May come a time where polluted land can only grow crops for digesters.Just spread all this waste on the "ReWilding" areas. Its not used for food production. Make the trees and flowers and weeds grow better.

I believe, in terms of microplastics, there will shortly be no such thing as unpolluted land.May come a time where polluted land can only grow crops for digesters.
When Supermarkets decide they don’t want microplastics from their suppliers RT will be forced to support ban of their use.
Have microplastics been shown to cause a health problem in humans or wildlife?
Just because we can detect that they are there shouldn't be a huge concern if they are harmless. Why should plastic, being a fairly inert substance be any different from any other inert micro particles that are all around us?
Not that I'm endorsing widespread pollution by plastic waste. I f*cking hate bale wrap gets round everything and wrecks oil seals. Wouldn't be too bothered if I never saw another wrapped bale again!
Funnily enough, I said the same thing yesterday in conversation with someone. Would explain the rise in heart disease in recent times.
I think it is mainly due to sugar, too many carbs, too much vegie oil (and ultra processed food) mainly.I think that might be down to a lack of exercise and ever worsening diet.
Unlikely. More likely is that the water companies will be lobbying to dodge any blame. Supermarkets sell a lot of products with unnecessary plastic that become the next load of microplastic.When Supermarkets decide they don’t want microplastics from their suppliers RT will be forced to support ban of their use.
But does that have anything to do with micro plastic?Sewage sludge not allowed on veg and some other crops
I think heart disease has been falling for years, both mortality and incidence.Funnily enough, I said the same thing yesterday in conversation with someone. Would explain the rise in heart disease in recent times.
But does that have anything to do with micro plastic?
And is that just immediately prior to growing certain crops or can it be used elsewhere in a rotation?
I don’t know but I’m guessing the public don’t like the idea of their.......or possibly worse still someone else’s sh!t being used to grow the food they eat, after all , many don’t like dirty carrots, spuds etc with a bit of soil on them
Mainly down to the falling away of smoking over a period of decades. I doubt that trend is set to continue though, smoking will have nearly faded away as the biggest issue.I think heart disease has been falling for years, both mortality and incidence.
Why? They’ll just say it’s all the fault of their suppliers and the supermarkets’ halo remains intact. They won’t be telling anyone its all their fault.I would think that the supermarkets would be scared shitless of opening that can of worms.
Ultimately, like every existential threat, it's politics. The GP have been pushing this issue up the political agenda for years. Just one example of why, despite so much cr@p written on here, they are the only party that are truly on the side of farmers.

If a plastic eating bug didget loose in the 'wild' theWish I had listened to mine. Just walking lambing fields picking the odd bit up hear and there just about filled an old fashioned dust bin. That's not just thrown in, that's pushed down. About half could be farm plastic but a cutlery tray? in the middle of a field. Also in the rough grazing found what would have been a trampoline, that's half a mile from nearest house, and much farther from a road so must have been airborn to reach there.
Read on a news feed last week that there is a natural bug/yeast/enzyme or summat that breaks down plastics in a fairly short time frame (months). Now that could be a saviour, or it could be interesting how life as we know it would cope if this is an uncontrollable organism. Maybe some of "Science Fiction" may come true.
