Water is a transparent and
nearly colorless chemical substance that is the main constituent of Earth's streams, lakes, and oceans, and the fluids of most living organisms. Water pollution in Zambia is brought about by many activities such as industrial waste from mines, disposal of human waste, plastics and dead animals in river systems. Furthermore washing and bathing in water is another form of water pollution common in less developed areas like villages and shanty compounds. As we know Zambia?s economy is highly based on mining and industrial activities, for this reason a lot harmful chemicals like sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide are emitted into the atmosphere causing acid rain when they get into contact with rain drops. Thank You For Reading,Looking Forward To Your Comments. Chabala Chisenga Eco Generation Regional Ambassador To Zambia. |

Chabala, thank you for your report. This was short, but punchy! Nations with mining industry always suffer from water pollution. I guess Zambia is having a same issue. If you wish to write more about water pollution, I believe you could find some measures by Zambia government to take care of water pollution and write about it.

Hi Chabala! Thanks for sharing your article on water pollution in Zambia.
It is difficult to fight against water pollution especially when the whole country depends on mining and other industries contributing to the pollution.
However, it might be too late to regret when the country is develped and water source becomes nonrecoverable.
Thanks for sharing again!
