phosphogypsum eh?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphogypsum

humans are really just fucking up the planet..
if there truly is any alien specie observing us, or flying by, there sure as shit ain't gonna think "intelligent" life is here..
if I were an alien i'd just nuke the species and start over.
or simply KEEP on flying by looking for other intelligent life, somewhere else

This is an older story but along the same lines:

Maybe it's cases like Dupont's that prompted Mosaic to report their spill and offer free well water testing to people in the area.

Florida's ground water is pretty much one big well from how I understand it. In other areas, underground water is pumped, treated and put back in. Los Angeles area has some plants from the cold war that contaminated ground water and it's taken years of water treatment to remove the solvent that was in their water. But, low level radiation? That's going to be hard to treat. It will be something to watch and see what the mitigation response will be.

What if we are the aliens or at least their experiment? Homo-sapiens just happened to be more civilized than the neanderthal, denisovan, and cro magnon. The rest of the species were eradicated, possibly during the great flood! Yes, my idea of a bad joke I guess...

These guys went to the moon and they look like they saw a ghost, not happy at all?!? WTF, where is the champagne? What do you imagine that they saw, there is no excitement about them?

I live close to a lake and the landscaping store wanted to know exactly how I was going to use the rock phosphate because they didnt want it getting into the lake water. Fuck, I live like 5 miles away from it. So, they must be serious about phosphate in the water! They didnt want to sell me the rock P.

The reason the rest were wiped out is because we are murderous marauders the likes never before seen on earth, we kill everything even each other........we will be the last.

the problem is overpopulation, given the room, humans don't tend to cause as much trouble, but with anything, the added complexity and added entropy of a structured OVERpopulated environment, and that's where things breakdown, have problems, and we end up cannibalizing our own environment, populous, water sources, air sources, ect, ect.
the earth can only really support about 4-5 billion people
past that?
well?
Just look around and see what we are doing.
chopping trees down and covering the earth with asphalt and cement...sucking all the hydrocarbon out of the earth as we can, whilst blasting much of it into the groundwater in the process.. and the rest of it into the air after we burn it and add co2 into the air also.
polluting everything we see, with chemicals, radioactivity, natural pollution (sewage, like India, etc)
the air, the ground, the water, even the area in space, around the earth is RIDDLED with space-garbage...


It's rather scary, and people look the other way, and continue to do so.
when it'd dire we do something, but the problem is, the "something" we must do, is HALF the damn earth's populous.
so that's kinda a hard sell, no?

Actually, we could feed all the people we have if we just went about differently - on less surface area.
The trouble with that is, it would put aaaall those big corps out of business, hell, it would completely change our economic systems, power structures, lifestyles...
and it would require people who have systematically been put to sleep (with shocking success) to wake up.

I used to believe it possible haha
Currently I've kind of settled for the inevitability of some sort of catastrophe to really change things around (yeah, probably populace decimation involved there too).

But we keep on trying anyways, every little step we take is invaluable! :)

The US has about 5% of the world's population but consumes 25% of its resources. While its true that there are too many people on earth given what is happening, there are other variables in play. Such as how US consumers consume. It's hard to blame that polluted water flowing down a sinkhole on people in India. What I want to know is why that company was operating with so much waste lying around. Also, given this was a normal practice, how many other sites pose similar risk to Florida's water supply. We don't know what we've got till it's gone. This is why regulators are needed.

That story about the lake was interesting. It sounds awful but without the back story I would dismiss it.
