err posted:How sustainable are landfills and trash collection in the U.S.? We ship a lot of stuff off to Africa or Southeast Asia to get burned or dumped, especially textiles, plastics, and e-waste, it creates huge cancer hotspots. Cleaner plastics get shipped off to China and Hong Kong since they put bans on the dirtier stuff.

Some blame capitalism, some blame agriculture, well, here's the intersection 80000 hectares defoliated by agent orange dumping in the Pantanal region of Brazil, one of the most biodiverse areas in the world after the amazon  80k hectares is hard to visualize, it's the entire Paris metropolitan area chemically defoliated  The world's being annihilated so guys like this can keep selling that tasty agent orange contaminated beef for profit  He's not even in jail by the way https://twitter.com/Forests_Finance/status/1782437245116379217 yeah, that'll do it! call the deforestation manager!

Radical 90s Wizard posted:It really is loving wild how many different ways we are coming up with to destroy the world just in case some of them don't work out. Thought experiment: if climate change wasn't a thing, what would be the first other loving-the-earth activity to bring about global collapse? I'm thinking insect apocalypse undoing ecosystems and collapsing agriculture.

Microplastics posted:Thought experiment: if climate change wasn't a thing, what would be the first other loving-the-earth activity to bring about global collapse? That book I read recently - "The End of the World is Just the Beginning" - barely mentions climate change and focuses on demographic collapse. There's also the collapse of our political system (s) into fascism. Those are not directly loving the Earth like microplastics and pesticides, but all these things are inter-related and propel each other. That's the greater meta-crisis or omni-crisis or whatever you want to call it.

Microplastics posted:Thought experiment: if climate change wasn't a thing, what would be the first other loving-the-earth activity to bring about global collapse? Topsoil erosion. We'll be out of topsoil by 2050 and it takes one thousand years to replenish 3cm. We could direct-air capture or sulfate spray our way into a climate solution and still have a 90%+ population die-off before the end of the century cause we can't grow any loving food. For the food we do manage to grow in some rare areas or hydroponic greenhouses or whatever, we'll have a hard time trucking them around with the constant dustbowls, too.

Fragments of bird flu virus genome found in pasteurized milk, FDA says The test cannot tell if the virus is live. FDA still considers milk supply safe. https://arstechnica.com/uncategorized/2024/04/fda-finds-genetic-traces-of-bird-flu-virus-in-pasteurized-milk/ H5N1 made its startling jump to US dairy cows recently, with the first-ever documented cases in a Texas herd confirmed on March 25. It has spread widely since then with at least 32 herds in eight states now known to be infected. lol

Though the real crack ping is zooming out a bit. This specific guy just had to go with extreme cartoonish polluting, but it's obviously a generalized land clearing process.

Microplastics posted:Thought experiment: if climate change wasn't a thing, what would be the first other loving-the-earth activity to bring about global collapse? Plastic. If we hypothetically suppose a world where the general temperature of the earth is independent of the natural and human cycles of activity etc., then we'd poison ourselves to death with microplastics.

I wonder what percentage of existing plastic and pfas and tyres and so on has broken down to micro/nanoplastics so far. It must be less than 0.1% right? So much plastic yet to be released into its natural habitat (everywhere)
