A new report found that gaps in environmental regulations enabled 89 million gallons of landfill leachate, chemically-laced water runoff, to be dumped into the Mohawk and Hudson rivers annually from 2019 to 2023. Many communities obtain their drinking water from these rivers. Leachate is created as water such as rain or snow melt percolates through landfills, becoming toxic after picking up chemicals from consumer, construction and industrial waste.

Vermont's landfill operator and state regulators are figuring out what comes next after a plan to remove toxic chemicals from landfill runoff went awry.

Max ist genervt von all dem Plastikmüll in seinem Viertel. Mit Forschenden untersucht er, wie der Müll auf die Umgebung einwirkt. Und mit einer Müllsammelaktion soll sein Kiez wieder sauber werden. Doch bringt das was?
Despite public perception, modern landfills are not equivalent to dumps of the past.

Is worm tea the same as leachate? What is leachate? Is it even GOOD to have in a worm composting system? All of these questions answer and more in today's show. 10% Off an Urban Worm Bag By Clicking This Link Steve is the founder of the Urban Worm Company and makes the Urban Worm Bag, which is my favorite worm composting system. It's a flow-through system instead of a bin style design, which makes it less smelly, messy, and quite efficient at turning food waste into fertilizer.
