Polluted Inheritance, already topical when I read it, is now even more topical due to the recent Havelock North water contamination case - New Zealand's own mini-Flint, though fortunately of shorter duration. Environmental scientist Mike Joy has been sounding the alarm about the disastrous effects of the uncontrolled expansion of industrial-scale dairy farming on New Zealand's rivers for some time now, and been scorned and criticised by the Government for daring to raise these issues. Now, after the E. coli contamination case in Havelock North, all New Zealanders should pay close attention to what Mike Joy has to say. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"Evidence presented here by ecologist Mike Joy demonstrates that intensive dairy farming has degraded our freshwater rivers, streams and lakes to such a degree that we face an environmental crisis. This perilous situation, he argues, has arisen primarily through governmental policy that prioritises short-term economic growth over long-term environmental sustainability"--Publisher information.
