There are numerous issues that must be addressed and overcome today, but it is impossible to ignore environmental pollution. In particular, water pollution has nearly reached an alarming level, necessitating immediate solutions. It is critical that the government, as well as each individual, work together. There are many causes, but one that I personally believe to be the most common and difficult to overcome is trash from untreated factories, which is thrown directly into rivers and lakes, hurting the aquatic environment and the organisms that live there. Worse, river water is still used for primary activities in undeveloped areas. The repercussions are extremely serious, resulting in lung ailments, cancer, and other illnesses. Factory waste treatment systems must be built to reduce chemicals and trash in order to overcome this problem. It protects human health as well. It also helps to maintain a green, clean, and beautiful environment.
