Very interesting, thanks. I'm somewhat intrigued by the photo of people releasing 400,000 plastic balls into a reservoir (ergo man-made) to prevent the sunlight from triggering a carcinogenic chemical reaction with the chlorine and bromide in the water. I'm not a chemist or a water-scientist in any way, but this sounds like kludge upon kludge to me, with the plastic likely to lead to further environmental problems somewhere down the line. Surely the solution (no pun intended) is to remove, or not to add, chlorine or bromide to the reservoir?
