Air pollution, water pollution, ground pollution, light pollution (interferes with observing the sky at night; is caused by unshielded artificial lights), and noise pollution.
Causes for ground water pollution are: *Improper on-site disposal of wastewater from domestic holds as well as from industries *Over extraction of ground water in coastal areas causing intrusion of sea water into ground water acquifer *Removal of top soil for construction activities, quarrying of minerals, etc. *Paving ground surfaces preventing rain water to percolate into ground water acquifer and thereby prevention of dilution of pollution in ground water *Improper sealing of wastewater treatment plants without properly determining the permeability of soil strata

Water pollution is a huge concern as there will be no water left for us if we pollute them like this. Fishes and other organisms suffer due to water pollution, water pollution even disturbs the cycle of the nature.
it affects the water as it errodes
why ground water free from diseases and microorganisms?
