Control measures of thermal pollution?

Thermal pollution is the result of water that is warmer than the natural temperature of a waterway being released into it. Heating or cooling water to match the temperature of the waterway before it is released will help to resolve thermal pollution.


Dose baking soda lower the temperature of water?

it raises the temperature.


Why is thermal pollution a problem and how does it impact the environment?

Thermal pollution is a problem because it raises the temperature of water bodies, which can harm aquatic ecosystems. Increased water temperature can decrease oxygen levels, disrupt the balance of aquatic life, and lead to the death of sensitive species. This can result in a decline in biodiversity and overall ecosystem health.
