Good reference. Thanks.

This practise, and one that they made up a newspeak Orwellian word for, "land-farming", the spreading of industrial waste directly on farm fields or pasture lands or woodlands, make me sick.

In economic terms, this is called externalization. The true cost of the practise is no longer borne by the producer of the toxic waste. It is distributed amongst all people, or perhaps certain people, and the profits remain in a few pockets. I presume legislators get a good chunk of the profit, but private individuals keep the big bucks.

People need to get offended. They need to be informed. To speak out. I'm amazed e.g. the Sierra Club hasn't been all over this one in the courts.
