"Using publicly available #data from 2006-2023, the #study... found there to be an estimated 402-433m cases of unintentional acute #pesticide #poisoning of #farmers & #farm #workers every year. Based on a worldwide farming population of 934 million, this means approximately 46% of farmers are being #poisoned every year. The greatest estimated number of #oisonings was in southern #Asia, followed by south-east Asia & east #Africa."

    "Fortunately, the symptoms were only temporary & he could make a full recovery. A subsequent #analysis by both the Wakayama Prefectural Museum of Natural History & the Wakayama City #PublicHealth Division determined tt the mushrooms were tsukiyotake, a #poisonous species often confused for edible ones"

    2025 #UraniumFilmFestival - IN EXILE

    USA, 2023, Director: Nathan Fitch, Producer: Angela Edward, Documentary, English, 12 min.

    "In Exile explores the US nuclear legacy in the Pacific through the lens of members of the #Marshallese community in Arkansas. The Marshallese were told their islands in Micronesia were essential for the good of mankind for #OperationCrossroads, a series of nuclear tests in #BikiniAtoll commencing in 1946. In a highly choreographed scene photographed by an array of military cameras, the Marshallese begin the process of leaving their home islands for an exile that has now lasted 77 years. They could not know that their islands would be #vaporized, their waters #poisoned, and their bodies used as test subjects by the US government."
