By: Adele, Charlotte

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

Over two thirds of Earth's surface is covered by water, less than a third is taken up by land. As Earth's population continues to grow, people are putting an ever increasing pressure on the planet's water resources. Our oceans, rivers, and other inland waters are being squeezed by human activities therefore reducing the quality of water. This book contains vital information on water pollution including its categories, causes, the effects, its measurement, and solutions to address the problem.
