Soils affect the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, our health and the health of all organisms on the planet.
(...) Pollution in soil can be invisible to the naked eye, but it can affect our food and water resources and even the air we breathe. One of those hidden contaminants is often fertilizer. (...) But new research suggests the soil - if you dig deep enough - is a valuable commodity. The topsoil of New York City is famously toxic.

and transport as well as the correct use of
PPE and decontamination procedures
• How to recognize objective indicators of
exposure to a synthetic opioid (opioid toxic-
ity), including in canines
• How to administer an opioid antagonist
such as naloxone
• How to manage personal safety when
administering first aid or primary medical
care (e.g., assisted breathing/rescue
breathing) in cases of acute opioid exposure
and overdose
Ongoing regular training in relation to illegal
drugs, including new and emerging synthetic
drugs, as well as synthetic opioids, is important
for ensuring that officers remain familiar with
evolving drug trends and any associated safety
or exposure risks.
(...) Example 4: Search of a confined space where a synthetic opioid is known or suspected to be
present including large concealments in shipping containers, confined spaces in vessels (such
as bulk heads or deep voids), aircraft or truck-trailer units.
WARNING

manage a threat or hazard unless there is sufficient evidence that the lower
level is suitable.

Sometimes you hear someone say "He is just a volunteer, I wonder why he is giving himself this hard time." I come from a deep place of humility and respect, but such statements are demoralizing, stigmatizing, and convey a perception of unimportance.

Biodiversity plays a fundamental role in sustaining life as we know it; from cleaning the air we breathe and regulating our climate, to fertilising the soil that grows our food. (...) From economics, to natural sciences, law and the arts, Earth Jurisprudence invites deep transformation from a human-centered to an Earth-centered paradigm by connecting our rational concern for biodiversity loss with responsibility for protecting our living planet.
