 GROUND AND WATER POLLUTION

According to the previous, we can deduce that the ground and water pollution it’s an
event that happens thanks to the anthropic actions and can generates serious
problems inside ecosystem to plants, animals and human health, because the
components necessary for this type of water are altered and don’t make possible the
indispensable resources to this the environment.
Are different types of contamination; the natural corresponds a natural cycle of water,
where they come into contact with minerals substances and dissolved organic or
suspended that are poured in the earth's crust, atmosphere and water. On the other
hand, the most injurious type of pollution that has a special relationship with the
action of the human being.
As we know, the water pollution can carry, rivers pollutions, sea pollution, even lake
and reservoirs, between everything that contains water, and that is why we can
include contaminated water in several human activities that would be affected by the
scarcity or misuse of it for human consumption, among which we find; drink, take
shower, swim in different places that contains natural water, breathe the vapors of
contaminated water, even consume meat from animals fed with contaminated water,
all our activities would be involved in the environmental problem.
Now, for the ground contamination, also it’s a problem that mainly affects the human,
because the alteration of the earth's surface with chemical substances that are
harmful to life to a different extent, putting in danger the ecosystems and our health.
In addition, this ground pollution can produce different problems of human health,
beginning with headache, threw up, fatigue, rash, eye irritation and potentially
resulting in more serious conditions, such as neuromuscular block, kidney and liver
damage and various forms of cancer.
Soil degradation worldwide is due to the destruction of forests, for their erosion, air
pollution, agriculture, livestock, farming, deforestation, salinization and urbanization.
Petroleum and mining exploitation are another source of physical-chemical pollution
in the middle and lower areas of our country and less intensely in the high areas.
Other activities carried out by the human become sources of contamination if don’t
makes the correct treatment, some examples of this problems are: the cooling
waters in the thermoelectric sector and the spills of oil and fuels in the river and
maritime transport.
