Reporting Water Pollution & Related Issues

This crisis undermines the very foundation of life, affecting everything from microscopic organisms to complex mammals. Contaminants from industrial discharges, agricultural runoff, and improper waste disposal infiltrate our water bodies, compromising their quality and safety.
