Some of the steps which are helpful for the control of water pollution are being described as follows:
(i) Waste water treatment techniques can be applied before the polluted water enters a river, lake or pool.
(ii) Septic tanks should be used for each house.
(iii) Rivers, lakes etc. should not be used for bathing and washing purposes.
(iv) Too much use of pesticides which are not biodexampleradable should be avoided. These are highly toxic substances.
(v) Efforts should be made to increase the use of low grade or polluted water.
