The "compost takes care of it" crowd is mind-boggling to me.
Interested in health to avoid an entire societal ecosystem, but not enough to test their own soil, even once.
- Tempest1981 3y ago> "compost takes care of it" crowd Can you explain more? I'm not familiar with this crowd. Takes care of what?
- thsksbd 3y agoSomeone puts stuff into compost that won't break down and is toxic. Then you use it for soil and eat it
- tdeck 3y agoSo what ecosystem is that crowd avoiding?
- DANmode 3y agoVegetables at a store or farmer's market, seemingly.
- tdeck 3y agoPerhaps your interpretation is right, but that would mean there's some group of people who simultaneously says "I know people put toxic chemicals into this industrial compost I use but I'm totally fine with that" and also "I only eat vegetables I grow myself". I highly doubt any such person exists.
- thsksbd 3y agoI wouldnt know.
- fransje26 3y agoThe take is that the microorganisms in compost somehow digest the dangerous chemicals and make them harmless...
- nerdponx 3y agoSame as the "commingled recycling takes care of it" crowd.
