[PEN-L:28665] Re: The perils of trying to heal the rift

[Michael Perelman <michael@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sewage coming from human waste products is a perfectly fine source of
fertilizer.  The problem is all the other stuff that we throw into the
water treatment facilities -- industrial wastes included.

An even uglier policy is the government's regulations that allow toxic
waste products -- including nuclear waste -- to be added to fertilizer.
It is a major business and a real boon to the producers of toxic waste.
