Are you putting fracking wastewater in your pool? If you use Clorox pool salt, you might be
Even if you’ve somehow bought into the idea that fracking isn’t all bad, the idea of swimming in fracking wastewater is surely enough to make your skin crawl.

PR, not penalty: EPA lets Syngenta off the hook for poisoning people
Instead of having to fork over the $4.8 million that was demanded as part of a massive lawsuit against the corrupt biotechnology giant, Syngenta Hawaii, a local unit of the Swiss company Syngenta AG, has instead been let off the hook by federal environmental regulators with a mere $150,000 slap on the wrist.

Bees, like many of the world’s insects, are in crisis, and their numbers are dwindling at an alarming rate. At the same time, the world’s population – and its reliance on insect-pollinated crops – continues to grow at an equally alarming pace.
