Some consider heating of open bodies of water by discharge from industrial plants to be pollution on the theory that it adversely affects the lives of the fish in the water. In some such cases, it has been demonstrated that the fish thrived in the warmer water.

What is trimal pollution?

First it's Thermal Thermal pollution is a temperature change in natural water bodies caused by human influence. The temperature change can be upwards or downwards. In the Northern Hemisphere, a common cause of thermal pollution is the use of water as a coolant, especially in power plants. Water used as a coolant is returned to the natural environment at a higher temperature. Increases in water temperature can impact on aquatic organisms by (a) decreasing oxygen supply, (b) killing fish juveniles which are vulnerable to small increases in temperature, and (c) affecting ecosystem composition. In the Southern Hemisphere, thermal pollution is commonly caused by the release of very cold water from the base of reservoirs, with severe affects on fish (particularly eggs and larvae), macroinvertebrates and river productivity.
