From the Health Sciences Institute:
Just imagine how many chickens it takes to produce 48 billion pounds of
chicken meat. That's the total produced by the U.S. chicken industry in
2006.
Now, just imagine what all those chickens leave behind.
Oklahoma state officials estimate that more than 345,000 tons of poultry
waste are produced yearly in and around the Illinois River watershed in
the eastern part of the state where chicken farming accounts for about
two percent of the U.S. poultry market.
The state's Attorney General recently asked a federal judge to make
several large chicken producers halt the pollution caused by an
unchecked tide of chicken waste.
For many years, farmers in this area (including conglomerates like Tyson
and Cargill) have used chicken waste as inexpensive fertilizer.
The result: A once pristine watershed has become a mess of dark sludge
that reeks of ammonia. And worse, the state notes that this waste
contains antibiotics, growth hormones, bacteria, and heavy metals.
That glimpse of chicken waste also gives us a sobering glimpse of what
we're actually ingesting when we eat factory-farmed meats.
To Your Good Health,
