Choosing a fabric for your new sofa

Choosing a fabric for your new sofa http://wp.me/p7lU3-Qv

Design decisions influence our health –so your choice of a sofa fabric could influence you and your family in ways far beyond what you imagined.  Our children start life with umbilical cords infused with chemicals that affect the essence of human life itself  –   the ability to learn, reason and reproduce.  And fabric – which cocoons us most of the time, awake and asleep – is a contributor to…

Abjections

Berlinde de Bruyckere. Suffering and protection

J’ai mal à la jambe :

je voudrais qu’on me l’arrache

comme une mauvaise dent.

Des racines brûlantes

bloquent les articulations

en dispersant des aiguilles de métal.

En moi s’est formée une douleur errante,

une plaie qui pleure des heures et

qu’une main de lâche ouvre ou referme

comme une porte en bois aux charnières

sorties de leur axe.

Remember Corexit, the dispersant used in the BP cleanup (if cleanup is the right word)? At the time, Scientific American called the use of Corexit a “massive, uncontrolled experiment being run in the Gulf of Mexico.” The Scientific American article pointed out that Corexit “exerts a synergistic effect when mixed with oil, increasing its toxicity”. So how have things shaken out since 2010? Lori Bosarge of Coden, Alabama, was exposed to Corexit when it was sprayed on Portersville Bay, a quarter mile from her home. First, Lori struggled with debilitating breathing issues and constant skin rashes. Later, in 2016, she began to have seizures, and then an aneurism. But, she says, many folks around Coden and Bayou La Batre are even sicker. And so Lori has become an activist, keeping national environmental watchdog groups abreast of the situation on the Alabama Coast. According to a report by the Government Accountability Project (2018), cancer rates are rising fast in Gulf communities exposed to Corexit. The symptoms jibe with warnings on the manufacturer label, stating Corexit’s potential human health hazard is high, and exposure can cause central nervous system effects as well as kidney and liver damage. And yet BP continues to use it- years after the EPA told them to stop. Since the Corexit used in the Exxon Valdez cleanup is still on the Alaskan seabed 29 years later, it looks like it could be around for a long time to come. ‪#BP #oilspill #Corexit #dispersant #cleanup #gulfofmexico #Environment #Gulf #deepwater #DeepwaterHorizon #Toxic #coden #bayoulabatre #alabama ‬#itsalwaystheaftermath (at Coden, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuUqkMqFuvg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15px28l4r02wo

Study shows toxic effects of oil dispersant on oysters following deepwater horizon spill

Study shows toxic effects of oil dispersant on oysters following deepwater horizon spill

[ad_1] A new study finds that oysters likely suffered toxic effects from the oil dispersant Corexit® 9500 when it was used to clean up the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Researchers determined this by comparing the low levels of toxicity of oil, the dispersant and a mixture of the two on Eastern oysters. [ad_2] Source link

Modeling Study Characterizes Droplet and Bubble Formation in Subsea Oil Spills

Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GoMRI) ~ Illustration of the interaction of oil droplets and gas bubbles on the formation of oil and gas during the Deepwater Horizon incident. The presence of gas in the discharged plume reduced oil droplet size. https://www.environmentguru.com/pages/elements/element.aspx?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=tumblr&id=6029024
