=What can WE do to solve these problems?=

Now that we understand water quality degradation and all its shortfalls - the economic and environmental problems associated with it - we would like to understand some things that we can do to stem this problem.

Many people are already working towards a clean water future. Boats are scooping up plastic trash. **Neutralization** of toxic chemicals in water is occuring. Chemicals are also being **diluted**. Lend a hand - make the world a better place!
 * 1) First and foremost - be a concerned and aware citizen! If we all were to understand the effects of water pollution then it would be non-existant. Unfortunately, that is not true. Luckily for you though, this website has helped inform you about water quality degradation.
 * 2) Next, do the best you can to reduce your own impact on the environment, not just for our water. You can also help out by not littering, using more environmentally friendly lighting, etc.
 * 3) Finally, make others aware. You can do this on a small scale, such as telling a friend, or on a very large scale, such as starting a non-profit dedicated to help preserve our planets water. Everything counts!
