Compare nonpoint source pollution to point source pollution.

Answer:

Point source pollution and nonpoint source pollution are both potentially harmful to the environment. The main difference between point source pollution and nonpoint source pollution is that point source pollution is easier to track to its source. The source of pollution is easily identifiable in point source pollution, but not in nonpoint source pollution. For this reason, point source pollution is easier to regulate and therefore easier to control. This makes nonpoint source pollution potentially more harmful to the environment.
