‘Like the flip of a switch, it’s gone’: has the ecosystem of the UK’s largest lake collapsed?quote:Declan Coney, a former eel fisher, knew there was something wrong when the famed swarms of Lough Neagh flies failed to materialise. In past years, they would appear around the Northern Irish lake in thick plumes and “wisps” – sometimes prompting mistaken alarm of a fire incident, Lough Shore residents say.

The area is completely surrounded by farmland, so most likely all the runoff has ultra poisoned the lake for a long time.

man I like conceptually do not know what a big lake looks like. 90 miles of shoreline sounds absurd but that’s apparently pretty small compared to big lakes. I guess I don’t know what a pretty small lake looks like either. just teensy weeny ones

I guess I don’t know what a pretty small lake looks like either. just teensy weeny ones There's this weird thing about shore length where you can get a good estimate of how long it will take to get around or an accurate estimate of all the wiggles and those two numbers have almost nothing to do with one another

quote:Another example is the agency’s struggle to curb Roundup, a weed killer that has proved extremely dangerous to humans. Roundup contains glyphosate, which the World Health Organization has described as “probably carcinogenic.” In 2022, the CDC found that 80 percent of urine samples taken from U.S. adults and kids had traces of glyphosate in them. A follow-up by CDC and National Institutes of Health scientists found that people with glyphosate in their urine also have cancer biomarkers in their urine. I like how thought leaders have absolutely no context for how widely these chemicals are actually used. There is no "struggle" to ban glyphosate in the US and Canada, other than what takes place in the minds of urban libs (setting aside mommy blogs and poorly funded environmental groups). Industrial agriculture as we know it simply does not function without pesticides, full stop. We absolutely could do industrial-scale organic agriculture and feed everybody comfortably while preserving the soil forever: the tools and techniques exist already. But we don't, and we won't. Instead we allow things like Bayer's $66 billion acquisition of Monsanto, further cementing industry's power over life and death.

Ruggan posted:ok, so can we genetically modify these things to not produce toxins and then turn them into a food source??? what if we harvested it for fertilizer, to be used on farmland that ultimately drains nutrient-rich water into the lake, which caused the eutrophication that gave rise to the toxic algae bloom in the first place?

Years ago (c. 2009) I watched a lecture on Codex Alimentarius that would seem to be relevant today, talking about all the then-upcoming changes in pesticides/agriculture. It was given by a guy who worked for Schlumberger but of course I'm having trouble finding it now Does anyone have or read the book Seeds of Destruction?

quote:The National Football League players union, citing concerns about PFAS and player injuries, urged the NFL to replace turf at 14 stadiums with natural grass. And a March 2023 Inquirer investigation, Field of Dread, found 16 different types of PFAS in turf that was used at Veterans Stadium in the 1970s and 1980s. wtf
