.... further to my
Sunday rant about caring for our earth, in the September issue of
Prevention Magazine there is an article noting a connection between the bacteria found in healthy soil and increased brain function. Researchers at the University of Bristol found mice who had inhaled the bacteria were better problem solvers. Perhaps they can figure a way to get a better job! A couple of pages earlier in the same issue there's an unpleasant prediction from the Harvard School of Public Health, warning to expect a 55% increase in pollen over the next fifty years, due to global warming. Interestingly, I'd also heard the increase in pollen is also the result of city planning. Apparently, many cities have decided to limit their
planting to only one gender of trees, to eliminate cross-pollination which, naturally, results in messy fruitfulness.
