Nowadays, there are many issues that we can hear about water pollution in this
world. This is due to the absence of awareness among the society to take care of our
environment. One of the causes is waste disposal. Many of them still throw garbage into
river and drain that will cause clogging. This is one of the causes of water pollution.
For example, we can see the picture above that is not pleasing to our eyes when
we see the situation. Is there no awareness within us to conserve the situation? If we
are aware, many things will happen if the situation continues. What will happen in the
future of our environment? As a community that has self-awareness about the needed
to take care of our environment, we should strive to prevent our community from
destroying our environment.

The picture above shows landslides that can cause water pollution. Water
pollution is a very critically problems because we need to use water everyday. A man
cans life without food till a week but he cans life without water one or two days only.

As we know, landslide occurred because there a irresponsible human who cut

the trees in the hill. Then, mud flood will occurred when rains falls into the landslide. It
may block drainage at once give more trouble to others. Besides that, a chemical
substance from the soil can cause water pollution during landslide occurred. If a
chemical substance exists, the trees will die.

Landslide also can change the colour of water. For example, when the water
mixed with landslide, it can change the colour from clear to fog. We do not want to use
water that had a polluted because the person who used pollutes water, they can get a
sick.

I hope the local authorities can play the roll to overcome these problems. Love
Our Water.

The above image shows the oil spill caused by oil spills in the factory. It causes
toxic waste in the oil continues to flow into the river and cause aquatic dead. It occurs
when the waste plant is not managed properly because the waste oil continues to
flow in the rivers.

It also affects people's own source of protein, which is fish. Fish derived from
waterish also affected because of living in the area of water affected by waste oil spills,
whether from plants or from spills at sea.

Oil spill that occurred at sea can also cause a lot of things that will be affected,
mainly fish, which is a source of human food as found in the second picture. It may
be due to ship the waste oil into the sea, ships and so explosive, and may
because Tupan oil rigs as they did in the picture into three.

The picture above shows the example of the effect of landslide. Mud flows is one
of the example which we can easily seen. Mud flow may effects human life such as lost
of property. The mud will sink houses, cars and many more which we cannot imagine.
Other than that, mud flow also may cause death to all living things. The mud with
high speed rates will force all living things especially human buried inside it. Besides, it
also may cause problems to people to find their family after the incidents.

Furthermore, mud flows will pollute the water. This is because the mud will mix
with water and all the chemicals substances from the fertilizers use by human. In
addition, the situation will become worst when it rain. Thus, the mud will become wet
and it will complicate our movements.

As a conclusion, a mud flow is an obstacle for us. So, everybody must take
action before we cannot prevent it anymore. I suggest for all human being to support all
the organization that trying to overcome this problem.
 DIFFICULTY TO FISHERMAN

The effect is, life becomes increasingly difficult fishing, livelihoods

are affected and human resources are also affected. This is because fish is
a fish exposed to oil spill contaminated with toxic waste found in the oil. Men will not buy
fish contaminated tap fear of their health and income of fishermen will be affected if
people do not want to buy the contaminated fish.

Steps should be taken is to operate waste oil with more careful because the
oil spill will cause things to not only affected the aquatic life but also affected.
