When water is polluted we don't only endanger ourselves human beings but also species in the waters eg fish, polluting water cause a lot of health problems which might even cause death, as to keep water safe we don't need to throw acidic substances like batteries etc in the water/seas/oceans, rubbish like plastics etc isn't also supposed to be thrown in the water but recycled. They are some water-borne diseases Some of these water-borne diseases are Typhoid, Cholera, Paratyphoid Fever, Dysentery, Jaundice, Amoebiasis and Malaria. Chemicals in the water also have negative effects on our health. Pesticides – can damage the nervous system and cause cancer because of the carbonates and organophosphates that they contain.
