How does water pollution affect the environment

Water pollution is when waste, chemicals, or other particles cause a body of water (i. e. rivers, oceans, lakes) to become harmful to the fish and animals that need the water to survive. Water pollution can disrupt and negatively impact nature's water cycle as well.

water pollution can affect the marine life by making the water uninhabitable. and some water sources are the only source for some people and cutting that off for the people would be a devastating thing.
