Question
which of the following is an example of nonpoint source water pollution?
○ dump truck of trash from a building
○ pipe of pollutants from a business
○ ocean of trash from an entire world
○ oil and chemicals from a warehouse
Non - point source pollution comes from diffuse sources like runoff over land. A dump truck of trash from a building, a pipe of pollutants from a business, and oil and chemicals from a warehouse are point - source (specific, identifiable sources). The "ocean of trash from an entire world" represents a non - point source as it is not from a single, identifiable source but rather a cumulative, diffuse input.
