I think that pollution is not ok for the environment because it hurts wildlife it destroys oceans with oil spills. That is why pollution is a really bad thing for the environment.

Marine Pollution

(A staggering amount of waste which has only existed for the past 60 years or so enters the oceans each year.) Laura Parker National Geographic Marine Debris is persistent. Another pollution in our oceans Marine debris injures and kills marine life. Solid garbage also makes its way into oceans plastic bags, balloons, glass, bottles, shoes and packing materials have been found blocking the breathing passages and stomach of a lot of marine life.numbers are unbelievable there is 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic debris in the ocean. (It's estimated that by the end of this century if we keep this pace with our current emissions practices the surface waters of our oceans could nearly 150 percent more acidic than they are now) Melissa Denchak.

This is a ocean in the U.S.A That is polluted

Oil Spills

Oil spills cause huge damage to the marine environment but in fact responsible for only around 12% of oil entering seas each year which is not legal. According to a study by US Nation down drains and rivers as waste and runoff from cities and industries. A wide variety of marine debris ranging from tiny microplastics to derelict fishing gear and abandoned vessels.

36% comes down drains and rivers as waste and runoff from cities and industries. A wide variety of marine debris ranging from tiny microplastics to derelict fishing gear and abandoned vessels.

This is a bad oil spill that they are cleaning up.

Pollution

Pollution is a global problem although urban areas are usually more polluted than the countryside. Pollution can spread to remote places where no people live. For example pesticides and other chemicals have been found in the Antarctic ice sheet. The Solutions are in the work if we work together there is hope reminging. (A little over half of waste 136 million tons was gathered in landfills) Live Science. rubber, leather and other textiles prior to landfills most Americans lived in sparsely populated rural farming communities

this is all pollution from people not taking care of the environment.

The number of landfills in the united states has steadily declined over the last 2 decades. Yet the average size of landfills has increased overall landfills capacity appears to be sufficient although it is limited in some areas.
