The ocean is pretty big. That's why fish poop and pee in it. Not much of a problem. And if you weren't already aware, did you know plants also excrete waste through their roots? I only found out recently. But yes, all waste needs to be spread out and able to diffuse into the large atmosphere or it causes dead zones.
- pl-94 5y agoPlant wastes are a part of an eco system. They are cunsomed and transformed into other wastes. Actually, only human beings see wastes as a definitive lost. For every sustainable cycles, a waste is going to be transformed into you will consume again.
- hasmanean 5y agoYes. One piece of poop in the forest—nature. A sewer pipe discharging a river of poop from an entire city into a forest—a toxic waste dump. The entire surface of the sea is evaporating fresh water and the resulting brine is slinging constantly. It’s not creating a dead zone because it’s distributed. A river of brine in the oceans would be like a toxic cloud of ammonia that kills anything it touches…until it mixes sufficiently.
- goldenkey 5y agoWhich was my point. As long as the outtake is distributed, it would be fine. I think everyone is aware of that..even the landlubbers.. We kind of figured it out 150+ years ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Stink https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Stink
