Obviously, pollution is harmful towards living things. One example of pollution is oil spill. The oil floats on water and the fish that are coming up to the surface of the water to get air will suffocate. So, if the marine life dies just because of oil spill, most of the animals in the sea will be extinct. Just imagine eating fish and chips with just the chips. The pollution in the water MAY also affect the air around it, suffocating land animals including humans.

∙ 9y agoThe health effects of drinking unsafe water can range from no symptoms to severe illness or even death. Some of the effects of drinking contaminated water may not be noticed for many years. Nausea, vomiting, cramps, diarrhea, worms, hepatitis, typhoid and many other illnesses can occur if we drink unsafe water.

Yes they cause water pollution, as they are chemicals which are use to improved the quality and quantity of crops, but at last they settle at bottom of the crop, and get mixed with soil.
