Pollution Threatens Coastline Says Environmental Group

Washington based National Resources Defense Council warns coastlines face toxic chemical sewage and medical waste contamination. The group cites 5 trillion gallons of factory wastewater and 2.3 trillion gallons of sewage released yearly, plus runoff from rain or snow carrying poisons into the sea. They urge tighter controls, bans on raw sewage discharges, better treatment, land use rules, and a halt to ocean dumping of medical wastes and plastics.
