There are many causes that lead to water pollution. One main cause of this issue
is waste water coming from many factories and then being directly pulled out into
water bodies, especially into rivers or seas without any treatment because this is
the most convenient way of disposing waste water. Industrial waste consists of
some kind of chemical substance such as sulphur, which is harmful for marine
life. Lead is known as the main reason for cancer disease. Cancer has become a
popular disease in several communes which are called "cancer villages". Another
cause is the awareness of citizens, people always use water for many purposes and
then they dump waste water or garbage directly into rivers, canals and ponds
and so on. In 2004, because of a bird flu outbreak in Viet Nam, people threw
poultry to water body that made water highly polluted.
