What is pollution?

Pollution is any change to water that has a harmful effect on people or any living things. Humans cause most of the pollution. Everything humans make eventually turns into trash and the trash ends up in humongous landfills. The biggest landfill is in Maine. The waste in the landfills overtime leeches into oceans and effects many sources of wildlife. The pollutants coming from the landfills release many harmful chemicals such as chlorine, fluorine, bromine, and other pesticides. These things harm birds and it pollutes the water. Many giant factories burn leftover sludge from sewers and this causes chemicals and pollutants to get in the air, which eventually end up in the ocean. We should all work together to stop this nonsense!
