    After years of insisting it wasn't feasible, the world's biggest hog producer has agreed to change how it handles manure on more than 1,000 U.S. farms.https://n.pr/2JmdimG

        Interesting. Hurricane moves up NC. Hundreds of pig farms flooded sending manure filled water across NC because, well, who cares, right? The only way that water will be dangerous is if we have a flood due to a hurricane. *sigh. So reactive. 🤨🙄.

        do you live next to a hog farm? those lagoons pose a threat to public health, even without flooding.

        I'm done with beef and pork for two reasons: factory farming is killing the planet, and those getting rich off the planet's death are denying it's happening and hastening its demise by spending their riches to lie to citizens and increase destruction speed.
