Place rubbish in bins.
Install more bins near water ways and parks and have them emptied regularly!
Have regular cleanups not just on clean up Australia day!

Put rubbish in the bin If you go to the beach then ensure that you take a bag with you and pick up other rubbish on the beach. If you go walking then take a bag with you and pick up the rubbish before the rubbish goes out to sea. Use public transport ,more, walk or cycle. Plant more trees and bushes to encourage wildlife back I planted a Butterfly Bush and this has seen an increase in butterflies.

What ever element cause the damage to the air and water in our environment we have to create another element (something else) to consume the element creates the pollution and make sure we manage to control both elements
Example
When there is too many rats in my house i try to keep as many cats as long as there is no rats. Not only that I have to make sure that I can control growth of the cats because it gonna make more problems

One method would be to check the amount of industrialisation going on. Factories must be asked to check their environmental friendliness. We could all help to some extent by doing personal gardening at our homes. It seems small but if we all do it then it can make a HUGE difference

I regularly take my kids to the beach and we take a bag to collect rubbish each time. I'm glad to say that over the 7 years we have been doing this, the amount of rubbish on the beach has decreased. Even when it's been months between visits.

The trucks that go past with the gas is unbelievable what it is doing to the air, example the trucks and cars and bus and factories that produce the smoke and gas should really find a different way to do so it is really bad for the environment and for the people breathing it in is not a healthy way of living.

Simple. You can do your bit by walking to places or using public transport to help the fresh air. In the way of water supplies, go down to a creek, river or stream near you and look at its condition. Observe it. And then think about that you can do to make it better. Clear pollution from it. Scoop out some of the muck sitting on top of it. If you do it even a few times, everything will be so much nicer :)

If we start teach our children how, why to love clean up probably at home then our children will grow up with a loving cleaning attitude, where ever they go.
This is what happening in Japan, we can not find anyone drop a cigarets bud on the street, they will find the nearest rubbish bin.
In Tokyo hardly find rubbish flying around, They are always picked up by children loving their city and the were brought up with loving clean attitude
