A large percentage of material that is dumped into waters not only destroys habitats for animals but for humans as well. Below is a list of some impacts of land pollution :

• There are some habitats, where aquatic animals feed and live, so there is a risk of destruction of habitat of aquatic animals.
• Reduced oxygen levels from decomposition of organic material dumped from drains.
• Reduced light penetration in the water column, from sediments and excessive algal growth, leading to oxygen depleted water. *Massively changed flow regimes, large fast flows can scour existing habitat and wash species downstream.
• Increased human health risks, from syringes, broken glass and cans washing onto creek banks and beaches.
• Reduced aesthetic appeal of areas from litter strewn on banks and beaches, thus reducing recreation and tourist appeal.
• Acid rain damages trees and other plants.
