US is giving weapons and engineering #socialMedia to encourage war in #Europe to not only attack #Russia and #China but because Europe has the best #townPlanning model to dominate in the 21st century, and USA are a bit jealous.
The #USA are culturally and linguistically unable to do #townhouses surrounded by #farmland in their #corporateMedia, so they would rather just export #war and pillage Europe.

Waiting to see the #ontarioauditorgeneral report on the #Greenbelt land grab today 👀. Two of the #developers went to court to avoid having to speak about how they bought greenbelt land right before Ford approved its #development: I wonder what really happened? #Environment #duffinsrougeagpreserve #farmland #foodsecurity #onpoli #ontario

A study suggests the lesser kestrel 🐦 could serve as a beacon for tracking avian diversity in intensive farming lands in Italy 🇮🇹.
Protecting this species could also benefit #farmland and ground-nesting birds.

Unfortunately, the public comment period for this project has passed. But this editorial has good information in it.
EDITORIAL: Keep #PFAS out of recycled sewage sludge
By Gazette Editorial Board | June 9, 2023
"PFAS chemicals have recently been at the heart of health and environmental issues in Hoosick Falls, Petersburgh and other areas around the state, leading to legal action, tougher regulations and cleanup efforts.
"The chemicals have been linked to a variety of health issues, including kidney and testicular cancer, thyroid disease, colitis and high blood pressure.
"In most cases, the environmental contamination comes from the discharge of the compounds into the soil from manufacturers of products that use PFAS chemicals, such as #nonStick cooking material, #firefighting foam and stain-resistant #carpet.
"But those same dangerous chemicals may also be finding their way in greater amounts into our #soil, #groundwater and even #FoodSupply through their use in #fertilizers made from #sewage #sludge.
"It’s imperative that [#NewYorkState] do all it can to reduce PFAS chemicals into the environment, not add to them.
"That’s why groups like the #SierraClub and the Northeast Organic Farming Association of New York are among those concerned about an element of the state Department of Environmental Conservation’s draft Solid Waste Management plan that could nearly triple the amount of recycled sewage sludge used in fertilizer and applied to #farmland and home #gardens.
"According to an article in the Altamont Enterprise, the DEC projects that 425,585 tons of sewage sludge is expected to be recycled this year. In 2018, the amount recycled was just over 300,000 tons. By 2050, the amount of recycled sludge is expected to rise to 782,527 tons, the newspaper reported.
"The potential for that sludge to contain PFAS chemicals means that there could be an increase in PFAS’s making their way into the environment.
"DEC officials said they recognize the potential for PFAS chemicals to re-enter the environment through sludge and they’re taking steps to address it, including proposing sampling requirements for so-called biosolids recycled in New York state, a comprehensive risk assessment to determine a limit for biosolids recycling, and efforts to identify potential commercial and industrial sources of PFAS chemicals in biosolids.
"The public really needs to keep an eye on this effort to ensure that the state is doing all it can to avoid contributing to more of these chemicals entering the environment."
