2011] they are many causes of water pollution. These are as follow:
Industrial
waste: Cause huge water pollution with their
activities. These come mainly from sulphur, asbestos, lead, mercury, Nitrates,
phosphates, oil sewage and waste water, septic tank etc. cause a lot of water
pollution in the cities and rural area.

Oil
pollution: Routine shipping run offs and dumping of oil on
the ocean, surface happen every day. Oil spill makes up about 12% of the oil
that enter the ocean. Oil spill causes major problems and can be extremely
harmful to local marine wild life.

Underground
storage and Tube leakage: many liquid products
[petroleum product] are stored in metal and steel tubes underground. Over time
they rust and begin to leak if that happen they contaminate the soil and the
liquid in them end up in many nearby water bodies.

Atmospheric:
Atmospheric deposition is the pollution of water bodies caused by air
pollution. Each time the air is polluted with sulphur dioxide and Nitrogen
oxide they mixed with the water particles in the air and from a toxic substance.
This falls as acid rain to the ground and get washes into the water bodies also
get contaminate and this affects animals and water organism.

Ocean
and Marine Dumping: Again think of the rubbish we all
make each day paper, waste, food waste, plastic, rubber, metallic and aluminum
waste. In some country there are deposited into the sea. All these waste paper
takes time to decompose. When this end up in the sea they harm sea animal and
cause a lot of death. They also reduce the aesthetic beauty of the natural environment.
