US is giving weapons and engineering to encourage war in to not only attack and but because Europe has the best model to dominate in the 21st century, and USA are a bit jealous.

The are culturally and linguistically unable to do surrounded by in their , so they would rather just export and pillage Europe.

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 and ground-nesting birds.

Unfortunately, the public comment period for this project has passed. But this editorial has good information in it.

EDITORIAL: Keep 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 cooking material, foam and stain-resistant .

"But those same dangerous chemicals may also be finding their way in greater amounts into our , and even through their use in made from .

"It’s imperative that [] do all it can to reduce PFAS chemicals into the environment, not add to them.

"That’s why groups like the 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 and home .

"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."
