Default Another Human Health Concern

Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Found in the Jungles of Mexico


Antibiotic resistance found in wild monkeys in Mexico!


Big Agro meat farming is of a distinct concern - when livestock is fed proplactively low doses of antibiotics to prevent protect against disease vs a vs the conditions they are raised in.


When will we start to learn we all are connected? and as the density on our planet grows - that chain of connection grows shorter n shorter.


Here in Ontario the price of beef is up 40% over 3yrs ago - and this one reflects that farmers of beef are electing to go out of business - sell their big very valuable property and retire to Florida or some such thing - as well as they do not want the farmers life for their children. Now this is not big corporations although we do have some - the bulk of our beef comes from family farms.


Not sure what the answer is - except I will continue to support my local organic and free range farmers - and will need to adjust my meat consumption to accomadate the rising prices.
