Answer to Question 1

It is simply not true. Too much fertilizer or pesticide can be more harmful than too little. Excessive chemicals can
directly damage desirable plants, insects, birds, and other animals. It can also wash into the water supply and cause
even more damage downstream and it can contaminate ground water



Answer to Question 2

Thermal pollution
