution and its sources!
- I explained her about pollutant sources from Industrial waste, Oil spills, Agricultural waste, Dumping of plastic and other harmful substances and sewage and waste water trash!
- I was surprised the little blue dress girl understood all the scientific terms!
- I explained her about the effects of pollution on Marine life and what happens when we drop plastic, and trash in water, and how fish and other water life die if they consume them!
- Than i explained how to reduce water pollution. Humans must control the pollution at source of pollution.. industrial, swage, agricultural, oil spills and others from mixing into water bodies,
- I was very happy to hear when the little girl asked me how she can make reduce pollution at her level! I felt like i did my part well explaining and creating awareness about water pollution!
- I explained her to buy home cleaning stuff carefully. Buy biodegradable cleaners and not flush medical and other waste in toilet and reduce our dependency on plastic!plants tress and eat less meat! By the time i finished my teaching we reached Statue of Liberty and we said out good byes! Little girl left with the pride of learning a very important life lesson!
