Reasons for water pollution

| AAAHH! THERE'S A FISH CAUGHT IN PLASTIC! How did this happen? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
| | |
| This could've happened because people littered! Plastic nets, garbage, and medical wastes are killing fish everyday! These fish could become tangles in the plastic or eat it and die! | |

| Are there any other kinds of water pollution? | |
| | |
|
|
| | |
| Ya! Sediment can destroy feeding grounds for fish. This is caused by poorly managed agriculture, ranching, mining, and construction. The fish and plant population is going down because of this! | |

| When I was in school, I heard something about oil spills! I don't really understand how it happens! Can you tell me? | |
| | |
|
|
| | |
| Mmhhmm! Oil going into large waters is caused by oil well blowouts, tanker spills, and inland disposal of oil. This hurts many fish! | |
