The thing is that many toxins, now also PFSAs and microplastics, do not biodegrade but bioaccumulate. We have more of them each year, not less. #Bioaccumulation

After Rachel Carson’s courageous “Silent Spring” exposé back in 1962, surely by now we’ve learned not to release bioaccumulating toxins into ecosystems.
No, of course not.
“Results suggest biomagnification of PFAS from soil, mushrooms, and berries to bank voles, from mushrooms to ungulates and […]

The poisons then accumulate up the food chain, affecting wildlife by thinning the blood and reducing clotting, possibly leading to internal hemorrhaging and suppressed immune systems in pumas and bobcats. Learn more at: tinyurl.com/8eefyufr #rodenticides #bioaccumulation #conservation #felidae

Figure 2. (A–D) Copper concentrations (mg/kg dry matter) accumulated in plants, mealybug and newly emerged ladybird. T0= control, T1 = 100, T2 = 200, T3 = 400 and T4 = 800 mg/kg. Each value is the mean of three replicates ± S.E. Bars with different letters are significantly different at p < 0.05.
