What is the problem?What is pollution of the seas? Pollution of the seas is the throwing of human waste to the seas. 80% of pollution of the seas is caused by agriculture, 12% is caused by maritime transport and 8% is caused by oil spill. In South America 98% of wastewater ends on the seas. In countries around the Mediterranean sea throw 50 million tons of waste every year. Instead in China they throw 60 million tons of waste every day. All this affects the water and humans. Because by throwing waste they get together and make toxic. So the toxic get in the water and then in animals we eat. So when we eat animals with toxic we die. Like in Japon many people die by the toxics there were in the animals. The sea pollution affects our food chain and many people around the world die. So we need to do something about this or we will lost the sea that is our source of water for the future and our food.

What are the causes and effects?

Pollution of disease affect very much to the humans, a effect is that you are sick and the cause is how you get sick, you just don't get sick of food, you get sick of air pollution, water pollution and this is the cause why the food is contaminated and this is another cause why the human have disease and the effect of this is that there are some disease that are incurable.

The effect is not only that you are sick is that all what produce the this disease, these disease could get your defends low and then you can get another disease, like you get cancer to your lungs and then this disease gets your defenses low and you can get another disease like pneumonia and you can died. Another effect is that a disease can harm another member of your body, some examples: in diabetes, the cause is that your body don't produce enough insulin and the effect is that you can be blind, you can amputated a leg or a part of a body.

What is the solution?

In our world we have thousands of global issues, which affect our world in various ways. One of these global issues is the pollution of the seas; this is a huge problem worldwide since our world is completely made up of the seven seas. Our seas are beginning to grow dirtier and dirtier every time and it will continue increasing if we dont do something about it. In order to stop our salty water from dying of pollution we need to make changes such as the following. First we have to tell the population closest to the seas to be aware of not dumping or throwing trash to the water. Second we have to make sure that beaches stay clean, either by putting trash cans every certain distance or by telling the lifeguards present to make sure everyone keeps their trash or throws it in a garbage can. The third solution would be that no factory should be built near a beach or sea area, because the smog can infect the water and the plants surrounding it.

The fourth solution to this horrible damage to our world, is to make sure that fishing is at certain seasons so fish have time to reproduce, because some fish such as the cachimala eats waste or trash and tries to keep the ocean clean but they are been eaten and fished, so if we dont let them reproduce they will no longer help stop the seas pollution. These solutions stated above arent the only solutions to the worldwide problem of the pollution of the seas, other solutions state the following to save the seven seas. One of them is to make sure that fishermen not only let the various fish reproduce but also when they fish they normally let the dead fish floating or dispose of trash found on their ships or boats, so the solution would be to make sure or put a law against the littering of fishing ships. Another solution to this horrifying truth would to put movable restrooms in beaches because many uneducated people or familys think of the ocean a public restroom and leave dippers or use it as a bathroom. To sum things up are seas need to be taken care of and there are many was to do so.
