'Thinning' native forest and wildlife: 'Logging by another name'

"Scrutiny over WA government's decision to 'eco-thin' landmark South West forests."

"These forests, globally recognised biodiversity hotspots, were clear-felled by loggers for almost 200 years, until native logging was banned entirely in 2024."

"A South West landowner says contractors are ripping up trees without thought, and an independent scientist argues there is no scientific basis for the practice...It does not seem like much has changed from the preceding years of native logging.They don't care about the environment; [the contractors] are just ripping up trees for money."

"Almost 146,000 hectares of state forests and timber reserves have been earmarked as potentially suitable for ecological thinning."

A globally acknowledged expert in conservation biology and landscape ecology, Professor Lindenmayer said there was limited scientific evidence to support ecological thinning. The reality is that forests have been in Australia for about 180 million years and that means that people haven't been messing with them for 179,930 years, and they've survived very well … without those kinds of interventions." >>

Malaysian farmers, consumer & environmental groups call for rejection of #GMO rice trial. 61 organisations object to proposed GMO field trial. A key concern is contamination of conventional & wild rice if open-field trial proceeds. Also concerned the #glyphosate-tolerant MR219 variety would encourage greater use of the herbicide, leading to residues entering harvested rice and wider food supply. Plus concerned about impact on soil microorganisms & paddy-field biodiversity https://www.businesstoday.com.my/2026/08/11/61-groups-object-to-proposed-trial-of-genetically-modified-rice-in-perak/

## 250,000 x SAFE LEVELS IN USA.

## 125,000 x SAFE LEVELS IN EUROPE

## When it comes to herbicide use/abuse, at this (admittedly very late) stage we can all probably admit so-called gluten intolerance has very little to do with actual #gluten, cylliac disease etc, and more to do with #herbicides and #glyphosate, #24d #dicamber etc

## ie. its NOT THE GLUTEN - its the GLYPHOSATE <https://www.corbettreport.com/mp3/2026-07-08_Michael_Antoniou.mp3>

## Protect ur friends, family and urself.... this interview with an emeritus professor in the field, Michael Antoniou, covers a lot of ground, including how to avoid. Unfortunately, the connection to #canola (rapeseed) is missing, but almost EVERYTHING else is talked about. He explains #greenBurndown (pre-harvest desiccation) in detail and and other illicit practices.

Boost if interested in #food and #health, and getting these substances finally removed from farms (theyve been banned in #russia for over a decade now). Joy and love to you.

Is pesticide spray on food leading to movement disorders?
Precautionary principle - ban paraquat

"Paraquat and the related herbicide diquat are fast-acting weedkillers that farming groups say are essential for controlling resistant weeds."

"Multiple epidemiological studies from different groups of scientists have shown that people exposed to paraquat have around a three times greater risk [of developing Parkinson's disease]."

'The chemicals have been under review by the APVMA since 1997 and they are banned in the EU, the UK and China due to their toxicity.'

"There are now multiple epidemiological studies or real-world exposure studies that have suggested that paraquat increases the risk of Parkinson's disease by around threefold...Like Australia, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) continues to allow restricted use of the pesticide despite ongoing health concerns." >>

Un débat, un combat, à porter aussi dans les autres "ex"-colonies, les "pays d'outremer" où non seulement il y a toujours une main-mise de la bourgeoisie occidentale mais aussi des dégâts socio-économiques impactant durablement la santé, l'environnement, etc. : #radioactivite artificielle, #chlordecone, #malathion, etc. plus, évidemment, les #plastique, #PFAS et autres #glyphosate toujours balancés partout sans contrôle, ce à quoi il serait partial de passer sous silence le rôle de dépotoir à marchés foirés mais dont les stocks de substances malsaines sont quand même écoulées chez "les sauvages", bon ou mauvais (...)

Forever Pesticides? No thanks

Under the excuse of competition & #food security, the #EU commission is siding with #chemical industry which could mean more #pesticides on our fields

PFAS, #glyphosate, #acetamiprid … all the chemicals scientists have been warning us about for years

The #toxicity, increased chance of #death & #disease are just some of the consequences of the use of these chemicals

Hey, whatever it takes to #WakePeopleUp!

#MAHA moms threaten to turn this car around as #RFKJr flips on pesticide

MAHA members call movement a “sham” after Kennedy supports #glyphosate order.

Beth Mole – Feb 20, 2026

"Members of the Make America Health Again movement are in open revolt after founder Robert F. Kennedy Jr. publicly backed President Trump’s executive order Wednesday that would increase domestic production of glyphosate—a pesticide the MAHA movement and Kennedy have railed against.

"Vani Hari, an ally of Kennedy who goes by 'Food Babe,' told The Washington Post she was left 'speechless' by the move.

" 'We truly were hoping that this administration would put people over corporate power,' she said, 'but this action moves us away from that commitment.'

"#Trump’s executive order invoked the #DefenseProductionAct to boost domestic production of glyphosate, the active ingredient in #Bayer’s #Roundup products. Currently, the US imports large quantities of glyphosate from China, according to Reuters.

"The MAHA movement has been vehemently opposed to the use of glyphosate, claiming it contributes to childhood health problems. In 2024, Kennedy—an anti-vaccine activist and environmental lawyer who was then running for president—wrote on social media: 'The herbicide Glyphosate is one of the likely culprits in America’s chronic disease epidemic. … Shockingly, much of our exposure comes from its use as a desiccant on wheat, not as an #herbicide. From there it goes straight into our bodies. My USDA will ban that practice.' " [Yeah, right, sure you will... And I have a bridge I can sell you.]

Environmental #pesticide exposure and the risk of irritable bowel syndrome: A case-control study

Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology
Volume 98, March 2023, 104076
Lola Rueda-Ruzafa, Pablo Roman, Diana Cardona, Mar Requena, Carmen Ropero-Padilla, Raquel Alarcón

Highlights

• The risk of irritable bowel syndrome is higher in areas of high pesticide exposure.
• Agronomic criteria were used to categorize pesticide exposure in the study population.
• A total of 18,807 cases of irritable bowel syndrome were studied.
• Environmental pesticide exposure is linked to irritable bowel syndrome.

Abstract
The agricultural model in southern #Spain is highly productive, mainly due to the intensive cultivation under plastic. Despite strict pesticide regulation, human exposure to pesticides in the environment has been connected to an increase in diseases such as #CeliacDisease. Certain pesticides have also been associated to the disruption of the intestinal #microbiota, which has been xtied to the development of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). A case-control study was conducted in Andalusia, south #Spain, to assess the prevalence and risk of IBS related to pesticide exposure. This research found a high prevalence of IBS in #Andalusia between 2000 and 2021 in areas with high pesticide exposure using agronomic criteria. Furthermore, the odds ratio for IBS was significantly higher in the population with high pesticide exposure. This study suggests that pesticides may be involved in IBS, whereas more research is needed to determine the role of pesticides in IBS symptomatology.

Excerpts: "[In the locations of the study], the most commonly used insecticides are #organophosphates (primarily chlorpyrifos), N-methylcarbamates, macrocyclic lactones, #neonicotinoids, and pyrethroids. #Fungicides frequently used in plastic greenhouses include (di) thiocarbamates, conazoles, dicarboximide), anilino-pyrimidines, and copper salts. Bipyridyl (paraquat, diquat), organophosphonates (#glyphosate), chlorotriazine, and phenylurea are the herbicides most popularly used in the study areas (García-García et al., 2016)."

[...]

Studies on Rats

"A wide range of environmental pollutants, including heavy metals, insecticides, herbicides, and pesticides, can cause gut dysbiosis (Jin et al., 2015, Lin et al., 2020, Reygner et al., 2016). As suggested in our findings, there is also an increased risk of IBS precisely in pesticide-heavy areas and particularly in women. Previous research have found sexually dimorphic metabolic effect after pesticides exposures (Lukowicz et al., 2018). In this regard, #Roundup®, a glyphosate-based herbicide (#GBH) widely used in Andalusian crops, can increase the #Bacteroidetes group while decreasing the #Lactobacillaceae family in fecal samples of female rats (Lozano et al., 2018). Similarly, chronic glyphosate exposure reduces Corynebacterium, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Lactobacillus in mice following GBH administration (Aitbali et al., 2018). Exposure to fungicides such as imazalil can also alter the composition of the GM after acute and chronic administration. Specifically, in mice, imazalil increases the relative abundance of Firmicutes, Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria while decreasing the abundance of Bacteroidetes (Jin et al., 2016). Insecticides such as chlorpyrifos, diazinon and aldicarb also disrupt the GM of rats and mice (Aitbali et al., 2018, Gao et al., 2019, Gao et al., 2017, Joly et al., 2013). This modification has been associated with increased intestinal permeability and bacterial translocation in the case of chlorpyrifos (Condette et al., 2014). Diazinon inhibits several SCFA-producing genera in the Lachnospiraceae family, which operate as an energy substrate for colonic epithelial cells, altering energy harvesting in the intestinal epithelium (Gao et al., 2017)."

#GMOCorn & #Glyphosate: New evidence for precaution from Mexican scientists

March 4, 2025

"Most #corn grown in the U.S. is #GeneticallyModified to tolerate the spraying of #glyphosate-based herbicides. These #herbicides are linked to cancer, endocrine disruption and other health concerns.

"#Mexico banned genetically modified (#GM) corn from use in tortillas in 2023. The #US challenged the policy as an unfair trade practice, claiming Mexico’s precautionary policies were not based on science. In response, Mexico’s national science agency compiled one of the most comprehensive and thorough reviews to date of current scientific evidence showing #HealthRisks associated with production and consumption of the most widely grown crop in the U.S.

"In this webinar, the former director of Mexico’s National Council for Humanities, Science and Technology and the agency’s lead researcher on the topic presented Mexico’s recently released scientific review document. The evidence draws on recent literature to make the case that there are unacceptable health risks from GM corn and glyphosate for Mexican people who consume large quantities of minimally processed corn in food products such as tortillas.

"Dr. #ElenaÁlvarezBuylla, who directed the national science agency for six years, outlined the research carried out to underpin Mexico’s 2023 decree to restrict the use of GM corn in tortillas and other minimally processed corn products, and to phase out the use of glyphosate.

"Erica Hagman Aguilar presented the key findings from the well-referenced 200-page science dossier, which was recently translated into English.

"This webinar was moderated by researcher and writer Timothy A. Wise.

"The discussion was co-hosted with #USRightToKnow, a nonprofit public health research group. It was presented with simultaneous English/Spanish interpretation. "

"Advocates began sounding the alarm over PFAS in pesticides in 2023. The #Biden EPA attempted to discredit the author of one study that identified PFAS in pesticides, and the agency appeared to have lied about whether some of the chemicals are in pesticides. Under Donald #Trump, the EPA has increased the number of PFAS proposed for use in pesticides."

#California farms applied millions of pounds of #PFAS to key crops, study finds

‘#ForeverChemicals’ sprayed on #almonds, #grapes, #tomatoes and other crops as activists warn of ‘obvious problem’

by Tom Perkins
Tue 18 Nov 2025 07.00 EST

Excerpt: "California farms applied an average of 2.5m lbs of PFAS “forever chemicals” per year on cropland from 2018 to 2023, or a total of about 15m lbs, a new review of state records shows.

The chemicals are added to pesticides that are sprayed on crops such as almonds, pistachios, #wine grapes, #alfalfa and tomatoes, the review of California Department of Pesticide Regulation data found. The Environmental Working Group nonprofit put together the report.

The risk for uptake of PFAS is likely higher in water-rich fruits and vegetables, because water attracts the chemicals, and research has shown PFAS may concentrate at dangerous levels in some produce. The chemicals also pollute water supplies and present a higher risk to the often low income and Latino #farmworkers."

The Impact of a Ghostwritten Paper on the Fate of #Glyphosate - A downsized #EPA faces a deadline to review the #herbicide #safety without much of its in-house expertise. In Oct 2026 EPA must release decision on use of America’s most widely used herbicide. It will mark milestone in the 15-year registration review cycle for #pesticides (the umbrella legal term in the U.S. which includes #herbicides, #insecticides #fungicides #rodenticides) mandated under federal #law https://undark.org/2025/08/15/opinion-ghostwritten-paper-glyphosate/

@s8n @icedquinn @realcaseyrollins @freemo you might be too young to know about the anti-gmo movement that was trying to stop monsanto (now bayer) from patenting seeds, and selling #soy and #canola crops that are resistant to a "probably carcinogenic" substance, according to the (WHO), called #glyphosate, its the active ingredient in a product that monsanto also had the patent of for many years, called #RoundUp. Roundup is a herbicide marketed to farmers to "kill all the green" and the GM seeds were designed to be resistent to the glyphosate. anyway it turns out that most adults have the toxic glyphosate in their urine because the substance is often illegally used by farmers to speed up drying, a process called #greenBurndown.

Glyphosate might only be carcinogenic for humans but for our gut bacteria, our micro-biome, it just kills them.

So now you know.
