Regarding the Water Pollution I am really concern about it. When i was young i used to play in our "Sapa" its a small river. But right now the sapa is over polluted.That was 9 years ago, it was still clean. Casandra Taylors last blog post..Summer Water Resolutions

Try using some of the natural drain cleaners before using the chemical cleaners.

Even the hand held plungers or the pipesnakes are a great way to avoid the chemicals part of the time.

Nice post. I heard that parasite sites do give good ranking, is it true?

We can always take action in our homes. That is where everything starts.

Except for hanging humvee owners, of course.

Thanks for dropping by.

This is a serious problem. It's annoying how people just talk about it, but don't talk any serious action. On another note, I just wish there was a ban on SUV's and that people with hummers were hanged. John Segals last blog post..How is maple syrup made from the maple tree?

Yep, moderation is always the key, eh? Chemical fertilizers leave salts behind, increasing the soil’s acidity. Thanks, always a pleasure to know somebody blogging for nature and the environment.

@TN, it’s almost a case like that with feeding ourselves – we all know the dangers of eating too much. Plants just can’t survive the acidity after so much fertiliser.

Thanks for your comments on my site, by the way.

Hello…

Sorry for letting the comments pile up. Been busy with World Environment Day and our Environment Month.

@Chessmaster

Monsanto is wreaking havoc not only with genes but with 3rd world agricultural systems. That’s where they discard chemicals and fertilizers that are no longer acceptable in the West, at a high price.

They introduce and entice farmers to plant high-yield corn but their varieties require more nutrients and are susceptible to pests and diseases. That’s when they or their cohorts sell chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and fungicides.

Heard about the Golden Rice? It did produce gold for big businesses.

@Foong

We do hear about Indonesia’s massive forest fires almost every year. Malaysia seems to be paying the cost for somebody else’s negligence. I’m not familiar with Indonesia’s forestry policies but they have one of the world’s most diverse forest.

@Kristie

My pleasure.

@Harmony

Ground pollution? Like poisoning and killing the soil? Our scientists have not failed in producing superplants, we already have several of them but they have failed to provide a solution because what is man-made needs man-made materials to sustain it, chemicals.

Indigenous cultures and age-old farming practices actually have the answers but we’re not listening because they are not cool and hi-tech. How could ignorant subsistence farmers be better than multi-awarded scientists with triple PhDs?

We need to know how indigenous plant species work with the soil, the topography, and the climate.

I’m going to do a series about them but if you want, you can Google for “agroforestry” and “rainforestation.”

@ Jacqueline

I’m afraid that’s true. We need no alien species to destroy us humans. We’re already going at it with gusto.

@Pradeep

Yeah, Brazil and India are one of the most eco-friendly countries in the world. A proud achievement indeed. It’s easy to be eco-freindly as individuals, but as a nation?

Do you know who belongs to worst? Some of our highly industrialized countries have consistently refused to sign the Kyoto Protocol.

@Selena

Thanks. We still have a lot to do about pollution.

@ Robert

Too much love does kill. If we fertilize our plants, we have to be careful to only put in enough for the plants to consume and that nothing gets carried away by rainwater.
