Which is more dangerous point pollution or nonpoint pollution?
Point pollution is when the pollution happens right there, where the factory chimneys are, where the oil pipe breaks, or the oil tanker crashes, or the nuclear power plant explodes. The pollution is at the point where it happened.Non-point pollution is when the pollution happened somewhere else. Fumes escape from cars on the highway. The oil tanker crashed up there, but the pollution ran across the roads and landscape and into the ditch and into the waterways and into the ocean. The pollution ends up at the non-point where it happened.You can't say which is more dangerous, because it depends what the pollution is. A nuclear accident is usually more dangerous at point because the radiation weakens as it moves further away from the source. Oil pollution is damaging at point, but is more dangerous if the oil gets into the waterways and oceans where it can do a lot of damage. Pollution from a coal-burning power station is huge and constant.
