What are health hazards and effects of pollution on terrestrial and aquatic life?

Answer 1

We must protect the water, land, and ambient air from any pollutants because pollution of the air, water, and soil due to uncontrolled industrial activities, without treatment of emission, effluent, or solid waste, creates an unhealthy climate / environment for terrestrial and aquatic life and causes many types of diseases.
