How are the aquatic organisms, wildlife and the human population impacted by trash pollution?
Allushta [10]

Trash pollution like plastic can impact aquatic organisms, they can swallow the plastic which can kill them if not treated right away, other trash pollution like oils can make the aquatic organisms sick. Some pollutants can also affect the mother's milk when it comes time to feed their young, Lots of pollutions can make the animals sick very sick and they can't fight the virus so they ended up dying putting their species at risk of extinction.

Air pollutants can affect the birds, they are breathing in toxic airs from factories and that can kill them too or make them sick.

Pollutions are very bad for aquatic life and wildlife, we have to make sure we keep this planet clean or else we will die out too like the animals

hope this helped :)
