Rainwater that is heated after falling on warm roads or parking lots is often referred to as "thermal pollution." This process occurs when the rainwater absorbs heat from the surfaces it comes into contact with, raising its temperature. As a result, this warmer water can negatively impact local water bodies when it runs off into them, potentially altering ecosystems and affecting aquatic life due to temperature changes. Additionally, heated rainwater can contribute to urban heat islands, exacerbating the overall temperature in urban areas.

What does acid rain do to your roads and highways and bridges?
It also causes our roads, highways, and bridges to corrode and become weaker. This is a huge safety hazard not only for roads and highways, but also for bridges because if a bridge is weak, it will collapse. It costs a lot of money to keep replacing the roads, highways and bridges, and it comes out of our tax money.wanker wanker wanker hahaha lol

Which are the two types of rainwater harvesting?
There are two types or rainwater haversting. Rooftop rainwater harvesting and drain harvesting. In rooftop rainwater harvesting, we use the water collected on rooftops instead of letting it go down the drain. We can also use water collected in dugout ponds, underground vessels etc. Drain harvesting involves letting water collected in roadside drains go straight to the ground. But this water has to be treated before use as it may contain bird faeces, germs and other pollutants.
Who built the first road?
The first indications of constructed roads date from about 4000 BC and consist of stone paved streets at Ur in modern-day Iraq and timber roads preserved in a swamp in Glastonbury, England.
