Human impact on freshwater ecosystems

Voda je neophodna za život, kako nama tako i ostalim organizmima. Čovjek vrši prevelik pritisak na vode, njegov utjecaj se u zadnjih par godina posebno povećao. Porastom stanovništva slatkovodni ekološki sustavi pate jer osiguravaju vodu za različite ljudske djelatnosti. Razvojem industrije i poljoprivrede došlo je do stvaranja prevelikog pritiska na vode i ispuštanja štetnih tvari u njih. Oslobađanjem štetnih tvari u prirodu, a posebno u vodu onečistili smo i zagadili većinu vodenih ekoloških sustava i ugrozili živi svijet u njima.Water is essential for life, both for us and for other living organisms. Humans put too much pressure on freshwaters ecosystems, so his influence has increased in the last few years.
