According to the journal Enviornmental Sciences and Technology durin 1994 to 2004 there was a river monitoring in northern Germany. With the technology that we have today that data was used to measure how toxic the river were. The data showed that the rivers were super toxic and that they are still toxic today. The data was used to look for 331 toxics that should not be found in water, out of those 331 toxics 257 were found in the rivers. Also banned pesticides were found in the water. According to the journal, with the toxic water flora and fauna will suffer toxic impacts. They also found aout threw experiments that water flees could not sustain life in those waters well.
