Heather Cox Richardson Food Contamination 4/6/2025

Today, Dan Diamond and Hannah Natanson of the Washington Post reported that cuts to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have even Republican lawmakers and former Trump officials from his first term worried that the country is at risk of food-related disease outbreaks like the 2022 contamination of infant formula. On April 4, Heather Vogell of ProPublica reported that the Abbott Laboratories factory at the heart of the 2022 crisis continues to use the same unsanitary practices. Employees told her that workers still take shortcuts when cleaning and checking equipment for bacteria as supervisors try to increase production and retaliate against those who complain about problems.

The White House told Diamond and Natanson that cuts to the FDA and other health agencies will make them more “nimble and strategic.” Abbott Laboratories told Vogell that the workers’ assertions were “untrue or misleading” and said it “stands behind the quality and safety of all our products.”

La imagen muestra una vista panorámica de la ciudad de Tarragona, tomada desde la azotea de un edificio y muestra una gran extensión de la ciudad.
El cielo está nublado y tormentoso, con nubes oscuras y amenazantes que cubren gran parte del cielo. La parte superior está intervenida con spray verde y azul metalizado, lo que le da una atmósfera artificial y amenazante.

Plastics are seeping into farm fields, food and eventually human bodies. Can they be stopped?

https://apnews.com/article/climate-change-agriculture-microplastics-soil-plastic-health-food-34c578dcdcada4abf06b03866d66e607

Around the world, plastics are finding their way into farm fields. Some farmers say agricultural plastic, already a necessity for many crops, is becoming even more necessary as climate change fuels extreme weather.

Os comparto una imagen de Daniel Canogar, de la serie Vórtice de 2011, que me impactó mucho en su momento. Las copias se expusieron en gran formato.
Un buen ejemplo de la sociedad de consumo y el desperdicio. Me interesó de la imagen el tratamiento limpio, sin apenas dramatismo pero que simboliza tan bien la forma de vida que tenemos.

Contaminated soils from the 1979 oil spill in Bemidji, Minnesota.

Over 45 years later, these soils are still hydrophobic (repel water) resulting in a sparsely vegetated landscape. We're studying how industrial hemp can help remediate these soils.
