Nutrient runoff is a major subtopic in water pollution that’s often overlooked. It usually happens when rain washes excess fertilizers and animal waste from farms into nearby rivers and lakes. This influx of nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus, can lead to harmful algae blooms. While they might look pretty, these blooms can suck the oxygen out of the water, creating “dead zones” where fish and other aquatic life can’t survive. It’s a vicious cycle that affects everything from local fishing industries to recreational activities. To combat nutrient runoff, farmers can adopt better practices like using cover crops and reducing fertilizer use. Public awareness is key, too—by educating ourselves and others about the impacts of runoff, we can help protect our water quality. Every small action counts, and together, we can make a real difference for our waterways!
