Pollutants negatively affect a drainage basin. Pollution contaminates drinking water, destroys wildlife habitat, closes beaches, kills fish and causes many other serious environmental and public health problems.
1. We divert all water straight to a river using drains and gutters, where naturally it would take a lot longer to get to the nearest river therefore the river fills up more than it would naturally
2. We tarmac and concrete everything, therefore limiting the amount of water that can soak into the ground, again going to the nearest river.
3. We cut down forests which allows soil to run off into the river, therefore raising the river bed which can make floods more common.
4. We tend to straighten rivers to help control flooding but further downstream the water suddenly slows down causing flooding.
Pollution is horrible, but it happens all across the world. Pollution effects the wetlands, because it poisons the water supply, which kills the animals and plant that live there.
oil would make water
unsafe to drink
(1) The change in the environment caused by natural or artificial input of harmful contaminants into the environment, and may cause instability, disruption or harmful effects to the ecosystem.
An inventory of an ecosystem should ideally be taken on a regular basis to monitor changes over time. However, it is especially important to conduct an inventory when there are significant disturbances or changes to the ecosystem, such as a natural disaster or human activities that may have a significant impact on the biodiversity and functioning of the ecosystem.
Water pollution effects the ecosystem in many ways. One way is that it kills many aquatic plants animals and plants, it has almost made some species endangered. Another way is that this polluted water is drank by many terristial animals and this many land animals also die. It also affects the balance of the ecosystem. Sometimes the pollution causes the wrong things to grow more than normal and upsets the natural balance. For instance, phosphates can be used to help boost cleaning. But they can make their way into the ocean. Certain algae grow even faster from the phosphates. Then the algae kills or competes with other organisms, and these may be organisms that coral reefs or fish need to survive.
parts of ecosystems may be in another ecosystem, like say a evergreen pine tree was covered in water , or the land was flooded, that would be a part of land-based ecosystem in an aquatic ecosystem.
An ecosystem is the place where living & non-living components interact & support each other........so Biosphere is the largest ecosystem...& an aquarium may represents a small ecosystem
The consequences of river pollution are quite serious. Plants and animals in the river's ecosystem become damaged. If these are ingested by other animals, they may become ill, and even die off. If humans ingest these animal, they too may become ill. Not only will the river no longer be able to sustain life, it will be unsuitable for drinking, as well as start polluting whatever body of water the river drains into.
Imported species may damage the ecosystem.
it impact by the pollution that is burning cars buses may affect population and they might die ..
both are responsible for the pollution bacuse people do what is good for them & government may force people with appropriate laws to maintain the ecosystem clean.both can do something about this to keep our planet safe..
the waste goes into the river and may kill living things that live in that habitat

Two different forms of global pollution that describe how each may harm the local environment are:Air Pollution: Photochemical smog is bad to breathWater Pollution: Beaches collect trash and other unidentified Items. This trash can impact animal life
well one of the major side effects is pollution with toxic chemicals may be dumped into the river also acid rain coming from air pollution may cause the acidity of the lake to go up

The main impact of a tornado on ecosystems is the destruction of trees and other vegetation. Animals caught in a tornado may be killed or injured as well.
Liquid substances can be poured into lakes and river which the horses may drink and rubbish, well, they can get stuck or caught in it, or, they can eat it!
Fish and wildlife will suffer and may even disappear from the river completely. Such pollution can also affect people, either causing diseases, or preventing people from leisure activities, or even preventing employment along the river.
