  1. Immersion in a hot toxic soup

    From humans, wildlife and invertebrates: Simultaneous exposure of toxins and climate harms likely to cause reduced fertility

    An " ‘alarming’ effect on fertility across global species from simultaneous exposures."

    "The chemicals are ubiquitous in consumer goods, so humans are often regularly exposed."

    “There is enough evidence in both areas to act to reduce our impact on the planet...The solution to the systemic problems would involve reining in climate change and reducing the use of toxic chemicals." >>

    "You can kill a person with post-harvest burning just as well as with an axe”.
    (Bertolt Brech, slightly altered)

    "Structural violence
    is a form of violence wherein some social structure or social institution may harm people by preventing them from meeting their basic needs or rights."
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structur

    When residents express their concerns about the prolonged toxic pollution to the relevant state institutions, the response is along the lines of 'close up your house, stay indoors or move away and shut up.'

  21. Toxic smoke pollution maximising harm

    The government's Forestry Corporation of NSW is still polluting the Bellingen, Gleniffer and Repton area with toxic smoke. Wet piles and the green timber piles are smouldering. After a cocktail of pesticides was applied, the wet piles with green timber were set alight and are left smouldering for days, maximising the toxic smoke pollution over a wide area.

    These negative externalities occur when the consumption or production of a commodity (cellulose) causes a harmful effect to a third party.

    It appears that the Forestry Corporation and EPA evade or pass responsibility and the many concerned residents ring 000 and overburden the small Gleniffer Bushfire Brigade now...

    The state-owned Forestry Corporation of NSW (FCNSW) is doing ‘Planned Burns’ to the unwanted left-overs after logging and clear felling Tuckers Nob State Forests. The so-called ‘plantations’ or cellulose factory is or was a rich bio-diverse ecosystem before the destruction.

    Many residents live in the area and wildlife has moved back into the sprouting desert.The area has been declared a ‘hazard’ and 36 ha are being incinerated. They call it ‘Hazard Reduction’ because they have dried out the microclimate and increased the bushfire risk.

    Through a government decision and outmoded management practices every living being with a lung is now being wilfully exposed to toxic smoke from incineration.
    It is not bushfire smoke from climate disruption, but an intentional collateral to extracting cellulose from bio-diversity which has to be subsidised by tax payers. This is turning the area and the breathing beings into a sacrifice zone.

    The air-filled sacs in the lungs, the alveoli are forced to act as a cost-effective vacuum cleaner for forestry’s “Hazard Reduction” fallout, cleaning up their ‘debris’.

    There are no health warnings issued. The reduced air quality leads to exposure to bushfire smoke. Fire-induced health impacts lead to mortalities from particulate matter, increased cardio-respiratory hospital admissions and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases.
