L'empreinte toxique du phosphate
Une enquête de Laurence Grun et Pierre Vanneste pour Nuit Noire production, diffusée par Tchak et Apache
On le trouve dans le Coca, les lessives, les détergents, les médicaments, les cosmétiques, l'industrie textile, pétrochimique et alimentaire, mais surtout dans les engrais (90% de la production). Cet ingrédient, c'est le phosphate transformé en acide phosphorique.
Enquête sur une industrie minière et chimique qui, depuis deux siècles, déplace ses activités selon les législations, laissant derrière elle une contamination souvent irréversible.

Pour atténuer l'absorption du cadmium :
Privilégier les produits Bio (les engrais phosphatés sont interdit en bio)
les produits riches en fibres, en fer qui limitent l’absorption du cadmium
Qu’il soit blanc, aux graines, complet ou bio, le pain est la star de nos repas. Mais tous, sans exception, contiennent des traces de cadmium : un métal lourd utilisé dans l’industrie.

#Phosphate in #NASA's #OSIRISREx #asteroid sample suggests space rock #Bennu hails from an #ocean world
The largest sample returned from an asteroid could contain insights into our #solarsystem's past and the origin of life on Earth.
Early analysis of the near-Earth asteroid Bennu has revealed unexpected evidence of magnesium-sodium phosphate, suggesting Bennu might have originated from a primitive ocean world.

It boggles the mind that #Nauru isn't learning from past mistakes. Also, 10,000 people, who will barely profit from #DeepSeaMining, are buying the hype while #DeepGreen and #GerardBarron disrupts #DeepSeaLife, possibly permanently! Not good...
"#Australia, #NewZealand and #Britain had nearly exhausted the viable deposits of #phosphate by 1968 when Australia granted Nauru sovereignty, leaving behind one of the world’s worst #environmental #disasters."
#Corruption, incompetence and a musical: Nauru’s cursed history
The once-wealthy island now barely survives on income from Australia’s #detention regime and is pinning its economic hopes on #UnderseaMining

#Portfolio | En Tunisie, le paradoxe du phosphate
Le #phosphate est essentiel pour la fabrication d’engrais. Sa présence est concentrée dans quelques pays, dont la #Tunisie. Avec des prix d’exportation record en 2023, le président Kaïs Saïed a promis de relancer la production des phosphates tunisiens. Mais son extraction, au cœur des luttes sociales du bassin minier de Gafsa depuis l’époque de Ben Ali, n’est pas sans conséquences.

Pénurie de phosphore : une famine mondiale à retardement
https://mrmondialisation.org/penurie-de-phosphore-une-famine-mondiale-a-retardement/
Tandis que l’épuisement du pétrole se trouve au centre d’un grand nombre de débats, la raréfaction du phosphore est loin d’être un sujet aussi médiatisé et ne mobilise guère la sphère politique. Son amenuisement face à une demande qui croît de manière exponentielle pourrait, pourtant, signer une rupture avec le modèle agro-industriel dominant. Si une […] The post first appeared on .
