How Can We Mitigate the Impact of Toxicants on Aquatic Life?
Mitigating the impact of toxicants on aquatic life involves several strategies. Implementing stricter regulations on industrial discharges and agricultural runoff is crucial. Developing and promoting the use of less toxic alternatives for pesticides and fertilizers can reduce contamination. Restoration of natural habitats and wetlands can enhance the natural filtration of pollutants. Public awareness and education on the importance of protecting aquatic ecosystems also play a vital role.
