Water Retention Increases Bioavailability

Great article that supports the basic principles of bioremediation- increased organic plant material in soil helps hold water.

Just a 1% organic matter increase over a wide area translates into millions of gallons of water retention ability.

Water retention and increased bioavailability in the soil will boost the #phytoextraction (intake + absorbing​ into plant (toxic removal)) by the process called #phytoremediation which can be accomplished by any number of plants.

ElectroHemp Organic Remediation: Using Trees to Clean Up Pollution Cristina Negri

Update Sep 2, 2017- My question:

 "Is this what happened to all the Milk they didn't use at Chernobyl?" 

•  

• Black Americans have been targeted for years -- from the very beginning and continue to be targeted and the 'Diabolical Ones' have done it with the help of the mentally challenged white segment of people who have helped them with their racist hate.
  We NEED to help each other in this country -- We NEED to WAKE UP and be UNITED in this country -- We NEED to UNDERSTAND -- That to the Puppet Masters -- We, the 99% -- ALL of the 99% -- Black, White, Hispanic, Jews, Gentiles, Native Americans, Gay, Straight, etc -- we are ALL Negros in their eyes and WE are ALL collateral damage and expendable as we are classified as 'bottom feeders'. Patricia Ameno

• The second video https://youtu.be/_qux8NEalzc shares info on nuclear-contaminated milk from Chernobyl. 

video talks about EPA visit to Chernobyl. She mentions: They couldn't use the milk from the local cows because the grass absorbs the nuclear contamination- a process called phytoremediation- plant absorption of the toxins.

Basically, the Cows ate the contaminated grass and it passed onto the milk.

ElectroHemp BioRad Remediation Pilot Study Discussion

-------
Discussions have begun about a Pilot Study Location for the ElectroHemp BioRad hazardous waste removal system. Stay Tuned for more details and see the announcement at the Hemp Environmental Forums Facebook page

#phytoremediation with #electrokinetics speeds up the toxic removal process. < this is nothing new. > But what is new is the organic disposal system for the toxic plants that eliminate Long Term Nuclear Waste Storage! Rememeber its our Tax Dollars that pay for this. Eliminating this part of the nuclear waste storage will save the USA Taxpayers multi-million dollars.

How Hemp Can Clean Up Radiation From Fukushima Nuclear Disaster

How Hemp Can Clean Up Radiation From Fukushima Nuclear Disaster: Hemp plants were shown to be effective in cleaning the soil around the site of Russia’s Chernobyl nuclear disaster and were even considered for use near Fukushima.

ElectroHemp Natural and Organic Hazardous Waste Treatment

“As a proven, valuable tool in the fight to repair human-inflicted damage to our soils and ecosystems, hemp could potentially benefit hundreds of thousands of sites across the globe—it is estimated that in the USA alone there are 30,000 sites requiring remediation. As is so often the case, US restrictions on hemp cultivation preclude any large-scale operations from being implemented, and the contaminated sites are largely left unremediated, through lack of both funding and interest on the part of the government.”
