This picture shows how people have polluted the lake. Even though most people are aware of the dangers of water pollution, they still continue to pollute the water bodies. As evident, all the toxins and wastes people throw near this lake has polluted the water in turn leading to tragic end of animals in and around the lake. For example small fish and ducks that live in that lake choke on plastic or any other trash and die. The same water is also contaminated by chemicals released into the water by nearby factories. This water evaporates and forms acid rain, which can affect not only humans, but it can affect the fertility of soil, and damage monuments.

The second picture shows a dried up lake, where there is nothing but construction waste and litter. Both of these pictures show the extremes of water pollution. The second image shows a lifeless and damaged lake which looks more like a wasteland than a lake.
In both the pictures, there aren’t much trees or plants nearby due to construction. These lakes should be conserved and the nearby land should be turned into a nature reserve park. This way the environment stays protected and the society is not harmed.
