Freshwater quality — key message 5

SOER 2010 Message (Deprecated) Published 28 Nov 2010
Removing pollution is expensive, uses energy and chemicals, and results in the generation of wastes. Controlling pollutants at source, however, decreases their discharge to freshwaters and reduces the need for treatment. There is considerable scope for greater implementation of source control measures across all sectors.
