The Guardian Datastore Pool. 2011: the year in data, journalism (and charts) | Datablog | News. What were the headline figures of 2011? Which numbers defined the highs and lows of a news-filled year? From Occupy to the tensions of the eurozone and the riots across England, the Datablog has covered it all.

Here is our look back at the year in data. 30 workers at Fuskushima power plant had been exposed to radiation over 100msv by May 30 after a Tsunami destroyed the Fukushima plant's safety systems. The recommended maximum limit in one year is 100 msv and a full-body CT scan will expose you to 10msv. The youth unemployment rate in Spain at 48% is the worst in Europe. The increase in the interest rate Italy has to pay on the bonds sold to cover its debt is 52%. This matters because as a country the higher the rate you have to sell your bonds at, the more you'll have to pay back. The amount owed by Europe's governments in October 2011 was €10,125,117,000,000. The average person accused of a riot-related offence travelled 2.2 miles from home to the riots in England during August 2011. University applications drop as tuition fees soar: get the data | News. The number of UK-born students applying to university for autumn 2012 has dropped by 7.6% according to official figures published today.

With students face soaring fees of up to £9,000 a year, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (Ucas) has reported a drop of more than 23,000 applying from within the UK compared with the same time last year. Jessica Shepherd writes today: The fall in the number of UK-born students applying may reflect that significant numbers have been deterred by the fee hike, but they are also due to a glut of applications in 2010 in anticipation of the fees rise.

Demographic factors could also be behind the slump in applications. The number of 18-year-olds in the UK is projected to decline over the rest of the decade by 11%. Total applications have also decreased with 321,908 students applying for 2012 compared to 344,064 for 2011 - a drop of 6.4% on the year. The number of applicants overall has fallen by 6.4%.

Former drugs minister Bob Ainsworth last week called for drugs to be legalised. He cited the harms of the drug trade, at home and internationally. Amid all austerity measures and cuts, I wondered if there couldn't be a better reason to legalise. Cash. If the government, taxed and controlled the supply of narcotics, how much money would it raise for the economy?
