One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage of clean
water.Having clean drinking water is a basic human right. However, acid rain, industrial
pollution and garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable. Lakes, reservoirs and
even entire seas have become vast pools of poison. Lake Baikal in Russia is one of the
Page 2/8
largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants, including 1, 300
rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. Yet, they are being destroyed by the
massive volumes of industrial effluent which pour into the lake every day. Even though laws
have been made, the government do not have the power to enforce them. Most industries

surface, but it is the dumping ground for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost 16 countries
