Many finite resources in our culture — means all the more reason to look for alternatives. Peat is a next level resource because of how much good it does when left in place, and the multiple functions that are lost when it’s harvested — water storage, biodiversity, carbon storage, and more
from the explosion of a mega sized star that could fuse to phosphorus and atomic numbers beyond phosphorus, but was unstable due to it’s massive size and explode to form a supernova.
Phosphorus is finite in our entire solar system. The Sun is not a big enough star to fuse up to an element of the atomic number of phosphorus. The phosphorus in our solar system is from the origin of our solar system. The phosphorus got into the highly compressed cloud of hydrogen and particles,
There is a sustainability movement that promotes secondary use of finite materials that we have no choice but to use, like Rock Phosphate. Some plant material end up rich in phosphate, the secondary use people compost that plant material to make fertilizer and avoid using rock phosphate.
This!!
This is Bay Area marshlands where Silicon Valley billionaires want to build a 400,000 home walkable city! It's gonna wreck the peat we still have
Building on peat? That's a swampy foundation for utopia.
They drain & remove it
I would have thought we knew better by now! Is this moving forward?
