Sewage comes from domestic waste or municipal waste from sewers, which does not include any industrial waste but only untreated sewage from local residential or commercial areas.
Oil spills can occur when petroleum products or fuel is leaked from ships or the tankers carried by them. Pesticides are used in farms and plantations, while smoke is released from automobiles, machines, factories, etc.
