Water is so easily polluted because of ground seepage. Water that is not needed in the ground will runoff into streams. If the ground has chemicals that would harm the stream or lake, the water is then polluted.

Both the Murray and the Darling Rivers of Australia suffer rising salinity problems.
yes very much so!!!!!!
yes
Almost all major rivers in Australia have been degraded by human activity but not necessarily "polluted" in the sense of toxic chemical or waste contamination. Because Australia is a very dry continent, diversion (damming) of rivers is an important water management tool but the lower flow in even the largest river system means that any pollutants are concentrated. The main pollutants are farm chemicals and fertilizer. Low flow and erosion are the main types of river degradation in Australia.
the Murray's water that reaches South Australia is laden with salt, agricultural chemicals and other pollutants
Newcastle is called the Pittsburgh of Australia because Newcastle was once a dirty and polluted town due to the factories. Newcastle was referred to this by writer Donald Horne.
