Phosphorus Removal

[noctuanlreef]

I assume most have see the pulling of phosphorus out of the majority of every product that goes down the drains or comes into contact with ground water. They recently pulled it out of lawn fertilizers. So my question here is two things... one if it's being pulled out of the mass general use those of us who are on a small scale and have no choice but to dump waste down a drain, couldn't that be in SOME WAY traced to the area that it's being released? or is that extreme??

 

My next thing is they pulled it out of lawn fertilizers.... would they ever fight to pull it from general grow lines and make them replace it with a "Non polluting version" of phosphorus?? like a "genetically engineered phosphorus?"
