Xiluva party leader takes water samples from Tshwane townships to access quality by Radio Islam
In this episode, Ashurst's Global Sustainability/ESG Partner Anna-Marie Slot is joined by James Harayda, skipper and team principal at the Gentoo Sailing team. James is the youngest skipper currently entered in the next Vendee Globe race, and in November, 2024 will become the youngest competitor to embark from France on this 25,000 nautical mile solo nonstop round the world yacht race. Not only is James going to skippering throughout this competition but also taking water samples to collect data for scientific research to help provide a greater understanding of what's happening with our waters and help give scientists fundamentals, to decide what actions we really need to take, the combat the adverse impacts of humans. James and Anna-Marie discuss what sustainability means to him as a sailor, the importance of learning more about the ocean for sustainability purposes and what needs to happen around ocean stewardship. Ashurst are delighted to have partnered with Gentoo Sailing Team whose innovative vision and sustainability ambitions reflect our own.

News Release For Immediate Release: April 27, 2020 For More Information: David Bond (dbond@bennington.edu) 802 375 3013 Judith Enck (JudithAEnck@gmail.com) 518 605 1770 test results posted: Bennington.edu/Pfoa First in the Nation Testing Reveals Toxic Contamination in Soil and Water Near Norlite Incinerator Data Indicates That Incineration Does not Destroy PFAS Chemicals and Should Be Halted New soil and water testing near the Norlite incinerator in Cohoes New York, which has been burning toxic firefighting foam, provides strong indication that incineration of AFFF at Norlite is not effective at breaking down PFAS compounds. Far from destroying these toxins, the Norlite facility appears to be emitting them into the surrounding communities. In February 2020, environmentalists informed the public and local elected officials that the Norlite hazardous waste incinerator burned large quantities of toxic firefighting foam, known as Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF) in 2018 and 2019. The fire suppressing foam contains a hodgepodge of per- and poly- fluoroalkyl (PFAS) chemicals, a class of highly persistent chemicals strongly linked to a host of cancers, liver disease, auto immune deficiencies and infertility. New York State Dept. of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has known Norlite was burning AFFF since 2018 yet did not disclose this to the public. Moreover, DEC has allowed the burning of AFFF despite there being no evidence that incineration destroys these forever chemicals, a lack of any stack testing to determine if PFAS compounds are being emitted at Norlite, and technical guidance from the EPA that incineration may not be an effective method of destroying AFFF. On March 3, 2020, a team of Bennington College professors and students took soil and surface water samples from relatively undisturbed sites in neighborhoods around the Norlite plant in Cohoes, NY. The samples were sent to EuroFins, a commercial laboratory that analyzed them for a wide array of perflouinated compounds (PFAS). EuroFins also conducted a TOP Assay analysis on one water sample and one soil sample. The results of this preliminary research suggest the burning of AFFF at Norlite is not destroying these dangerous chemicals so much as redistributing them into nearby poor and working class neighborhoods. (The full results can be found at: www.bennington.edu/PFOA) Major findings of the study include: · Elevated levels of PFAS compounds were detected in the soil and water near the Norlite facility. These levels decline with distance from the incinerator. · The PFAS compounds that make-up of AFFF, including PFOS, are higher around the plant then what is considered a background level in our region. · The pattern of PFAS contamination in the soil and water around Norlite bears strong resemblance to sites of known AFFF contamination, such as air force bases and firefighting training centers. Contamination at both Norlite and these legacy AFFF sites is marked by the prevalence of sulfonic and butanoic varieties of PFAS. This pattern differs from composition of PFAS contamination elsewhere in the region. · AFFF contains approximately 250 different perflourinated compounds. There are only laboratory standards available for 50 of those compounds. Results from the TOP Assay analysis of soil and water near Norlite found evidence of significantly more PFAS compounds then we know how to detect. This finding is typical of sites with AFFF contamination. Together, these findings suggest incineration of AFFF at Norlite is not destroying toxic PFAS compounds. More research is needed to better understand the local and regional fallout of PFAS from the Norlite hazardous waste incinerator. Until there is clear evidence that proper incineration destroys PFAS toxins, AFFF should not be burned.

Kriben Govender (Honours Degree in Food Science and Technology) and James Shadrach (Honours Degree in Psychology) have a groundbreaking discussion with Dr Gabor Somlyai on the role that the hydrogen isotope, deuterium plays in the growth of cancer cells and using deuterium depleted water as a cancer treatment. We also discuss using deuterium depleted water as a cancer prevention strategy and other benefits like improved gut health and athletic performance. Bio: Dr Gábor Somlyai graduated as a biologist from the University of Szeged in 1982. Between 1982 and 1990 he worked for the Department of Plant Pathology, Plant Protection Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. He had a scholarship from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences while studying for his PhD and defended his thesis in molecular biology in 1988. Dr Somlyai spent six months at the Georg-August University in Göttingen on a DFG scholarship after receiving his PhD. He followed that with a postdoctoral fellowship in the field of genetic engineering and gene mapping at the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri. In the wake of the Hungarian, Nobel-prize winning scientist Albert Szent-Györgyi – who said that the true cause of cancer should be looked for at the sub-molecular level – Gábor began his examining the biological importance of naturally occurring deuterium as a senior research fellow at the Hungarian Institute of Oncology in 1990. In 1993 Gabor established HYD Ltd. for Research and Development (now HYD LLC. for Cancer Research and Drug Development) to carry out cancer research and drug development based on the proprietary procedure called deuterium depletion. Dr Somlyai served as the scientific director of HYD Ltd. between 1993 and 1997 before becoming the CEO of the company. In 2012 he also began serving as the General Director of HYD’s parent company, HYD Pharma Inc. His book, Defeating Cancer!, was published in Hungary in 2000. It has since been published in Romania, Japan, China, South-Korea and the U.S.A. Gábor is a holder of numerous international patents, an author of more than 40 scientific publications, and is a highly sought-after speaker at international conferences.

A Chemical Used in Weapons Is Showing Up in Water Samples. That story and more on H2O Radio’s weekly news report about water. The tragic mudslides that occurred in Southern California last week follow a long history. Los Angeles may be the next to sue oil giants for global warming following a lawsuit brought by New York City. A substance that was developed by the U.S. during the Second World War—and is still used today—is being carried by winds during weapons testing and settling in soils. Water has been found on Mars and may support future missions for drinking, growing crops, or making hydrogen for fuel. The UK has announced plans to eradicate “avoidable plastic waste” within 25 years. China, which used to accept everyone's recycling, has decided it's over being the “world’s garbage dump.”
