THE GANGA ACTION PLAN PART IV

I HAD DISSUCUSSED THE TOPIC OF INDUSTRIES ON RELEASING UNTREATED WASTAGE INTO THE WATERS OF THE GANGA .

FOR EXAMPLE THE CITY OF KANPUR;

IT IS A SMALL CITY BY THE BANKS OF THE GANGA.IT HAS MORE THAN 5000 INDUSTRIES WHICH PRODUCE DIFFERENT ITEMS SUCH AS LEATHER PRODUCTS,CHEMICAL PAINTS,FANS MOTORS,BALL BEARINGS,ETC.

THESE INDUSTRIES RELEASE UNTREATED WASTAGE,LIKE CHEMICAL PAINTS OR HOT WATER IN THE RIVER.

HOT WATER IS CONSIDERED TO BE DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT ADVERSELY EFFECTS THE AQUATIC LIFE IN THE RIVER AS IT SUDDENLY CAUSES A RISE IN THE TEMPERATURE OF THE WATER.THIS DOES NOT ENABLE AQUATIC LIFE TO ADAPT QUICKLY AND MOST OF THE AQUATIC ANIMALS DIE DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO ADAPT QUICKLY.

CHEMICAL PAINTS OR REMAINS OF CHEMAICAL PAINTS TOO ARE DANGEROUS AS IT CHANGES THE COMPOSITION OF THE WATER.

ACTUALLY MOST INDUSTRIES CONTAMINATE THE ENVIRONMENT.
