For more than a decade, Natural News has been warning the public about the dangers of the use of chemical pesticides and herbicides, and the genetic modification of plants to withstand the onslaught of such chemicals. In return, Natural News – like most members of the independent media – has been vilified, mocked and even censored by the mainstream … Continue reading As global insect population plunges toward total ecological collapse, the corporate-run media still censors the truth about GMOs and pesticides
Is “biosludge” responsible for causing more cancer?
Back when Bill Clinton was president in the 1990s, legislation was passed to allow for human sewage to be converted into “fertilizer,” which is now spread all over American food crops as “biosludge.” But as revealed in the new documentary film Biosludged – you can watch the trailer – biosludge isn’t safe, and could be contributing to increased … Continue reading Is “biosludge” responsible for causing more cancer?
Health Basics: The history and primary causes of Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease is tricky because most medical doctors in America will tell you that it’s 70 percent genetic, but that’s wrong. You don’t have to go to medical school for 8 to 12 years to understand that toxins we consume not only affect our heart and body, but our brain as well. And yet, medical doctors … Continue reading Health Basics: The history and primary causes of Alzheimer’s Disease
Scientists: Long history of fertilizer use on land is threatening our water quality today
Imagine you’re driving down a long, straight road through rural farmland. One either side of you are beautiful green farms. The produce being grown on these farms looks healthy and appears to be thriving. Now picture the land beneath those farms as massive sponges. Like all sponges, put enough liquid in and eventually the absorption … Continue reading Scientists: Long history of fertilizer use on land is threatening our water quality today
Irish researchers detail a potential solution for tackling plastic waste
Every day, the average American churns out a lot of plastic garbage that takes forever to decay. Over time, the nearly-indestructible waste piles up and contaminates the surroundings, causing serious harm to the environment and human health. This prompted Irish researchers to look for a way to manage the ever-growing mountains of plastic waste we … Continue reading Irish researchers detail a potential solution for tackling plastic waste
The government is LYING about the safety of “biosludge”
Unbeknownst to the vast majority of Americans, the federal government has quietly given the green light for companies to take treated sewage and spread it all over America’s food crops as “fertilizer.” It’s a form of “recycling” that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) claims is completely safe, but that a whistleblower has revealed is actually … Continue reading The government is LYING about the safety of “biosludge”
A cheaper alternative? Scientists looking at converting plastic waste into hydrogen fuel
The problem of plastic waste pollution shows no signs of letting up. Around eight million tons of plastic waste are making their way into our oceans every year, and the problem is only expected to get worse as plastic production will need to grow by three or four times by 2050 to meet demand. Although … Continue reading A cheaper alternative? Scientists looking at converting plastic waste into hydrogen fuel
Organic fertilizer can be used to increase crop yield in plants grown in rotation
A study published in the journal Biological Agriculture & Horticulture assessed soil nitrogen oxidation through field incubation, and analyzed the rate of nitrogen release by commercial fertilizers compared with farmyard manure compost. For the study, a three-year organic crop rotation was set up in a field with sandy loam, with a cover crop of rye and vetch for green manure. In the … Continue reading Organic fertilizer can be used to increase crop yield in plants grown in rotation
Researchers develop blend of bioplastics that can decompose under diverse conditions
Biodegradable plastics have been available for a while now. But an Irish-led effort has come up with new bioplastics that also retain the best characteristics of normal plastic products, an article in Science Daily stated. These bioplastics are just as malleable, resilient, and robust as their petroleum-derived equivalents. At the same time, they can be easily broken down … Continue reading Researchers develop blend of bioplastics that can decompose under diverse conditions
Landmark study describes the link between pesticide levels in expectant mothers and autism risk in their infants
Science has provided yet more clues as to why autism rates in children continue to skyrocket throughout the Western world. A groundbreaking new study recently published in the American Journal of Psychiatry found that pesticide exposure in pregnant women is directly correlated to increased autism risk in children, pointing to industrial agriculture as a major cause of brain damage … Continue reading Landmark study describes the link between pesticide levels in expectant mothers and autism risk in their infants
