Late lessons from early warnings
Governments are failing to properly regulate nanotechnology according to a hard-hitting new report released by the European Environment Agency (EEA). Despite early warnings of the damage some nanomaterials could cause, governments are still reacting too slowly to...More evidence of nanomaterial toxicity
In the past few months a number of studies have emerged demonstrating the potential for nanomaterials to cause harm to human health and the environment. New research published in Toxicology Sciences this August found that inhaling tiny fibres made by the...Government’s Nanotech and Energy “Dialogue” one-sided
Friends of the Earth have raised concerns that a Government sponsored “dialogue” on nanotechnology and energy to be held in Brisbane today, risks only telling one side of the story. Five nanotechnology scientists have been invited to speak, yet experts on the...New study shows nano-silver can affect sewage treatment works
A new study shows that silver nanoparticles have the potential to inhibit nitrifying bacteria in wastewater treatment works. Nitrifying bacteria play an important role in breaking down sewage. The study raises further concern about the widespread use of nano-silver in...Crazytech
Stupid technologies we don't need.....
And that could destroy life on Earth.
