** Things That Cause Water Pollution: **
 * ** Dead creatures **
 * ** Plastic **
 * ** Chemicals **
 * ** Rotten food **

** Ways we Can Help: **


 * We could start a club to stop polluting. **
 * We could stop throwing food and liquids into the water. **
 * We could make more recycling bins to put around beaches and lakes to stop the increase of pollution. **
 * We could put more trashcans for the uneaten or half-eaten food to stop pollution. **

We should do these options so pollution doesn't kill the animals,infect our drinking water,and cause diseases. 1.78 deaths per second, 107 deaths per minute, 6,390 deaths per hour, 153,000 deaths per day, and 56.0 million deaths per year.That's a ﻿﻿BIG number.That's more than 9/11 which was between 6,000 to 8,000.
