coral reefs around the world. Sewage and oil pollution are a few of the pollutions that are poisoning and killing coral reefs. “The net effect of pollution is as bad or maybe worse than the effects of global warming,” said Iglesias, a co-author of the study in the journal Science on how climate change affects reefs (Pollution Killing World's Coral Reefs). Sewage pollution of coral reefs have been recognized as a major environmental problem for many years. Levels of sewage pollution are very high…

The phosphorus cycle is the movement of phosphorus in the ecosystem. The cycle starts from the rocks which contain a lot of phosphorus compounds. As these rocks experience weathering, they break down and gets mixed into the ground. Sometimes it gets washed away in water. With this, plants are able to absorb P from the ground. The animals eat these plants and absorb P. The phosphorus returns to the soil through the wastes we release, and when the dead decompose. These then goes back to the…
Failure of Our Water System: “Fouling Our Own Nests” Analysis Robert Glennon’s “Fouling Our Own Nests” addresses the gravity of our nation’s current situation regarding water. Glennon’s work thoroughly examines “water pollution [as] an acute national problem” and supports this statement with two main sub-claims: water pollution as an origin of immense risk to human health and water pollution as the compromising source of future water supply. Although the two sub-claims are addressed in distinct…
