All types of pollution in the environment gradually take their route to water in one way or another causing water pollution.

Water pollution is considered one of the most dangerous forms of pollution as water is the basis of all the forms of life on earth. Most of the deadly forms of water contamination are caused by man-made activities that result in the death and diseases of many organisms. It is responsible for the devastating effects on aquatic life as well as terrestrial life and can contain harmful disease-causing elements such as bacteria and viruses.

Toxic waste dumped into water bodies increases water pollution levels, gradually killing animals and plant life, destroying biodiversity, and decreasing the quality of oxygen in the water, leading to the death of living organisms.
