How can alternative practices lead to a reduced impact on waterways?

Alternative practices, such as organic farming and permaculture, can significantly reduce the impact on waterways by minimizing the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides that often run off into streams and rivers.

Additionally, implementing buffer zones with native vegetation along waterways can help absorb pollutants and sediment, further protecting aquatic ecosystems. By prioritizing sustainable methods, these practices contribute to cleaner and healthier water sources.
