Lawsuit accuses Synagro of poisoning farms with PFAS-contaminated BIOSOLIDS “fertilizer”
Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER), an advocacy group, has announced a lawsuit against a major U.S. producer of so-called “biosolids-based fertilizer” for contaminating the natural environment with toxic chemicals like PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). In what PEER says is the first “in what may be a tidal wave of product liability lawsuits,” the […]

Scientists find toxic “forever chemicals” in home fertilizers made from sewage sludge
Many home gardeners buy compost or fertilizers to improve the quality of their soil. Unfortunately, some home fertilizers made from biosolids – nutrient-rich, organic materials derived from sewage sludge – contain alarmingly high levels of “forever chemicals,” or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Those are the findings of a recent report by scientists with Ecology Center, a nonprofit environmental advocacy […]

SHOCKER: Most products labeled “Non-GMO” can still be grown with sewage sludge, antibiotics, growth hormones, hospital bio-waste, synthetic pesticides and Roundup
Millions of consumers around the world have been hoodwinked by the “Non-GMO” product label, and to this day, have no clue that the quality of the majority of those products is nothing even close to organic. The whole goal of eating healthy is to avoid foods that are contaminated, and that way you also get the […]

Microplastics have reached farmland; experts say recycled wastewater and garbage are to blame
Plastic waste is an ongoing environmental concern. Yet while people attempt to reduce plastic pollution by making more eco-friendly lifestyle choices, the problem persists. Microplastics, which are very small pieces of plastic similar in size to a grain of rice or are too small to be seen by the naked eye, pollute both sea and […]

Microplastics are invading our farm lands, and researchers say the problem is even bigger than they first believed
You’ve probably heard a lot about microplastics in the oceans in recent years, and while this remains a very serious problem, researchers say there could be an even bigger threat right here on land. Microplastics are tiny pieces of plastic that range from the size of a grain of rice all the way down to […]

Farmers are being lied to about the “amazing benefits” of toxic biosludge
Following the recent release of the new Biosludged film by Brighteon Films, many people are now wondering why it is that some farmers are willfully going along with this heavily-polluting sham by spreading the stuff on their farms. The answer is that many of them have been misled about the alleged “amazing benefits” of its use […]

Exposed: Toxic biosludge spread on food crops is contaminated with RADIOACTIVE medical waste
When the experts congregate to discuss the topic of biosolids safety, one major issue that’s rarely, if ever, brought to the table is the propensity for concentrated sewage sludge – which is what biosolids are, by the way – to become contaminated with radioactive isotopes. During an exclusive, behind-the-scenes interview with the Brighteon Films team, […]

BIOSLUDGE is a toilet-to-farm scheme that deposits toxic sewage sludge on food crops all across America
There’s a reason why the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has implemented a Clean Water Act and a Clean Air Act, but NO Clean Soil Act. A Clean Soil Act would fundamentally change how wastewater is processed and recycled. It would require the EPA come clean about the toxic composition of fertilizers being spread on North […]

Organic fertilizer blend effective at lowering cadmium levels in soil
The presence of cadmium (Cd) in the fertile soil of California is bad news for growers and consumers alike. When large amounts of the heavy metal are absorbed by leafy vegetables, the crop becomes dangerous to humans. Researchers therefore came up with an organic fertilizer that can reduce Cd levels in soils and vegetables, according to an […]
