Water pollution simply makes fishes sick, then eventually
they die. Humans are the biggest threat to the fishes, there are many ways we
can pollute the sea like using pesticides that run off into water. The
following are other factors that affect the sea creatures.
Nutrients - these are commonly used in farms that are leaked
from sewage feed algae in the ocean. The algae with increased amount of
nutrients, grow at a rapid rate and form what we called red tides. Red tides
releases toxins that kills fish. NUTRIENTS = FISHTECIDE.
Oil - these are from industrial and automotive
runoff and oil spills can coat the skin of the fish and kill them. Oil also
introduces toxins to the fishes that causes desease and birth abnormality and
death. It also affects the marine mammals by damaging its protective ability of
the skin to keep it warm. OIL = FiSHTECIDE.
Trash - espacially plastics that are thrown into the
sea are sometimes digested by the fished
mistaken it for food. It can cause blockage of the fish's digestion system and
kill the fish. Plastic items can get stuck around the neck of marine animals
causing them to slowly choke to death. TRASH = FISHTECIDE.
Noise Pollution
- noise comming from boats can
stress the sea animals, stress can cause marine life to become sick. Some
marine animal will not mate duea to stress of the noise pollution. NOISE POLLUTION =
FISHTECIDE.
Radioactive Waste
- chemicals form factories and
military waste can be absorb my the fishes that can cause abnormality.
RADIOACTIVE WASTE = FISHTECIDE.
