[Science News] Located in the tropics, #Indonesia is one of the world’s wettest regions. But the massive construction of #irrigation canals, the draining of #peatlands and oil palm #plantations have gradually dried up the wetlands. The drying out of these landscapes, combined with the return of El Niño, is leading to an increase in peat fires that release massive clouds of toxic smoke... https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260904000318.htm

Une trentaine au moins de poireaux plantés, c'est la deuxième session de plantations pour les poireaux et il en reste encore, j'attends qu'ils grossissent, avec la météo, au final on fait comme on peut, retard, pas retard, on verra bien et UN chou kale encore.

Pesticide spray drift from intensive horticulture on the the mid-north coast NSW -
Discontent in the region.Home owners, dairy and beef producers among those concerned about how pesticide use affects their land as well as water quality on the mid-north coast
“Between 2001 and 2016 blueberry farming expanded 400% – mainly around the Coffs Harbour region.”
“This monitoring showed the continued detection of pesticides in most waterways sampled, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring in the region.”
“Monitoring in the Nambucca valley by the EPA has detected three different pesticides in low levels in three creeks, suggesting water quality in the area is not being impacted by excessive amounts of pesticides.”

Un appel contre #Bolloré : « Bloquons ses plateaux télés, occupons ses dépôts pétroliers, soutenons les luttes syndicales à l’intérieur de ses entreprises et médias, vendangeons ses vignes, redistribuons son fuel domestique à celleux qui galèrent à se chauffer, traquons le traceur, tissons des alliances internationales, organisons des boycotts, virons ses chaînes de la TNT et soutenons la création et l’assise de contre-pouvoirs médiatiques puissants ! »
