Yamuna river, India
Yamuna is a major tributary river of the Ganges with a total length of around 1,370 kilometers and about 57 million people depend on its waters. Untreated pesticides from the field and untreated sewage are the main sources of pollution as so far I haven’t found any records about river clean-up projects whatever.

Yangtze river, China and Asia
The Yangtze River is the largest and longest river in China, and the third-longest river in the world. Industrial waste and sewage, agricultural pollution and shipping discharges are little by little making the waters dead.

The King River, Australia
The King River is considered an Australia’s most polluted river. You can check this link to get detailed information on pollution and contamination. Beg my pardon, but I’m just tired of reading all those terrible facts.

The Mississippi river, USA
I’d really appreciate if someone could send us photos of different areas of Mississippi where we can see it’s actual state. There are many articles about Mississippi pollution and that’s the one I personally found very useful- the document about the quality of water in Mississippiriver.

There are other rivers that we can notice in reports for the dirtiest rivers, such as as Wawa river in Philippines, Anacostia river in USA, New River in Mexico and looks like this list is never ending. He’s the list of most polluted rives in the US and there are over 50 rivers! There are many polluted rivers in India, China and countries of Europe are not an exclusion.

Great post.
Nice article, but i would have love if there was order like which one is the worst, for me the worst is of Indonesia.
This is pretty sad to see. We should take better care of our mother earth. Thanks for bringing this to light with this post.
Sorry, The Mississippi River shouldn’t be included in this list. The pdf linked to is propaganda published by eviro-wackos to maintain their federal funding. It has a good concentration of mud and silt (same as in Mark Twain’s day) but the chemical pollution isn’t nearly what the hysterical leeches claim. I drink New Orleans tap water regularly, it is rated among the highest quality urban water supplies in the world. It’s just the way things are in the U.S. for SOME people. They have to play chicken little to make a living, and it discredits their entire profession.

Some of the rivers shown here are shockingly dirty! It’s a pity that too many people don’t value our planet and just won’t stop until it’s too late. Also I’d like to add Amur in Russia to the list, because it’s practically gurgling with chemicals (many of which come from China).
this is nasty so people need to clean this before somebody die because this water is so dirty
The Mississippi River is far from clean. I live in Memphis TN on river front property called Harbor Town. It is a very nice place however some nights it smells like a sewage treatment plant. There are always random things washing up along with garbage that has traveled only god knows where. There are signs posted everywhere stating “DO NOT EAT FISH FROM THESE WATERS. MERCURY LEVELS EXCEED SAFETY STANDARDS.”
Shame on the leadership or the lack there of .
how could they not care of the only great source of life there is
I am speechless
definitely dirty!
the world dirtiest river is gangga in india, you know…
