SOME visitors to the Zambezi River urinated on the river bank and left toilet paper behind, the Zambezi Society said in its latest bulletin.
“Over the past couple of years, the wilderness experience in Mana Pools National Park has undergone a noticeable deterioration, with the increasing abuse of this unique park by unsanctioned, uncontrolled human activities,” the local conservation group’s bulletin reads, a Sapa correspondent reported on Tuesday.
At most, human actions disrupt the smooth running of such a relationship between living or non-living organisms and the environment(ecosystem). However, this is evidence of water pollution and the passing of urine in water has negative effects like the risk of transmission of waterborne diseases like bilharzia . The random dumping of litter everywhere is dangerous to the environment and its biological components and living organisms.
