Plastic Water Contamination

A world study published yesterday (September, 5 2017) in The Guardian, shows an Orb Media sponsored world wide study, that reveals 94% of The United States water supply was contaminated, along with high contamination rates elsewhere in the world.

Plastic Microfibers : Delivery Vehicle for Dangerous Pathogens

Dr Anne Marie Mahon at the Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology, who conducted the research, said

there were two principal concerns: very small plastic particles and the chemicals or pathogens that microplastics can harbour. “If the fibres are there, it is possible that the nanoparticles are there too that we can’t measure,” she said. “Once they are in the nanometre range they can really penetrate a cell and that means they can penetrate organs, and that would be worrying.”

The Orb analyses caught particles of more than 2.5 microns in size, 2,500 times larger than a nanometre.

The Guardian report fishes around to find the source of the contaminant, showing several indicators and tests that the atmosphere contains the fibers, and the only question in that is do they get there through water evaporation or how do they get there? The did conclusively find that the plastic fibers are in the air.

The Guradian’s Damian Carrington, Environmental Editor found a slew of reports and test by marine biologists showing how much of this stuff is coming up in sea water.

The High Contamination Levels in Centralized Water

Plastic is by far not the only contaminant fed to communities through centralized water systems. There are many contaminants found in city water supplies throughout the world. Some are interesting consistencies and the investigation into water is beyond a simple one, for someone looking to gain a profound understanding. Yet still, water is not the only potential delivery mechanism of this plastic micro fiber containment.

Nutritional Diversifists realizing their science is sister-ed by nature and uncontaminated edible material production, know that we need to cut down on plastic production in general, and first and foremost we need to address the contaminate in what we can address it in, such as our water, and in our bodies. This is exactly why deep inland mountain, forest, and jungle water and food sources are so valuable today. With the rising to 9 billion population and this type and size of usage and plastic production, we are riding a very dangerous line, we need to go back to living harmoniously with nature, and I mean yesterday.

Home Water filtration for purchase comes immediately to thought but most water filters according to the Guardian and other sources don’t catch these particular contaminants, nor fluoride or chlorine additives found in most city central distribution water systems.

[box type=”info”] Water contamination is becoming a bigger and bigger problem! It’s not just fluoride now, but plastic??!![/box]

Groundwater especially from mountains should remain a good source, and digging a spring is not hard, neither is building a sand filter, nor do they require a lot of tools or materials. This information however essential and important does not reside in the majority of minds, trying to keep of with their insane lives of the day.

According to the Guardian piece, every of the 24 retail beers they tested contained high amounts of the fibers. I have long thought that if Dasani, Coke, or Peter Pan Peanut Butter ever had an evil accident, the tole would be serious.

Your own permaculture family farm, would be the best way to have regular fresh food and filter water from these fibers as I doubt they would pass a large sized four stage sand, charcoal, filter or photosynthesis, or the banana’s, nor the coconut’s casing. These types of contamination’s make me think about durable foods, underground root foods, and water filtering and delivery systems for wildlife to have access to. Permacultures out side of the equator tropical zone may want to start looking into multistage water filtration systems immediately.

Geographical Factors

The other thing this type of contamination makes me thankful for; is being nine degrees from the equator right now here in The Republic of Panama.

Ten degrees out from the equator to the Northern and Southern Hemispheric weather activity returns, towards it’s pole We have seen this dependably in storm weather, the one that just left the Caribbean as I write this, is Hurricane Irma. This return includes it’s Northern or Southern Hemispheric contaminants.

Keep it in mind; that close to the equator, the Earth can restart if heavily contaminated (hopefully).

The contamination is not really going be deterred b y hot or cold places, these particles are going to accumulate and build up in every part of the world, and ultimately if it continues too long the biology here will not be able to digest or deal with this type of plastic contamination anywhere.

Water Contamination Solutions

Microplastics are also known to contain and absorb toxic chemicals and pathogens research on wild animals have shown these types of contaminants. Prof Richard Thompson, at Plymouth University, UK, told Orb: “It became clear very early on that the plastic would release those chemicals and that actually, the conditions in the gut would facilitate really quite rapid release.” His research has shown micro-plastics are found in a third of fish caught in the UK.

This pollution is a serious health threat, and we need water contamination solutions on the double.

While some have claimed that particular industries such as the the fabric material industries could be to blame in part, Patagonia, the clothing manufacturer did extensive research of their own, to find that clothing fibers do make up a large part of the contamination, also bottles and plastic bags. Patagonia as a company, has dedicated itself to making a non shedding garment, and found through it’s research that low quality material and garments shed more into the water stream. I know here in the islands, many washing machines also a source named Patagonia’s research, after thoughts to poor houses simply pump into the irrigation channels that empty into the water.

How to prevent this contamination at the home level, and how to rid the body of the contamination it has already received? Already we have seen many good filter options to at least prevent the consumption of more microfibers.

A crowdfunded idea, called a Guppy Bag is now available through Patagonia Clothing Company and the bag captures 99 percent of synthetic fibers in all of it’s tests. What I have done is a separate washer drain line that has a filter tank on it that can be emptied every six months. I would love to step it up into a hydroponic house plant growing medium for clear containers and explain to guests how easy it was to save the stuff from clogging up Mother Earth.

No doubt the contamination, makes for a incredible business opportunity, for inventors and services of cleanup. If a good cleanup movement is to be effective, it will need new innovative, professional entrepreneurs to conduct massive cleanup, and smart disposal operations.

Stop the Plastic Microfiber Pollution

Obviously the guaranteed solution to this issue, is to stop using plastic all together, to shut down the plastic plants, and give them a reasonable and profitable out by paying these experts what they were making as business, and employing them to the task of cleanup. We need to live in harmony with nature. Reforestation is the weapon in to fighting contamination.

100% cotton, linen, wool, hemp, garments, do not contaminate the environment with non-natural fibers. Re-usable shopping bags, made of cloth or even a new mushroom fiber fabric, and reusable water bottles would cut down plastic contamination by roughly one third. Simply make the switch and do your part. A micro fiber filter bag has been created to collect the fibers when washing clothes.

Clean the Body of Plastic Microfibers

Unfortunately I don’t have a specific thing to say here. I can theorize on a few cleanses, but for plastic microfibers to be accumulating in body tissues surely equates to disaster at some point.

The best thing remains to get a good water filter.

Clean the Sea of Plastic Micro Fibers

Here in Central America about a couple years ago. I got a ride one day from a cat running one of these turn plastic fibers in to clothes operations. I would have been happy waiting for the bus. I think the clothing concept would be a great one. Could it motivate a microfiber collection industry to clean the sea of microfibers? I would certainly buy products made from fiber pollutants cleaned from the sea.

Patagonia revamped to make a high quality shed-less garment after realizing plastic fiber contamination, which the clothing industry is partly responsible for.

What products could be derived (besides hydroponic growing medium) from these fibers? Could long running pumps installed at sea easily filter out fibers by the tons? Wouldn’t it be a great endeavor to create valuable products made from cleaning this caustic problem from the environment?

Several cool inventions have been created that can remove a lot of the big waster which eventually will break down into micro wastes.

TARGET 10: Enhance Biodiversity and Sustainability in Agriculture, Aquaculture, Fisheries, and Forestry

The Importance of Educating and Implementing a One-Point Government Against Genetic Modification of Nature

In an age of technological advancement and scientific innovation, the temptation to genetically modify nature has grown significantly. While such modifications promise solutions to global problems, they also present substantial risks to ecosystems, biodiversity, and the fundamental balance of life on Earth. The call for a one-point government policy—an unwavering stance against genetic modification of nature—is not only a plea for ecological preservation but also an invitation for humanity to adopt a culture of empowerment, education, and ecological responsibility.

The Case Against Genetic Modification of Nature

Genetic modification, while often well-intentioned, disrupts the intricate harmony of ecosystems. Genetically modified species can outcompete native species, disrupt food chains, and lead to unforeseen ecological consequences. Once released, these modifications are irreversible, posing long-term risks to biodiversity and natural systems that have evolved over millennia.

A one-point government policy to prohibit the genetic modification of nature would serve as a global safeguard, ensuring that humanity respects and works with natural processes rather than altering them to fit immediate needs or desires. This stance is not about hindering progress but about prioritizing sustainable and harmonious solutions that benefit both people and the planet.

Empowerment Through Education

Education is the cornerstone of this movement. By teaching individuals and communities about the dangers of genetic modification and the benefits of working with natural systems, we can foster a culture of respect and stewardship for the environment. Nutritional Diversity culture—which emphasizes consuming and cultivating a wide variety of natural, organic foods—provides a powerful framework for this education.

This culture promotes alternative agriculture that is resilient, sustainable, and aligned with the natural rhythms of the Earth. By understanding the principles of biodiversity and regenerative practices, individuals can become active participants in creating healthier ecosystems. Educational programs should focus on:

Understanding Biodiversity: The importance of maintaining genetic diversity in crops and livestock to ensure resilience against diseases and environmental changes.
Alternative Agriculture Practices: Techniques like permaculture, guerrilla farming, and biodynamic agriculture that enhance soil health, water retention, and crop yields without synthetic inputs.
Nutritional Diversity for Health: The link between diverse diets and optimal physical and mental performance, encouraging individuals to grow and consume a wide range of nutrient-rich foods.

Household Empowerment as Ecological Empowerment

The shift toward ecological responsibility begins at home. Households can become microcosms of ecological empowerment, contributing to broader environmental health while fostering personal well-being. This grassroots approach diminishes the need for large institutional governance, instead placing the power to create change directly in the hands of individuals and communities. We have two operational sustainable household models [2] that function for multiple guests year-round.

Practical Steps for Household Empowerment:

Home Gardens: Cultivate small-scale gardens that focus on diverse, organic crops. These gardens not only provide fresh, nutritious food but also reconnect individuals with the cycles of nature.
Composting: Transform household waste into valuable compost to enrich soil and reduce landfill contributions.
Water Conservation: Implement rainwater harvesting and efficient irrigation systems to minimize water usage while supporting lush, productive gardens. Water enhancements.
Community Collaboration: Form local cooperatives to share resources, knowledge, and labor, creating a sense of unity and shared purpose.

The Benefits of Freedom to Work With Nature

By rejecting genetic modification and embracing a culture of empowerment and responsibility, individuals gain the freedom to work with the natural world rather than against it. This approach offers numerous benefits:

Resilience: Natural systems, when nurtured, are inherently resilient and capable of adapting to environmental changes without human interference.
Health: Consuming unmodified, nutrient-dense foods supports optimal physical and mental performance.
Sustainability: Regenerative practices improve soil health, increase biodiversity, and sequester carbon, combating climate change.
Autonomy: Empowered households and communities reduce dependence on industrial agriculture and centralized systems, fostering greater independence and self-reliance.

Educational and Implementational Teams in South and Central America

Across South and Central America, our dedicated teams are working tirelessly to educate and implement sustainable, nature-aligned practices. These teams are embedded in local communities, providing hands-on training, workshops, and resources to empower individuals to adopt Nutritional Diversity culture and alternative agriculture techniques.

Our online education platform is operational, offering accessible, comprehensive resources on regenerative practices, biodiversity, and ecological stewardship. This platform connects learners with experts and peers, creating a vibrant community of ecological advocates.

In addition, our innovative app facilitates the logging of new project sites and coordinates ecologically enhancing practices. This tool enables real-time collaboration among participants, tracks progress, and ensures alignment with sustainable goals. By integrating technology with grassroots efforts, we’re creating a dynamic ecosystem of support that empowers individuals and communities to take charge of their ecological and nutritional well-being.

We have an open invitation to interests to come down and experience the diet, and see the agriculture.

A Vision for the Future

A global commitment to preserving the integrity of nature through a one-point government policy against genetic modification represents a profound act of respect for the Earth and future generations. By educating and empowering individuals to adopt Nutritional Diversity culture, alternative agriculture practices, and household-level ecological responsibility, we can create a sustainable, harmonious world where freedom and nature thrive together.

Let us rise to this challenge, cultivating not only our gardens but also our collective potential to live in harmony with the natural world. Together, we can achieve a legacy of ecological integrity and human empowerment.

UNCHAINING HEALTH, AND 35 MILLION KIDS IN ABUSIVE CAPTIVITY THROUGH BRAINWASHING RIGHT NEAR YOU!

Published

3 months ago

November 1, 2024

Brandon Angel

A most unfortunate story I never wanted to tell, I never wanted to experience, I would truly still wish on no man…

Law of Polarity: I gained an intense remedy through the fierce pain of my spirit.

By saying where the pain was, I am also talking about the remedy for exactly that pain, gained through that very experience.

All challenges are opportunities to build strength.

I just repeat this over and over throughout my day,

There is so much I was unable to tell about my story in this two-hour podcast like, my experience with how pills to kids are wrong.

It’s crazy that in our culture I have to explain that. That I ever had to live it at all.

It is quite an evil reach to get where we are. You won’t know that until you are grounded in nature.

That process of recalibrating with the natural rhythms and cognitions takes a long time. A deep venture in all ways.

When you are fighting such injustice, and you have educated yourself by the specialists on how damaging this is for children, and you see that there is nothing that you can do, in fact, the punishment for trying to assert your right is a gradual worsening of the lies told, a new form of false accusation or dirty trick (which they have so many and they are used in these unfortunate cases of trafficking for profit; so much), in essence, the knowledge that whatever attempt to contact the child will cause their abuser to turn up the volume will keep the good parent at bay. That good parent knows any contact will be exploited and twisted, and at least today I can say I have had zero hand in what has happened. Not only did I educate myself on how damaging this is (mistake 1 for alienated parents), I sent it all to the abuser. I made a few support groups that shared that information, and they harassed the groups. Another facilitator of support groups contacted me, explaining this “Jerry Springer Family,” also obsessively harassed him thinking I was the administrator of his group. I watched at the same time this ‘alienator” make fake Facebook and stalk her own family with them to make it seem like it was me. All this childishness worked. It is a masterpiece of child abuse and deception of everyone around the situation. My ex-girlfriend’s entire family was stalked for a decade.

The intention is to completely destroy the person, and this is usually because the “parasite no longer has the host!”

Young men and women should be educated about these damages, and anyone engaging in this “witchcraft,” is responsible for child devastation – this intense obsessive abuse, with the illest of intentions, is horrible sabotage to a young life.

They think their abuser is their hero. This is the evidence of the daily brainwashing, extreme daily psychological/spiritual child abuse.

They will think that into truth 1000 ways before they finally:

PASS their DENIAL of THE TRUTH. …!!!!

Sound familiar?

Impact

Even feeding the microbiome one time this way, can start underlining the ability to think clearly and productively and then engage reasonably with self-construction tactics and practices that lead to total recovery. We have hosted Nutritionally Diverse Meet-ups in the past for this purpose.

Community Building

We have a nutritional community that comes with one one-on-one guidance from an experienced practitioner of the ACTUAL HEALTH SYSTEM. Not to mention the effects this demand could have on the world.

Join the team, make a difference 1 for your loved ones, 2 for yourself, 3 for the world 💥💥💥

Another fun history and reason naturalists may enjoy this project is that Nutritional Diversity .com has been around the whole kidnapping as a way to share nature, and wholesomeness in hopes that it could defeat some other kind of inventive storytelling that was regular practice for the kidnappers. If you click on the Hailey Tropical Farm link in the menu you can see some of that history there.

It also served as a distraction, to the stalking, and harassing while I had no kid of theirs people; who did commit award-winning criminal harassment on like everyone I know.. recruited a few too!! It is impressive!!

Anyone who waists their time and talent on such a horrible endeavor, like my once princesses or like 50’s oldest son’s mother should ………….

Now at least from a distance, I can show the power of long-term commitment as I turn the site into something else.

If the child exhibits the extreme effects/results outlined in the clinical outlines for this heinous daily spiritual child abuse — GUESS WHY!!?!???

…did you stand by it? Did you help, enable it?

I actually do pray for you.

We are swimming hard in the other direction!!! LIGHT PLEASE!!! Join us.

Nutritional Diversity .com is now a community that is dedicated to advancing health at a household level. Taking full responsibility for your diet and relationship with nature is one of many things we came here to do! That could not be more clear today.
