The Flow

There are some things in our life is necessary and important like food , air and water . there is information said that the world cover 70 percent pf the earth surface . The humans , animals and plants they cannot live without the water that show how much the water is important ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water ) . There are many uses for the water like for the plants , drinking , food , agriculture and hygiene . In this report I will talk about the water and I will talk about problem and the solution of water pollution .

First , I will talk about the water pollution . All water pollution affects organisms and plants that live in these bodies of water and in almost all cases the effect is damaging either to individual species and populations but also to the natural biological communities (www.umich.edu/~gs265/society/waterpollution.htm ) . There are 1.1 billion of people don’t have access to clean water and also there are more than 2 million die every year because the dirty and the unclean water . The most countries that have a dirty water is in Africa , because there are many poor countries in Africa and they have lack in the food and in the water so there are many people in Africa drink in unclean water ( www.sustainabletable.org/issues/waterpollution ) .

Secondly , the water can causes many diseases and also it can be dangerous for the people . Waterborne diseases are caused by pathogenic microorganisms which are directly transmitted when contaminated fresh water is consumed. Contaminated fresh water, used in the preparation of food, can be the source of foodborne disease through consumption of the same microorganisms ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterborne_diseases ) . Some other companies has hand on the water pollution because they throw there dirty things in the water without taking care about the people who swim or using the water and also some people throw the garbage in the sea . Also the swimming in the pool can causes problem , The most common illness caused by swimming in contaminated water is gastroenteritis. other types of contamination caused infections many develop like on your skin, in an open wound and in your eyes, ears, nose and throat ( www.cdc.gov/healthywater/swimming ) .

There are solution for the water pollution is to be stand for the companies who throw their garbage in the water and talk to them that how much the important the water is ( www.cdc.gov/ncidod/Diseases/water/index.htm ) . Also the people who throw things in the water they must punish him and there must be a discourse with people to know how much the water is .

In conclusion , I think the water pollution is a big problem and it must be care from the companies and the people to be the water clean for their air , life and their children .
