  3. Two years after Russian opposition leader #AlexeiNavalny died in prison, five European countries claim they have identified the substance that killed him: epibatidine, an extremely lethal #toxin produced by the South American poison dart frog. But why go through the trouble of using such a rare, exotic #poison naturally found only on the other side of the world? Some experts believe #Navalny may have been used as a lab rat.

  10. After Rachel Carson’s courageous “Silent Spring” exposé back in 1962, surely by now we’ve learned not to release bioaccumulating toxins into ecosystems.

    No, of course not.

    “Results suggest biomagnification of PFAS from soil, mushrooms, and berries to bank voles, from mushrooms to ungulates and from voles to the owl. ... Our study supports that terrestrial wildlife magnifies PFAS from the environment and highlights largely unexplored yet worrying effects on wildlife health.”

  12. Some arrived to work on July 9 to find their badges no longer worked, Henderson said.

    Because of a #federal #HiringFreeze that has been extended through October 15, the #USDA will not be able to replace the fired staff & will need to halt ongoing #scientific work that benefits #farmers, like a project to develop a #vaccine for a deadly #toxin that occurs in undercooked #beef, he said.

  23. After years of aggressive expansion
    we now gotta admit
    that the perimeter is shrinking

    Push back against
    are share the hate agenda
    was greater than anticipated

    We'll leave it to biased historians
    to analyze why our movement failed
    but now we gotta execute
    a regrettable exit strategy

    #Toxin laced brownies
    will be disbursed
    from our Bunker Cafe
    for your Final Solution consumption

  24. The EU has banned BPAs: here’s what you need to know about this common, toxic compound.

    The European Union has banned the use of bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disruptor widely used in plastics.

    This came into effect with Regulation 2024/3190 in late 2024, but it took over 20 years of scientific study to cut out this silent toxin.
