My city's air quality and drinking water are very poor. How do I come up with a mitigation plan? I need some advice on exactly what Mitigation means in terms of air and water pollution and how it can be cut back or prevented?
If you want to some thing about your city then you have consult some experience persons like consultants.I think the biggest source of water pollution is Industries. Industrial sector is consuming vast amount of water. Major problem with industrial water usage is a huge percentage out of this water consumed leads to production of wastewater which may or may not degrade quality of nearby resource. Industrial water treatment Consultant should be consult in this regard.

Angelo was studying drinking water pollution. Which of the following would be an example of a category of quantitative data?
a) Color.
b) Smell.
c) Taste.
d) Presence or absence of bacteria.
e) Temperature.
e) Temperature
a), b) & c) are qualitative data ( you cannot quantify them)
d) is also qualitative, because it will be true/false or yes/no type data.
try your local water works manager, or some egg-head college professor in the environmental department
The flue gas scrub water from fertilizer plants are added directly into municipal water supply systems under the guise of adding fluoride. The toxic chemical waste water would cost about $5,000.00 per truck load to dispose of safely, but in the US, it is sold to municipalities and diluted with our drinking water. Most European countries do not add "fluoride" and other flue contaminants to their drinking water.
The US has been through this propaganda war before with lead in gasoline and the dangers of asbestos and tobacco consumption.
Don't you think that Colgate should be worried about future litigation because of its funding of biased pro fluoride research?
The addition of fluoride to drinking water is considered a success story at the federal government. However, rates of HCC liver cancer tripled between 1975 and 2005. It increased from 1.6 to 4.9 cases per 100,000 persons. This cancer is rare, but it is easy to cause this cancer by adding fluoride to the water of laboratory rats. Neurological effects have been found in rats at low levels of only 5 parts per million. Drinking water is at about 1 part per million fluoride.
How can the government collude with industry to make its population drink industrial waste products instead of disposing of them safely?
My sister is dying from this rare cancer, and I believe it is due to her exposure to fluoride and mercury as a dental assistant over a 30 year career.
Why do we allow flue pollution in our drinking water?
Who said anything about power plants? Flue waste water from fertilizer plants ends up in our drinking water along with lead and fluoride. Aluminum manufacturing, and uranium enrichment also produce fluoride. You appear to be a bit narrow minded.

What's your source? Bigotry?
isn't it obvious it s working for pharmaceutical companies benefit..more sick and more depended to medicine is more merrier
In the future, will pollution be the greatest threat to our drinking water supply?
Nah - for the most we can use technology to clean water to potability standards. I think the greatest threat is simply supply and demand - will we have enough fresh water to go around?

Farm Pollutant into US Drinking Water - Pollution - European Water ...
More than 69 percent of the state's population was exposed to atrazine, raking Maryland second. The actual number of Marylanders exposed was also among the highest. Studies link atrazine to low birth weight, birth defects and menstrual problems, the Times says. Lab animals also seemed more likely to develop cancer.
Federal regulators insist the population isn't exposed to enough of the chemical to cause harm. Some scientists and health advocates disagree. Obama administration officials are likely to take another look.
The European Union, for example, has not studied the health risks but has banned atrazine as a precaution because it can easily contaminate groundwater. In the US, in the meantime, health advocates say pregnant women or others could avoid the chemical by drinking bottled water or using a filtration system.
Dow's Benelux site in Terneuzen is taking the local communitys treated wastewater, which is discharged directly into the river, and reusing it twice first in manufacturing plants and then again in cooling towers before releasing it into the atmosphere as vapor. This is the first time within the industry that municipal wastewater is being reused on such a large scale.
...Every Story About Chemicals in Drinking Water Is a Gift to the ...
Ran a front page story yesterday on atrazine in drinking water (part of its series on worsening water pollution) and the state of federal tap-water regulation of this super-common weed killer (not good). The chemical is worrisome because of its ubiquity, its links with birth defects and low birth weights, and because it may have effects at levels lower than those previously suspected. (U.C. Berkeley's Dr. Tyrone Hayes, who correlated low-level atrazine exposure to deformities like extra legs in frogs, was absent from the Times story. You can read about his research in this article I did for Discover.)
story reminds us that new chemicals appear faster than old ones are being tested, testing is often performed by manufacturers themselves, and mixture effects are difficult to sort out. The thing is, testing drinking water for every possible chemical of concern is extremely expensive, especially at lower and lower concentrations (parts per billion, parts per trillion). If a utility finds a chemical of concern, removing it can be enormously expensive (is this an argument for cleaning up only the small percentage of water we drink??). And after you remove a chemical like atrazine-using powdered carbon, for example-what do you do with it? The utility manager I interviewed in Kansas City said he dumped it back into the river from which it came.
