  1. 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.

  3. The Kilacold Bomb was a short-lived "cure" for the cold and other respiratory diseases that was sold during the 1920s, consisting of an ampoule of pure chlorine gas intended to be broken in a sealed room, where the ailing person would stay for an hour.

  4. Chlorine cycle (Biogeochemical cycle 🔄)

    The chlorine cycle is the biogeochemical cycling of chlorine through the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and lithosphere. Chlorine is most commonly found as inorganic chloride ions, or a number of chlorinated organic forms. Over 5,000 biologically produced chlorinated organics have been identified. The cycling of chlorine into the atmosphere and creation of...

  5. Addendum to an earlier post (a long while ago, actually), apparently, what causes chlorine smell can also be caused by sweat and other things, not just urine.

  6. You may be surprised to learn that the unmistakable smell of #chlorine that hits you when you come out of the changing room and into the #swimming pool actually isn't technically the smell of chlorine.

    "This smell is when chlorine is reacting to other materials, particularly #ammonia, in the #water, which comes from #urine and #sweat," Khan says. This ammonia reacts with chlorine and forms chloramine, which is what causes the smell. "So, the smell suggests that there are bodily fluids in the pool reacting with the chlorine," says Khan.

  8. Mixing bleach and vinegar creates potentially lethal #chlorine gas.
    If you notice a pungent smell after mixing household cleaners, you should immediately leave the area and try to breathe in fresh air.
    If you or somebody you know notice any symptoms of chlorine gas poisoning, it’s a good idea to immediately call 911 or the NCPC at 800-222-1222.

  9. As I sit here sipping a gin and tonic in my back yard, next to my pool, listening to the cicadas, I can't help but think "damn, I do love the sounds of #nature, and the smell of #chlorine."

    Not sure what that means, but it is what it is....

  11. I’ve had to use eye drops last night & all morning so far. My eyes were so red from the chlorine at the pool. My fault, I have goggles but rarely wear them. I’ve now looked them out & put them in the swim bag again. Goodness knows why I took them out in the first place.
    I’m also very aware that my legs have calves this morning 😂🤣. #LoveSwimming #Chlorine #Exercise
