A major incident is occurring on the Ohio RiverOver two dozen barges have broken loose of their moorings on the Ohio River and floated downstream‚ causing local authorities to shut down multiple bridges‚ including the McKees Rocks Bridge in Pittsburgh‚ Pennsylvania. There is widespread traffic disruption in the area.Its reported that 23 of the barges were loaded and three were empty. Six barges are claimed to have run up against the Emsworth dam and extensive damage has been reported at Peggys Harbor in Pittsburgh.#UPDATE: Footage shows approximately 6-7 barges jammed up against the Emsworth Dam‚ with more expected on the way. Multiple bridges have been shut down‚ causing traffic disruptions. Additionally‚ more barges are on the loose after breaking free crews are watching the situation pic.twitter.com/k2aBOcfUYi R A W S A L E R T S (@rawsalerts) April 13‚ 2024The causes of the incident are unclear at this early stage.How do barges break loose? What kind of rope are they using? asked one Twitter user.Our fan-favorite Turbo Force Plus is now 40% off! See for yourself the delicious one-of-a-kind energy boost infowarriors CRAVE!Users on Twitter have pointed to previous incidents in which barges have broken free on rivers in the area. In January 2019‚ 12 barges broke loose on the Mon River‚ causing bridges to be closed in the Pittsburgh area.The Pittsburgh area has experienced flooding in recent weeks‚ but some doubted whether the flooding was so abnormal as to cause 26 barges to break free all at once.This feels planned and coordinated. When will be told the truth about what is truly going on in our country? Are we in a hidden war? tweeted Right Angle News Network.A little over two weeks ago‚ a container ship‚ the MV Dali‚ struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore harbour‚ destroying the bridge. Six people‚ from a maintenance crew‚ are believed to have died. It has already been estimated that reconstruction of the bridge may cost $400 million and take seven years to complete.The collapse of the Key Bridge has halted almost all passenger and cargo shipping to the Port of Baltimore‚ one of the East Coasts most important ports. The possibility of deliberate sabotage has been suggested.Breaking! New Revelations In FBI/CIA Plan To Destroy Alex Jones Released

There';s far more plastic below the surface of the seas and oceans than on itA shocking new study from researchers in Australia and Canada suggests that there could be 11 million tonnes of plastic on the ocean floor‚ up to 100 times the amount visible on the surface.This study is the first ever estimate of exactly how much plastic there is at the bottom of the ocean. Generally‚ research has focused on floating plastic‚ accumulating on the surface in great agglomerations like the famous Great Pacific Garbage Patch‚ which is twice the size of Texas‚ or washing up on beaches.Its now clear that ongoing efforts to rid the seas and oceans of plastic waste will be an even more complicated‚ and more costly endeavor than previously thought.Over 9000 kg removed from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch in our 93rd plastic extraction: pic.twitter.com/Bgvp0TaycG The Ocean Cleanup (@TheOceanCleanup) April 8‚ 2024We know that millions of tonnes of plastic waste enter our oceans every year but what we didnt know is how much of this pollution ends up on our ocean floor‚ noted one of the studys principal researchers in a press statement.Introducing Next Level Foundational Energy from Dr. Jones Naturals starting at 30% off! This cutting-edge dietary supplement is designed to elevate your energy levels and support your overall well-being.We discovered that the ocean floor has become a resting place‚ or reservoir‚ for most plastic pollution‚ with between 3 to 11 million tonnes of plastic estimated to be sinking to the ocean floor.While there has been a previous estimate ofmicroplasticson the seafloor‚ this research looks at larger items‚ from nets and cups to plastic bags and everything in between.Researchers used two complicated predictive models to estimate the amounts of large items of plastic that reach the seafloor. One model used data taken from remote-operated vehicles‚ while the other used data taken from trawls of the ocean floor.The results from the remote-operated vehicles showed that significant amounts of plastic cluster on the ocean floor near continents. Just under half (46%) of the plastic mass predicted using the models resides above 200 m depth. Deeper areas of the ocean‚ ranging between 200 and 11‚000 meters‚ contain the remaining 54% of the predicted plastic mass.The researchers believe the new research‚ by allowing us to see exactly where plastic accumulates‚ will help future attempts to reduce plastic pollution in the oceans.There has been growing alarm in recent years about levels of plastic pollution‚ and in particular the effects of microplastic pollution.More than nine billion tons of plastic are estimated to have been produced between 1950 and 2017‚ with over half of that total having been produced since 2004. The vast majority of plastic ends up in the environment‚ where it breaks down‚ through weathering‚ exposure to UV light and organisms of all kinds‚ into smaller and smaller piecesmicroplastics and even smaller nanoplastics. Secondary microplastics they start off big and end up small‚ but theres a whole class of primary microplastics which are small by design‚ like so-called microbeads used in cosmetics.Within our homes‚ microplastics are mainly produced when synthetic fibres from clothes‚ furnishings and carpets are shed. They accumulate in large quantities in dust and float around in the air‚ which we then inhale.Microplastics have been found‚ variously‚ in mist‚ rainfall and snow. They are known to circulate on the wind. They have also been found in every human and animal tissue‚ from gut and lung tissue to the eyes‚ liver‚ brain‚ womb and placenta.An important new microplastic study suggests‚ for the very first time‚ that women with higher levels of microplastics in the villous tissues of the womb (i.e. the surface of the placenta) are more likely to suffer unexplained recurrent miscarriages. pic.twitter.com/iLZjdXN2lZ RAW EGG NATIONALIST (@Babygravy9) March 10‚ 2024Studies are linking exposure to microplastics to virtually every one of the prevailing chronic diseases of modernity‚ from autism and alzheimers to Crohns disease and cancer.If you want to protect yourself and your family against exposure to microplastics‚ read our primer‚ The Microplastic Menace now.Breaking!

Mexican territory is the major thoroughfare for migrants of the world to traipse through and invade the United StatesMexico is in the midst ofa presidential election. Voting is scheduled for June 2‚ with the winner taking office October 1.The three candidates are frontrunner Claudia Sheinbaum‚ second-place challenger Xochitl Galvez‚ and male candidate Jorge Alvarez Maynez‚ in a distant third in single digits.On April 7‚ the first general election debate was held.The candidatesmade all sorts of promiseswhich would require plenty of government spending‚ with almost no mention of wealth creation. They pledged allegiance to the LGBTQXYZ agenda‚ which is strong in Mexico.And‚ the candidates discussed immigration.Our fan-favorite Turbo Force Plus is now 40% off! See for yourself the delicious one-of-a-kind energy boost infowarriors CRAVE!Thats of interest to us‚ Mexican territory being the major thoroughfare for the migrants of the world to traipse through and invade the United States.A moderator asked this question of candidate Xochitl Galvez (all translations mine):Many migrants literally risk their lives on the way through Mexico What will be the focus of your government to protect these migrants who are in transit through our country? In case you win‚ what migratory policies would your government have?Xochitls response:As a senator‚ I presented two bills so that once they are in Mexico these migrants would not be bothered nor attacked‚ that they would have conditions of full respect to their human rights‚ and what happened in that migratory station[which burned‚killing dozens of migrants]would not happen. We have to have a secure southern border. I think that the migrants can be an opportunity for economic growth for Mexico‚ not a problem.Galvez said she visited shelters in Tijuana on the border and bemoaned thatthe migrants live in really lamentable conditions.She concluded with this confusing statement:I am going to work so that they have a quality during the time they are in Mexico.Huh? A quality what? Quality time?Anyway‚ her entire statement is a mishmash‚ just like Mexicos migratory policy.Is she going to keep anybody out of Mexico?The other two candidates were asked what they would do.Claudia Sheinbaum jumped on the root causes argument‚ which her benefactor‚ current Presidente AMLO‚ promoted in his recent60 Minutes interview.Sheinbaums declaration:Now‚ the most important thing is that migration is not going to decrease if the causes are not attended to‚ and the causes of migration are essentially the poverty‚ particularly in Central America and in other countries where the migration originates. And this is the essential proposal we are making and this is the debate‚ justly‚ with the United States. They [Americans] should dedicate a percentage of what they dedicate today to armaments to help the countries and decrease migration. That is the most humane thing that can be done.Did you catch that‚ Mr. and Mrs. U.S. Taxpayer? The solution is for you to pump billions more dollars into Latin America.Jorge Alvarez Maynez‚ the male candidate‚ began his answer as follows:To have moral authority in the migratory issue‚ in our defense of Mexicans who live in the United States‚ I am a Zacatecan[from state of Zacatecas]and we have as many Zacatecans in the U.S. as in Mexico.Then he launched into an anti-Trump rant:We are a binational society‚ but defend ourselves from the misogynist‚ discriminatory‚ racist and xenophobic speeches of Donald Trump which we are going to see in the [U.S.] campaign and which we have to have the courage to confront‚ to defend the migrant persons in the United States‚ we have to have the moral authority and what we have done in the southern border is inhumane. The militarization has not made our border more secure‚ but it has made it more cruel. Thats why we need to change the model to a model of human rights which accompanies at every stage the migrant persons. To migrate is not a crime‚ to migrate is a decision that human beings make.Jorges solution is for Mexico to accompany these invaders in every step of their trek to the United States.None of these candidates have a coherent migration policy.When did Mexican citizens ask for their country to become a flophouse for the hordes invading the United States?Penn Station was slammed by hundreds of illegal aliens arriving to New York City this week.
