Have you been thinking about living more sustainable or off the grid? Or are building a new home and would like to incorporate more environmentally friendly features. We can help design and organise council approval for all your water usage. We love to work with our clients to reuse, reduce and prevent environmental harm as well as prevent unnecessary cost. We are proud to have designed many gravity fed reedbed systems, worm compost systems and compost toilets that irrigates either regrowth native bushland or orchards that are approved by the local council. Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions or would like to talk waste water options with us. We work together with the design features of your new or existing home 🏠 z

Excellent article and research on why synthetic N fertiliser is killing soils and adding to climate chaos. Good news is, we can change this!
"Synthetic nitrogen use, they argue, creates a kind of treadmill effect. As organic matter dissipates, soil’s ability to store organic nitrogen declines. A large amount of nitrogen then leaches away, fouling ground water in the form of nitrates, and entering the atmosphere as nitrous oxide (N2O), a greenhouse gas with some 300 times the heat-trapping power of carbon dioxide. In turn, with its ability to store organic nitrogen compromised, only one thing can help heavily fertilized farmland keep cranking out monster yields: more additions of synthetic N."

There are all types of contaminated land,
lucky we don’t have to deal with this particular type.

It’s touted as Europe’s most beautiful island - but the people of Sardinia are getting sick and dying mysteriously. Fingers are pointing at secret bomb tests and war games by the world’s armies, as Emma Alberici reports.

It is my believe that environmental health should play a way bigger role in our society. I believe environmental health should be at the forefront of everyone’s agenda. Without a healthy environment we cease to exist. Plastic food for thought and for excretion 😂

There’s a frightening lack of research about plastic’s effects on human health.
