Hello welcome to this pamphlet. It is about Fresh Water Pollution. Shane S. Henry L. and Deidra M. from Mr. G’s science class produced this. Fresh water Pollution is when oil, gas or any other chemical or object that is dangerous to the water and the species in it gets into the water.



What is water Pollution?

Water Pollution occurs when waste products or other substance change the physical, thermal  (heat), chemical or biological chrematistics of the water, adversity affecting species and reducing the waters beneficial uses.



What are some of the sources of water pollution?

The potential to pollute water in many ways run off from streets carries oil, rubbers heavy metals and other containments from automobiles. Untreated or poorly treated sewage can be low dissolved oxygen and high in pollutants. Such as fecal coli form bacteria it rates phosphors, chemicals, and other bacteria.



What are nitrates and how do they get into our water supply?

Natural Compound presents in all ecosystems. It is one of the chemicals essential to plant life. Much can be problem for plants and animals. It is also a composite of chemical and manure based fertilizers.

Properly recycle or dispose of pollutions before they contaminate soil water and air

The EPA has established a maximum contamination level of nitrates to be 10mg/L. That is not that high. And it is important that we only drink this much because we could get very sick and die!  

What is considered to be the safe level for nitrates in drinking water?

The EPA has established a maximum contamination level of nitrates to be 10mg/L. That is not that high. And it is important that we only drink this much because we could get very sick and die!  

What are some of the consequences of water pollution?

It affects and moderate temperatures and dramatically influence global climate. The oceans recycle and clean the air we breathe every day!

What should a person do if there are high nitrate levels in their water supply?

You should contact their heath recourses. You should only drink bottled water if you have heard that any one around you that has high nitrate level in their water supply.







What can be done to improve the quality of water after it has become polluted?

Solutions involve finding sustainable ways for the urban area to reduce both its independence on pollutions and the amounts of pollutions it produces. We need to do a lot of things including. Properly recycle or dispose of pollutions before they contaminate soil water and air.







What can be done to improve the quality of water after it has become polluted?

Solutions involve finishing sustainable ways for the urban area to reduce both its independence and pollution. The amounts of pollutants before they contaminate soil water and oil.



What are some actions that can be taken to help prevent water from becoming polluted?

Get a big can or box and put it in the ocean then suck up all the pollution from the water. It will be like a filter in the ocean. We can also just not drive as much and the gas from the car will help to not pollute the water.

What are point and non-point sources and how are they different?

Point and non-point sources of pollution are the following. A point source is oblivious pollution like a pipe gushing sudsy water into a river. A non-point source is like a point source you cannot point at or see.
