Sahara fallout or spreading?
Sahara fallout or spreading?Gendarme profession - May 02, 2024
For some time now we have been playing the music of sand fallout from the Sahara. It's true that in the south in particular we sometimes have them, and always have.
Mirnes Ajanović, Bosnian lawyer and president of the BOSS political party, says that after the arrival of harmful Saharan dust in Bosnia and Herzegovina. But wouldn't this natural phenomenon be welcome to hide the very artificial fallout from spraying and drown out the fish?
Mirnes Ajanović, Bosnian lawyer and president of the political party BOSS, says that after the arrival of harmful Saharan dust in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a comparative analysis of sand from the Sahara Desert and fallen sand was carried out in order to determine if the dust linked to precipitation was real Saharan sand.
It was imperative to know the chemical composition of this dust and whether it contained toxic elements.
Many harmful elements and substances were found, such as arsenic, iron, manganese, copper, aluminum, etc., and very significant differences were noted between the Saharan sand and the sample from the precipitation that has very high levels of harmful substances, such as aluminum, which exceeds the concentration of Saharan sand by more than 700 times.

Pollution and junk food: cancers are exploding among young people
Pollution and junk food: cancers are exploding among young peopleReporterre - 17 Sep 2023
In thirty years, cancers among young people have increased by 80%. The main culprits: environmental pollutants and poor diet, analyzes Dr Jean-David Zeitoun.
The figures are alarming: in 30 years, the incidence of cancer in those under 50 has jumped by 79%, the number of associated deaths by 28%, and industrialized countries seem particularly affected, reveals a large study published in the BMJ Oncology on September 5.
Using data from national cancer registries, researchers analyzed the evolution of the incidence and deaths of 29 cancers in more than 200 countries, between 1990 and 2019. The results are clear: in 2019, 3,26 million cancers have been declared in people under 50, compared to 1,82 million in 1990.
The most common cancer at this age is breast cancer. But it is nasopharyngeal and prostate cancers which present the most worrying developments. And this trend is not expected to be reversed: the incidence of early cancers is expected to increase by 31% by 2030. Deaths by 21%.
The precise causes are difficult to identify: in addition to dietary risk factors (such as a diet rich in red meat), alcohol consumption and smoking, the authors put forward other avenues: antibiotics, the intestinal microbiota or even the outdoor air pollution. A point of view shared by Jean-David Zeitoun, doctor of medicine and clinical epidemiology, and author of The suicide of the species: how human activities produce more and more diseases (ed. Denoël, February 2023).

Microwaves can lead to brain damage and Alzheimer's disease
Microwaves can lead to brain damage and Alzheimer's diseaseThe Defender – March 17, 2023
Research into 5G radiofrequency (RF) radiation shows it can cause brain damage and possibly lead to dementia and Alzheimer's disease, according to nine independent experts in the field of RF radiation who published a new peer-reviewed article.
Research into radiofrequency (RF) radiation from 5G shows it can cause brain damage and possibly lead to dementia and Alzheimer's disease, according to nine independent experts in the field of RF radiation.
In a peer-reviewed article published last week in the Annals of Clinical and Medical journal
Experts have called on authorities to heed the advice of the radio frequency scientific community by establishing a “stricter regulatory framework” on radio frequency radiation and halting the rollout of 5G technologies – including smart meters and 5G cell towers – until a team of “qualified, industry-independent scientists” looked into the risks of the technology.
"The situation is absurd," said Mona Nilsson, chief executive of the Swedish Radiation Protection Foundation and lead author of the paper.
Although the first two studies published on the effects of 5G on humans and animals found serious adverse health effects, government authorities and telecommunications companies continue to install 5G cell towers and meters. smart on and around homes, Ms Nilsson told Defender.
Leading radiation cancer risk scientist and co-author of the paper, Dr Lennart Hardell, told The Defender: “I think it's time to have an ethical discussion. »
“What kind of society should we have? asked Mr. Hardell, an oncologist and epidemiologist at the Foundation for Environmental and Cancer Research, author of more than a hundred papers on non-ionizing radiation.
“Can the government expose people to dangerous pollution in their own homes without them being able to escape? he asked.
From an ethical point of view, this is a very problematic societal situation, Mr. Hardell said.

Danger. Consolidation of the electric car market is coming!
Danger. Consolidation of the electric car market is coming!Insolentiae – Jan 18, 2023
Tesla has just launched a price offensive with price reductions of up to 8.500 euros on the Model 3 in France.
Why such discounts?
Because it is a 17% drop in selling prices that we are talking about for the flagship vehicles of the Tesla brand.
So what's going on?
We spoke with David Jacquot about my analysis of the situation which is not insignificant in my opinion.
What Elon Musk has just done by embarking on the price war is to launch… the consolidation of the electric vehicle market and this will be hard on many manufacturers.

Light pollution: we are killing the night
Light pollution: we are killing the nightMr Globalization - Oct 31, 2022
There are pollutions that, finally, everyone is talking about. But there is one of which we speak little. Beneath its innocuous, usual airs, it nevertheless turns out to be deadly: it is about light pollution.
Spotlight on this unsuspected scourge that is about to steal the night from us, as from the rest of the living.
As winter is on its way - at least on the calendar much more than in temperatures (but that's another subject) - the nights once again promise to get longer, leaving only a few hours of daylight left. to give us its rays. It is the beginning of late dawns and premature dusks. As at the end of each year, our daily life is immersed entirely in darkness.
Finally, is it so? Can we still really speak of darkness? With the approach of the change of season, whose solstice will take place this year on December 21 at 22:47 p.m., Johan Eklöf publishes, with Tana Osons la nuit, Manifesto against light pollution; a highly anticipated book, distributed in no less than 10 countries.

Landfills: a lucrative and highly polluting market
Reporterre - 22 Sep 2022
What to do with waste? They largely end up buried (and therefore not recovered) in landfills. These overflow, catch fire, pollute, smell bad... In short, they are very poorly managed.
[INVESTIGATION 1/4]
December 2021, Saint-Chamas, on the edge of the Etang de Berre, north of Marseille. A gigantic metal hangar vomited molten waste in a terrible smell. Toxic fumes saturated the surrounding air. The levels of fine particles measured were "equivalent to those of Beijing", says Dominique Robin, general manager of AtmoSud, the air quality control body in the region. For nearly a month, the fire ravaged this warehouse filled to the roof with ordinary industrial waste, DIB in administrative jargon: cardboard packaging, plastic, scrap metal which companies are trying to get rid of, in return for finance. Recyclage Concept 13, the company that owns the hangar, held an authorization to store 1 cubic meters. On the spot, the firefighters discovered thirty times more…

Humans generate an oxidation field that alters the chemistry of the air around them
Humans generate an oxidation field that alters the chemistry of the air around themEel under the Rock - 07 Sep 2022
The air around us contains all kinds of pollutants. Outdoors, they can be washed away by rain and oxidation, which occurs when the sun's ultraviolet rays interact with ozone and water vapour. So what's going on inside?
As a new study shows, some oxidation happens inside too: the chemical scavenging that happens through hydroxyl (OH) radicals – short-lived reactive species whose role is to oxidize other molecules – is due to a combination of ozone from outside and the oxidative fields we create around us.
Scientists have found that, in some cases, levels of OH radicals indoors are comparable to daytime levels outdoors. In other words, we are chemical reaction machines that walk and breathe, which impacts indoor air quality and human health.

Study: many microplastics found in human lungs
Mr Globalization - June 14, 2022
While the ravages of plastic pollution on our ecosystems are now indisputable, more and more studies are reporting the presence of microplastics in human tissues and organs.
A recent study published in the journal Science of the Total Environment reveals for the first time the presence of microplastics in the lung tissue of “living” people. This data, analyzed by researchers at the University of Hull, was obtained from thirteen patients who underwent lung reduction surgery or treatment for lung cancer at Castle Hill Hospital in East Yorkshire, England.

Confined in the event of pollution: an idea in the air...
Insolentiae - Oct 31, 2021
Now everyone has understood where the state is coming from. This temporary which will obviously last and the health pass will be established over time since it will be extended until July 2022 and then for eternity. Always in this logic of reducing your freedoms, they stop at nothing. You pollute too much. Your existence is a threat to the planet.
"It's excessive but it would be the ideal solution": should the population be confined on days when pollution peaks?
