Water pollution happens when waste things from many areas are thrown into rivers,lakes and seas.
Agriculture
To get more food,farmers use large amounts of chemicals(化学制品).When the chemicals are not completely used by the plants,they are washed away by the rainwater into rivers,lakes and seas,which pollute both surface water and underground water.
Industry
Factories and industries often release poisonous chemicals into seas,rivers or lakes,which is quite bad for Mother Nature.An example of industrial sea pollution happened in Japan in the 1950s.A local factory had poured waste water with mercury(水银)into the Minamata Bay for 20 years.Tuna fish in the bay took in the mercury and people ate the tuna. Many children were born with birth deformities(畸形).As a result,people lost their,hearing and sight,and thousands of people died in the end.
