The water table is falling all the time due to overextraction from ground aquifers, and rivers and other water bodies are increasingly getting polluted, encroached, built upon, and commonly used as defecation grounds or simply outlets for sewage. Even the groundwater quality in many parts of the country has become suspicious. Agricultural, urban and industrial wastes pose a never-ending threat to groundwater.

The two main sources of pollutants in urban areas are transportation (predominantly automobiles) and fuel combustion in stationary sources, including residential, commercial, and industrial heating and cooling and coal-burning power plants. Motor vehicles produce high levels of carbon monoxides (CO) and a major source of hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). Whereas, fuel combustion in stationary sources is the dominant source of sulfur dioxide (SO2).
