https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/may/06/eu-trade-deal-could-force-uk-restrict-glyphosate-weedkiller-linked-to-cancer. That would be an excellent thing! The UK #farming lobby & the #chemicals #industry seem Hell-bent on retaining #glyphosate here, in spite of its known #carcinogenic effects & #environmental damage, so if this new agreement (see: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/uk-eu-sps-agreement-information-for-businesses) does away with the foul stuff, hoorah, @greenpeace!

This may not be the best place to ask but is it safe to burn treated softwood? Do the treatments become less toxic with time?
Background - about 15 years ago I was given an old shed that had reached the end of its life as a shed but the panels were in reasonable nick so I used it to build a log store. At the time I hoped to get 3-5 years out of it.
It's finally time to dismantle and dispose but the matchboard would make kindling if it's not toxic. -

🦊🐛 In the forests of #Madagascar, #lemurs have learned to use #millipedes as a specialized form of #medicine.
By gently biting the #insects, the #primates trigger the release of defensive #chemicals that act as a potent repellent against #malaria-carrying #mosquitoes. The lemurs rub the secretions into their fur and even ingest small amounts to treat internal parasites. The toxins cause a brief, trancelike state.

"When #refineries, #fuel depots, or storage facilities burn or rupture, #petroleum products, toxic residues, & #firefighting #chemicals can seep into #soil, drain into #rivers & #canals, & eventually contaminate #groundwater. The result is not just less #water, but dirtier & more dangerous water."

#LAFires Could Transform Former #Rocketdyne Site into #FEMATrailerPark
January 2025
"#Radiation and chemical vapors on 47-acre #CanogaPark site are too toxic for housing, but could be mitigated to safely house residents displaced by January 2025 fires in above-ground trailers.
- Gross site contamination and development encumbrances prohibit residential housing
- Hundreds of #FEMATrailers, mobile homes and even shipping containers could be placed on site safely and temporarily house thousands of #LosAngeles disaster victims [Or maybe a potential #DetentionCenter? Hmmmm...]
- Efforts to clean up polluted west Valley groundwater could emulate 2024 agreement to remediate fouled east Valley aquifer and provide billions of gallons of clean water"The former Rocketdyne Canoga Park facility in the western #SanFernandoValley is so contaminated that it is nearly impossible to build anything on it other than light industry even though a developer wanted to construct homes on the site.
"#Chemicals and #radiation severely contaminate the land and #groundwater in and around the site according to documentation obtained by EnviroReporter.com.
"According to astonishing information never before covered in the media, areas offsite and around #RocketdyneCanoga are hot with high amounts of gross alpha and uranium radiation."

Meanwhile, the local public #utility in Dalton, #Georgia responsible for ensuring safe #DrinkingWater coordinated with #carpet executives in private meetings that would effectively shield their companies from #oversight.
Year after year, the #chemicals traveled in #water discarded during manufacturing from mills across northwest Georgia, eventually reaching a #river system that provides drinking water to hundreds of thousands of people in Georgia & eastern #Alabama.

Ban Forever #Chemicals Now
To the European Commission, European Parliament & EU Heads of State
Petition We call on you to protect people’s health by strengthening, not weakening, Europe’s rules on toxic “forever chemicals”.
Right now, you are considering changes that risk rolling back essential protections against #PFAScontamination
Every delay means more toxic chemicals entering our water, our food, and our bodies - contamination that can last for generations
