Brazil’s toxic pesticides ‘affecting people all over the world’ through agricultural exports
Brazil’s embrace of highly toxic pesticides – the government has approved 262 so far this year and loosened regulations on what is considered “extremely toxic” – is affecting people far outside its borders, an expert tells RT.
“EU-banned pesticide[s are] being manufactured in the EU, and then coming back to citizens in the EU, in the food we eat,” environmental journalist and founding member of the Green Economic Institute think tank Oliver Tickell told RT, explaining that as one of the largest soy exporters in the world, Brazil supplies a significant quantity of the feed that cattle and other livestock worldwide consume. European consumers tucking into a juicy steak have no idea that the creature they’re eating might have been nourished on soy sprayed with highly toxic pesticides.
“This is not just a problem for Brazil and Brazilian people and people exposed in the countryside to these pesticides and consumers and farmers,” Tickell warned. “It is actually affecting people all over the world through Brazil’s agricultural exports.”
ANVISA, the Brazilian public health regulatory agency, relaxed pesticide regulations last week so that only those chemicals with lethal potential can be classified as “extremely toxic,” triggering a massive backlash from environmental groups, human rights organizations, and food safety advocates. The fervently pro-business government of President Jair Bolsonaro has already approved 262 pesticides this year, 82 of which are classed as “extremely toxic,” as he follows through on campaign promises to demolish environmental regulations and open up protected rainforest lands to mining and agriculture.
Dozens of pesticides banned or strictly regulated in the EU, including paraquat and chlorpyrifos, were already permitted for use in Brazil before Bolsonaro took power, and the country uses approximately 400,000 tons of pesticides per year, according to Human Rights Watch. While Agriculture Minister Tereza Cristina has flatly denied Brazil uses any more pesticides than any other country, attributing such allegations to “data manipulation” and accusing critics of “terrorism,” EcoWatch claims the country consumes more pesticides per capita than any other nation.

Geez- where'd the fucking rain-forests go ?
Cambridge’s new record tells us very little about “climate change”, but an awful lot about the Urban Heat Island Effect, or UHI.
Just to recap, the Botanical Gardens are situated in the middle of the city of Cambridge, which at the last count had a population of 123,000. Furthermore, the winds on the day in question were from the south east, meaning that the air reaching the Gardens had blown right across a heavily built up area.
The claimed new record is only 0.2C higher than the previous one for Faversham, yet the latter is little more than a village. The difference in UHI between the two is certainly likely to be much more than 0.2C.
We might also consider that there is a second official Met Office site in Cambridge, at the National Institute of Agricultural Botany (NIAB). This, as can be seen below, is away from the city, although gradually being encroached upon by developments.
Flood devastation in England
Yorkshire Dales flash flooding: Roads shut and bridge collapses
A bridge collapsed as flash flooding hit part of North Yorkshire when a month's rain fell in four hours.
The region is braced for more rainfall as the Met Office has issued a yellow warning for rain across much of the north of England.
Some roads remain shut and rail passengers faced disruption after a landslip between Carlisle and Skipton.
The fire station in Leyburn flooded as crews were out answering emergencies.
The fire service had to pump out some new homes in the town after the water hit, some of the residents moved in just two months ago.

Whaley Bridge dam collapse: Town evacuated over Toddbrook Reservoir fears
Thousands of people are being evacuated from a town because part of a reservoir wall has collapsed in floods.
Engineers are pumping water from Toddbrook Reservoir but if it bursts it could swamp Whaley Bridge in Derbyshire.
Police have told the town's 6,500 residents to gather at a local school, taking pets and medication with them.
A severe flood warning, which means a threat to life, has been issued for the River Goyt, below the reservoir.

Hotter, wetter, sunnier: UK's 10 warmest years have all occurred since 2002
Met Office’s annual report on state of UK climate also says snowy days have become rarer
Electric fans could soon be as indispensable in British weather as umbrellas: a report has revealed the UK is becoming hotter and wetter, while snow days have become rarer.
The annual report into the state of the UK’s climate, the fifth of its kind, has been released by the Met Office and comes just days after meteorologists confirmed that Cambridge recently set a new record for the highest temperature ever recorded in the UK.

Against the warnings of the English Environment Agency MILLIONS of homes are built on designated flood plains. That's how capitalism fucks the world and everybody in it.
Man-made global warming, maggot, you dozy old tosser.
You frequently hear of dams collapsing in third world countries due to unprecedented rains. In England ? Not so much.
Obviously, you can't even enjoy summer. What a miserable sot you are.
Average mean temperatures for July ended up at 17.5C, meaning that last month was an unremarkable 45th warmest since 1660, tying with years like 1847, 1870 and 1923. It was also 1.3C cooler than July 1783.
This is known as CLIMATE CHANGE.
Taking both June and July together, this year’s ranking drops even further, to 82nd, in a tie with 1706 and 1878.
Top ranking goes to 1976, followed by 2006 and 1826
