The untreated water contains bacteria or parasites. People can become very sick when they drink the polluted water or use it to grow crops. People may end up with severe diseases or long-term health conditions. Air pollution is caused by slash-and-burn farming, fires, and airborne chemicals from vehicles and industries.
