Paul Stamets is brilliant!

[David Gordon]

Your statement about toxic substance killing living organisms is true. However, what the video explains is that to different types of mushrooms diesel fuel is not toxic but a form of food. They feed on the the fuel and converted the toxins to substances that other life forms can not only tolerate but feed off of, and grow.

If i remember correctly, these deisel-eating oyster mushrooms concentrate the toxins they slowly neutralize, so should not be eaten, but let decompose and go another round of detox as they form a new generation and so on detoxing the soil the mushrooms return to further, taking some (how many) generations for all the hydrocarbons to be broken down -- anybody know?

I doubt that we'll ever see this in mainstream news sources. They do not report the truth nor anything that's beneficial for those of us who are at the mercy of the mega-corporations that almost own the world.

With out corporate personhood and liability caps, a catastrophe like the BP oil spill would likely never have occurred, and in such an instance BP would be rapidly liquidated. With out bankruptcy privilege, they couldn't defer externalities to tax-payers. If domestic hemp production were legal, petroleum- fuel might have lost its dominance and efficacious bio-fuels would gradually replace it.

One can only speculate the motives of the federal government in choosing not to use this effective bio-remediation strategy. Perhaps such is in the interests of the cancer establishment, or is just total incompetency. Whatever the motives, government and its' pet corporations are destroying the earth.

Now if only our government would get they're head out of they're ass and apply this to the oil spill in the gulf.
