Water Pollution
Water Pollution in Environmental Chemistry refers to the introduction of harmful substances into bodies of water, making it unsuitable for use. This can occur through various means such as industrial waste, sewage and agricultural runoff. The presence of these pollutants can have devastating effects on aquatic ecosystems, leading to a decline in biodiversity and potentially impacting human health. In the context of Science, Environmental Science and Environmental Chemistry, Water Pollution encompasses the study of the sources, transport, fate, and effects of pollutants in water systems, as well as the development of strategies for their monitoring, control, and prevention.
