Pollution emitted in industrial areas represents a threat to human health and the surroundingnatural resources. We have a tendency to believe that the production processes are the only source ofenvironmental damage, and often forget about the possible long-term effects of harmful productionpractices. We may think that the closure of these huge industrial areas would improve the quality of theenvironment. Unfortunately, this ignores the threat of the remaining waste, which is abandoned andpoorly stored. It represents an even bigger danger because it stands neglected as it degrades and leaksinto the earth without any control at all. Changes in the water chemistry due to surface water contamination can affect all levels of anecosystem. It can affect the health of lower food chain organisms and, consequently, the availability offood up through the food chain. It can damage the health of wetlands and damage their ability tosupport healthy ecosystems, control flooding, and filter pollutants from storm water runoff. The healthof animals and humans are affected when they drink or bathe in contaminated water. In addition water-based organisms, like fish and shellfish, can pile up and concentrate contaminants in their bodies.When other animals or humans eat these organisms, they receive a much higher dose of contaminantthan they would have if they had been directly exposed to the original contamination. Contaminated groundwater can badly affect animals, plants and humans if it is removed fromthe ground by manmade or natural processes. Depending on the study of rocks of the area, groundwatermay rise to the surface through springs or seeps, flow sideways into nearby rivers, streams, or ponds,or sink deeper into the earth. In many parts of the world, groundwater is pumped out of the ground tobe used for drinking, bathing, other household uses, agriculture, and industry. Contaminants in the soil can harm plants when they take up the contamination through theirroots. Eating, breathing in, or touching contaminated soil, as well as eating plants or animals that havepiled up soil contaminants can badly affect the health of humans and animals. Air pollution can cause breathing-related problems and other bad health effects as contaminantsare absorbed from the lungs into other parts of the body. Certain air contaminants can also harmanimals and humans when they contact the skin. Plants rely on breathing for their growth and can alsobe affected by exposure to contaminants moved in the air.
