What is pollution doing to our animals?

Water pollution: The pollution that is hurting marine animals is the big boats belching out huge barrels of oil. It is also big companies and cities that empty wastes into the oceans, lakes and rivers. It is also individual people that throw through rubbish aimlessly into the lakes and streams.

Air pollution: Most of the pollution is from big giant factories that continuously release pollution into the ecosystem. But it is not only factories that cause pollution it’s also the cars and trucks that we drive everyday! What this kind of pollution does to the animals is that when they breathe in they get all of that pollution in their bodies which is not healthy.
