Industrialization And Oceans






The pollution in the oceans is a problem that is caused by industrialization. Big industries are dumping waste such as oil, fertilizers, solid garbage and toxic chemicals. In fact, ocean pollution directly affects humans by causing serious health problems. This pollution is also caused by boats. The chemical products ejected, when the engine is running on high speed, pollute water, and kill fish and other important marine animals. Secondly, this pollution is caused by garbage. Fore one hundred years, human have produced a lot of garbage and this has caused pollution problems in the ocean and killed many plants and animals. For example, cigarettes have killed many turtles. Thirdly, this pollution is caused by cars. One third of carbon dioxide produced by cars goes into the oceans and increases acidification. Solutions could be as easy as reinforcing present laws on this subject, but on a large scale pollution can be reduced by opposing coastal development or reducing mercury emissions
