Industrial pollution is also unchecked on Diphda V, which suffers from undrinkable water (purified water is sold at a premium by Free Trade Alliance concessionaires), toxic air, and a runaway greenhouse effect which, if unchecked, will result in the planet becoming uninhabitable within the next century.
