In the article above, it discusses how fertilizer is a source of pollution in water. It discussed how fertilizer can't pollute water if it is spread properly. If it isn't overused then when the fertilizer particles will attach to the soil, and it cannot be harmful to water. If there happens to be soil erosion though then the water can be pollution. Another cause is just runoff from the roads and crop dusting is also another cause of pollution. I think that in order for people to reduce the amount of contaminated water they have to underuse fertilizer so they don't take a chance of runoff and overuse of fertilizer. In the end though, people will always continue to think the more the fertilizer the better the lawn will look but they are actually wrong. Only so much fertilizer can soak into the ground.
