It is surprising to see the effects that this treatment has. I never knew uranium pollution was an issue, atleast in water. What kind of treatment do they use though? I imagine it would be difficult to remove uranium from water, expecially is such small amounts.

I believe the y-axis is mislabeled because "before treatment" vs. time doesn't make any sense to me as to why there is a relationship. I guess what I want to know is whether the uranium moves to a different place or whether it is chemically broken down.

This removal of uranium is clearly essential to maintaining minimum pollution levels. As uranium is a radioactive element, could this possibly cause our fish to evolve? Do you think that radioactive mutation was a planned part of evolution? How much uranium is considered capable of causing human death? I would be delighted to hear your responses during the presentation.

Although I am happy to see that NOx emissions are going down, I am curious as to how long this data has been kept, because it seems that the amount stayed constant from 1980 to 1999

I wonder how quickly the actual occurrences of acid decrease after the causing a factor is decreased.

Yay for progress!
However, this data should be cross-referenced with the implementation of scrubbers. After all, factory processes may simply have become more efficient over the years, right?
Either way, it liiks like some invention around 1997 started the downward trend. That or else there is no data from before then.

I wonder if the cost increase is purely economic or if it is relative to the water quality. Is it possible that municipal water is being more and more thoroughly purified as the price increases each year?

I wonder how small a part of the increase is due to increase of population in this area. Which area is that by the way?
