Persistent Organic Pollutants

This is a new phrase for me and think it will be worthwhile looking into. To see how many of these are freely available in South Africa. Will get there, learning names then looking them up is not my forte. But here is my list for future reference.

The 12 initial persistent organic pollutants (POPs), often called the “dirty dozen,” are a group of toxic, man-made chemicals targeted for global elimination under the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants. 

They are divided into three main categories:

Pesticides

• Aldrin: Used on soils to kill termites, corn rootworms, and grasshoppers.
• Chlordane: Used widely to control termites and agricultural pests.
• DDT: Used extensively to fight insect-borne diseases like malaria and as an agricultural insecticide.
• Dieldrin: Used primarily against termites and textile pests.
• Endrin: Sprayed as an insecticide on crop leaves.
• Heptachlor: Used to kill soil insects and termites.
• Hexachlorobenzene (HCB): Used as both a pesticide and an industrial chemical.
• Mirex: Used mainly to combat fire ants and termites.
• Toxaphene: Used as an insecticide on cotton, cereal grains, and livestock. 

Core Characteristics

• Persistence: They remain intact in the environment for years or decades because they resist chemical, biological, and photolytic breakdown.
• Bioaccumulation: They build up in the fatty tissues of living organisms, meaning their concentration increases as they move up the food chain in a process called biomagnification.
• Long-Range Transport: Wind and water currents carry them across global boundaries, contaminating remote regions like the Arctic and Antarctica where they were never used.
• Toxicity: Exposure to even low levels is linked to serious health threats, including cancer, birth defects, and immune or endocrine system disruption.

Those lists take 5 seconds to find………..

That the chemicals are in stuff passed by our safety boards is still been used is much harder to prove. One can see the incidents, even deaths of some children a while back… ALL gets blamed on the Informal Markets and… of course the foreigners….

I don’t believe that for a nano second. I am sure as I learn to research in cyber I will be able to prove this in time.

The “Quiet” Chemical Killers – Creosote

Creosote. From when I was young this stuff was the thing to put on gum poles that were set in the ground, for fence posts, telephone poles , any wood that would be exposed to the weather and the insects.

The smell was always horrible for me, but I saw our wooden gate in Wychwood that was treated with raw Linseed Oil, had to get done once a year or the wood would dry out in the Highveld sun. Many years later I put up a beautiful wood fence at my own house. Now I did not want to have to “paint” it every year with the Linseed Oil so decided to put Creosote on. I had a Border Colley, Quinn, that was like all them dogs, full of energy! While I treated the fence he was running around playing. I had put my container with Creosote on the fence, Quinn jumped and bounced off the fence, bringing the container down on him. It was on his chest mainly, thick hair, but go on his bare stomach and testicles. He loved water so washing him was no problem. The first probmlem was the exposed skin, it got very red and a little swollen. That was nothing. His testicles swelled up to twice the normal size, and he started damn dying! I had an old Scottish Vet that looked after my Border Collies, had 4, I rushed Quinn to see him. Now he was a fine fellow, loved animals… and Whiskey. His office was a converted house, he spent 3 nights , sleeping on the couch with Quinn on a mattress next to him. And a bottle of Scotch. Both survived. I then looked up Creosote, in a BOOK. Only remember one thing that stuck in my mind. It said that if you want to store eggs in a wooden shed, you cannot paint the shed with Creosote, the stored eggs will go vrot!!! (Rotten).

Jump to the here and now, my Big Five Wars, Marloth Park. I see HUNDREDs of treated pieces, of various lengths and sizes, in ALL the waterways leading to the Crocodile River IN the Kruger National Park. This alone is no good! Never mind all the poles planted here in use, and all the spilled Creosote.

Now if Creosote in the air of a shed makes an egg go rotten, what does it leach into our soil and eventually the ground water?

Modern life makes it pretty simple to look up things like this, no Dewey system any more. I already have a very good idea of what we shall find, let us have a look…..

In South Africa, the type of creosote sold and used mainly is Coal-Tar Creosote Type 2 and Type 3, manufactured in compliance with the South African National Standard (SANS 616).

First thing to check would be what this Government is using, as the articles written to date about the poisons in both pesticides and herbicides show that South Africa and Keyna use OPENLY, chemical substances that are banned in most of the world, never mind the illegal shit… that seems to have killed those 20 Elephant!!!!

SANS 616 Type 3 Creosote: This is the primary grade manufactured by suppliers like ICS Hydrocarbons. It is highly concentrated and used extensively for the high-temperature vacuum pressure impregnation of timber poles.

 SANS 616 Type 2 Creosote: Another major standard coal-tar based industrial wood preservative.

 Type C Creosote (Carbolineum): This is a thinner, modified creosote oil blend formulated specifically for manual brush-on applications. It is widely distributed to consumers at popular retail hardware outlets like Builders, Cashbuild, and Agrimark via brands such as Powafix.

The term “safe creosote” is highly misleading. In the wood preservation industry, “safe” s means that when it is applied under strict factory conditions, the chemicals become locked into the wood cells.

Coal-tar creosote even when manufactured to strict SANS 616 standards is highly toxic and heavily restricted globally due to severe environmental and health risks

The Environmental Damage

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs): Creosote is packed with Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) like benzo(a)pyrene. These compounds are persistent, meaning they do not break down easily and remain in the ecosystem for decades.

Soil Contamination: Creosote-treated poles notoriously “bleed” or leach oily residue into the surrounding soil over time. This kills off beneficial soil microbes and can be absorbed by nearby plant roots.

Aquatic Toxicity: It is incredibly dangerous to aquatic life. If creosote leaches into groundwater or is used for structures near rivers, dams, or coastlines, it bioaccumulates in fish and invertebrates, causing mutations and death.

Looked to see what lies the marketing people come up with, obviously they going to have to lie in order to continue to sell to the New Wave “Organic Everything, Save the Planet types. They came up with this.

Creosote vs. “Creocote” (The Retail Alternative)

If you buy “creosote” at a local hardware store like Builders or Agrimark for a DIY project, you are often actually buying Creocote or a modified Carbolineum.

What it is: These are consumer-grade, thinned-down bitumen or oil-based wood derivatives designed to mimic the smell and look of real creosote.

Is it safe? While it contains significantly fewer toxic PAHs than industrial coal-tar creosote, it is still an oil-based hydrocarbon. If it washes into your garden soil or storm drains, it acts exactly like an oil spill, coating organisms and contaminating water sources.

How can anyone that is WATCHING this planet die and faster all the time because of loss of species, find this acceptable. Just ban the shit in Nature Reserve for a start…… ja ja and Pigs will soon fly…..

The “Quiet” Chemical Killers – Chlorine

Started with the Doom Fogger , just one of the 100s of chemicals used extensively in the Game Lodges.

To write on every type of Doom like spray to prove it should not be allowed in ANY Reserves would be a mission on its own there are so many. Later I will just attack , ja attack, we not playing Painball here, every single shop in the Parks that sell any poisons.  The “Quiet” ones will have to point out. Although should NOT have to point it out to ANY Lodge owner. The ALL say they support Nature Conservation, claim huge knowledge of the subject for the most part….

Every 5 Star Lodge has at least one , crystal clear pool, and every one I have seen, the runoff just goes into the ground. This is what the Greenpeace site told me.

Pool chlorine runoff damages the environment by altering soil chemistry, killing local vegetation, and introducing toxic chemical residue into natural water sources. In Bushveld and game-lodge settings, this contaminated backwash or overflow endangers localized wildlife, amphibians, and sensitive aquatic ecosystems.

Climate Change? Have a theory just recently about this. We all know it is a money making thing, but too many people believe the Trust the Science “facts”, still!! After looking at poisons for one month only, the Climate Change is Mickey Mouse, even if all we read is true.  Recently the Bees got a bit of attention, they die , we die. This is biologically sound reasoning. BUT. Few things, first it is NOT only if the Bees go, we are at a point that the loss of even one tiny species of insect more and we take another big step towards …well, Armageddon. Then, I have just checked on all the insecticides/pesticides. I was sure they ALL kill bees, then I researched and found out this is 100% true. We have not even looked at herbicides yet!! That is another big issue I shall get to, as Agri Chems are just as bad. Time…. I will get there.

The reason that this chemical became the do all and end all of a clean pool is not a surprise……

The Post-WWII Backyard Boom & Mass Production

Chlorine production scaled up massively during World War I and II for industrial and chemical warfare purposes. When the war ended, chemical manufacturers had vast amounts of infrastructure to repurpose. [1]

A lot of things we EAT have a similar history!!!

I will make a quick post on that, but as you know, my concern for the general unwashed masses is not…. that great. It will be a just facts one.

Big Five Wars is my main mission for now and they also get updated regularly.

Just like with #PFAS-laden #FirefightingFoam, less #Toxic alternatives are out there, but expense is often cited as a roadblock. TBH, things that benefit the environment and society shouldn't cost more than the toxic originals -- and toxic chemicals should be replaced! Period! Make #BigChemical pay!

A #PinkPowder is being used to fight #CaliforniaFires. It's getting everywhere

by Nadine Yousif, January 13, 2025

"Its use has been controversial in the past over its potential effects on the #environment.

"A lawsuit filed in 2022 by the #ForestServiceEmployees for #EnvironmentalEthics, an organisation made up of current and former employees of the #USForestService, accused the federal agency of violating the country's clean water laws by dumping #chemical #FireRetardant from planes onto forests.

"It argued that the chemical kills fish and is not effective.

"The following year, a US District judge agreed with the employees, but in her ruling allowed the Forest Service to continue using the retardant as it seeks a permit to do so from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

"The case drew the attention of communities devastated by #wildfires in the past, including the town of #ParadiseCalifornia, which was destroyed by fire in 2018.

"Its then-mayor, Greg Bolin, hailed the judge's ruling, saying it ensures communities 'have a fighting chance' in the face of fires.

"The Forest Service told NPR that this year, it phased out the use of one type of #PhosChek formula - #PhosChekLC95 - in favour of another - #MVPFx - saying that the latter is less toxic to #wildlife.

"The Forest Service also has a mandatory ban in place on dropping fire retardant in sensitive environmental areas, like waterways and habitats of endangered species. There are exceptions to the ban, however, in cases 'when human life or public safety are threatened.'"
