Agriculture also contributes, especially through the use of road salt and fertilizers, which can lead to runoff that contaminates water sources with excess salt. Lastly, salt mining operations can disrupt local ecosystems and contribute to soil salinization.

What is salt pollution?
This is the pollution of soils and waters with salt. In water salt pollution changes the osmotic pressure of aquatic organisms (leading to death) and in soil it changes the osmotic pressure for plant roots (death again) and destroys the ionic soil structures.
How does road salt affect surrounding plants?
The salt burns plants that are around the road that was salted.
When was Road Salt One created?
