Sulphur oxides or SOx are air pollutants and cause lung disorders including bronchitis. Domestic sewage can pollute water sources causing many infectious diseases like amoebic dysentery. Minamata disease is a neurological syndrome caused by mercury poisoning from consuming shell fish and fish that had bioaccumulated methyl mercury. Methyl mercury is a water contaminant from industrial sources.
