It's a truly jaw-dropping and shocking scandal, that few people have heard of: chemical wastes are now being deliberately mixed with sewage, then spread on our fields. The impacts on people and ecosystems? No one knows. This week's column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I'm confused. How are microplastics supposed to get past the casparian strip? Heck, how are they even supposed to flow through the cell wall? Roots are basically exceedingly effective filters. Or is the fear having them sprayed on leaves and fruit?

Lovely. But frankly, if the Brits would die out as a result of food contamination, the world might as well perceive it with a relief.

I do, I call it the fish tank theory. I had fish when I was a kid. Neon tetra, black mollys, tiger barb, the whole sort of fresh waters. I was unable to buy the filter and chems to keep the tank clean and proper ph. After a few days, fish started swimming abnormal, some were isolating themselves.

Small, sustainable, organic and permaculture family farms and gardens that feed people and communities are making a difference in both rural and urban areas. Good for people, good for creating habitat, good for the planet. No, can’t feed billions yet, but it’s having an impact.

Nobody can tell us? Turning a blind eye to science is dishonest . What do these people think microplastics do in our anatomical filter systems : our livers and kidneys ?

Does this happen in other countries, from where we might be importing food too?
