What goes around.. comes around.

There is some idea 'out there' that the water that goes down your sink is 'waste', and therefore isn't to be considered important to your health. Although it was 'good' water when it left your tap, within a second it is now 'bad' water because it has been 'used'.

If ever there was a chance to think globally, this is it. Water
never leaves us. Water can't help but carry with it everything we add to it.

And today's waste water is tomorrow's breakfast. Well, perhaps not tomorrow's, but one thing is certain. We are all eating food contaminated with poisons we all added to the food chain and flushed down the sink. What goes around eventually but inevitably, comes around.

So this report from beautiful Noosa comes as little surprise but with a continuing sadness. Macadamia farmers on the River in Queensland are in the sights of scientists for overuse of chemicals and hormonal sprays, leading, it is thought, to the birth of two-headed river fish. Here's the report.
