Great GCU title area, word count and page number.
Water Pollution I. Introduction (your don 't have to keep the outline format) Clean water is a necessity to have in order to support a healthy environment. Care must be taken to protect our water sources from chemical plants, businesses, cargo and cruise ships, and people so that humans, animals, and marine life can have clean water. II. Thesis Statement (this would be better if worked into the opening) We must take care of the planets oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers by stopping water pollution because about seventy-five percent of our planet is water. III. Water Pollution A. Effects of Water Pollution There are many effects from pollution that interfere with our planet 's water. The term or meaning of water pollution is foreign material or matter deposited in the water as a result of human negligence. Water pollution does damage to the environment in many ways. It can be as simple as making humans, animals, or plants sick or it can be much more severe and cause death. Depending on the nature of the pollutant it can stay in the infected area for a few days or linger around for months or years(an in-text citation would help here). It can upset an entire ecosystem and cause a chain reaction of events that could disrupt or totally cripple an ecosystem. Water pollution could make species of an area infertile and wipe out entire species over time because of their inability to successful produce offspring. Water pollution can also cause deformities of species to be born. It can also lay waste to land where it can no longer grow plants or trees as food and shelter to humans and animals. Several diseases are caused by polluted water. One that I would like to mention here because of the regular use of it 'sits (Its means it owns something. Its arm is blue. Its hat is neat. It owns a blue arm and it owns a hat. It 's means it is.
