With the growth of organized societies and the advent of hydraulic structures, aqueducts, and early drainage systems, anthropogenic contamination began to broadly impact water systems. The true turning point came with the Industrial Revolution. Fossil fuel combustion and large-scale manufacture as well as intensive chemical production rapidly expanded; never before had such volumes of emissions been released into the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere.
Pollution evolved from being a localized environmental burden to attaining dimensions of a crisis at a global scale in the modern era. Now a days the anthropogenic pollution is now even seen in rural areas. And the pristine surrounding because of the long-range transport. Like for example the microplastic found in the polar snow and deep marines shows the effect of human generated contaminations. Thus, what we initially thought as a accidental by product has now become a widespread environmental emergency that has become a serous risk to ecological system, biodiversity and public healt all over the world.
