He say mycoremediation barely works and then literally describes mycoremediation. "so maybe just mix in some substrate, turn the soil and let nature do the rest"
>Regarding mycofiltration, doesn't really work and even if it did, wouldn't take long for the mycelium to go anarobic and die.
Then a sentence later.
>I have no idea if this works.
You know why that is? Because he hasn't done it.
>medicinal mushrooms shouldn't be sold as medicine until they are proven to work
They do work. Very well. 1000s of years of human history and 1000s of clinical trials have proven it. I had never heard of Alen Rockefeller
before now, but with that one statement makes me think he's either retarded or disingenuous in his opinion.
About half the mycelial mass will be released as co2.* With oysters anyway. The rest will ideally become healthy top soil for plants that off set the co2. They also remediate toxic chemicals within the house. In the landfill, all that matter is locked away from the flow of matter and energy that make for a healthy world. We should really only be using anaerobic landfills for plastics and things that need a lack of oxygen to be broken down. Even then, large scale bioreactors might be more effective and take up less land. I bet old mines would work great for that.
I have some bad news for you. You do with every breath.
>They're known carcinogens
Depends on the mushroom. Many are actually anti cancer, but I'm going to to assume you meant breathing the spores. It's only a concern if you're in an enclosed space. Like a fruiting room full of oyster mushrooms.
>they could establish a latent infection. This is what fungi do.
Having a fungal infection isn't necessarily bad thing. YOU have a fungal community in and on you right now. They're protecting you even as you read this. It's been shown that inculating trees with chaga mushrooms can prevent infections from other more aggressive parasites and blights.
Fungi are your friends.
Oyster mushrooms aren't going to infect you. If anyone would, I'd put my money on cordyceps. And those aren't used for mycorestoration.
>We're already all encountering this on a day to day basis at a background level. No reason to increase exposure.
Gonna have to disagree. Humans are responsible for completely fucking the mycelial mass of earth. We knocked a big cog out of the carbon cycle through mass development of the land, mass use of pesticides, fungicides, and fertilizers. Pavement everywhere. And we absolutely need to fix it. Good news for you though, people are working on sporeless strains of fungi used in mycorestoration. Soon your worries will be irrelevant.
Just smash it if you see it. Or someone suggested super glue. If we all actively destroy these devices, it'll eventually not be worth it to replace them.
The risk is the countless little bits of info being gathered by all this tech falling into the hands of the next genocidal despot. I wonder which metric they'll base their cleansing around?
You assume she WANTS to work for a shitty corporation. Now, she can work for herself, do volunteer work that can lead to MEANINGFUL employment, or just go out and live her life and see what she falls into. Fuck ALL major corporations. We all need to do our part to wipe these inhumane mosters from the earth. Don't buy from them. Don't work for them. And mock and bully everyone who does, as the traitors to humanity they are.
And your entire firing squad analogy doesn't work here. She's not tired up waiting to die. She's free to do whatever.
