Darnell Barker · Answer 1

The two types of pollution that are demonstrated in this real world example are:

Toxic pollution and Sediment pollution.

Explanation:

The new development that is being built is the main source that causes the pollution of stream through sediment process. Sediment is the process of carrying the waste through erosion and decomposition of plants and animals. Similarly the leaked oil antifreeze is highly toxic and hazardous to environment. The acid presence in the antifreeze onto the pavement is very harmful for the micro organisms as well.
