#Pollution at #MaracaiboLake
"#LakeMaracaibo in the state of #Zulia is one of the most important bodies of water in the western region of Venezuela. This lake was also the site of one of the worst environmental catastrophes in Venezuela's history: the #BarrosoII blowout in 1922; an oil well that began spewing huge quantities of oil for 9 days, spilling around 900,000 barrels in the area. This oil disaster, paradoxically, became a milestone for the abundance of the oil industry in the country.
"Erick Camargo indicates that oil spills generated by the lack of maintenance of the complex network of oil infrastructure continue to be a constant and are the main cause of contamination in the lake. However, he also indicates that the use of #agrochemicals on nearby crops and the discharge of #sewage worsen the situation.
"A 2022 scientific paper reveals the presence of multiple #toxic elements in surface sediments in different parts of the lake. This constitutes a high risk for the flora and fauna of the region, as well as for the health of the human communities living in the areas where the samples were taken. Another study in 2007 revealed the presence of #ToxicMetals in part of the subway aquifers connected to the lake basin; the samples taken had values well above the limits allowed for #DrinkingWater according to national and international regulations."

Pollution in Venezuela's Lake Maracaibo threatens life in one of the world's oldest lakes
The fishermen of Lake Maracaibo say they face their worst nightmare everyday as fish stocks decline and pollution degrades the health of this great freshwater lake, one of the oldest — and largest — in the world. Lake Maracaibo, which once was at the heart of Venezuela’s oil boom, has turned into a polluted wasteland, according to environmentalists. The pollution of the lake, located about 600 kilometers west of Caracas, is the result of decades of excessive oil exploitation, poor maintenance of the obsolete infrastructure and a lack of waste treatment plants in the area. Tens of thousands of kilometers of pipes lie at its bottom, where crude oil leaks.

This news article itself an insult to Sabah and Sabahan people.
The mention of "bread" in exchange for Sabah dignity.
The mention of Sabah being a "state" in Malaysia instead of one of the separate founding partners of Malaysia. One of the regions building Malaysia.

Some GuyQuestion for the scientifically-minded:
As an endurance athlete and former #EMT But I have been thinking about this for maybe the past week or so.
Elite marathon runners train at high altitudes where the air is thinner and then run races at lower elevations where the air is denser. But...
What would happen if someone did brutal cardio workouts (assault bike, rowing machine, ski, etc.) in a hyperbaric chamber? How would performance, anaerobic fatigue, endurance be impacted? Nothing more than 2 ATA (66 feet-salt water) to start.
Understanding the blood and muscle tissue would be highly saturated with O2, far more than what hemoglobin would normally carry, does this mean the athlete would feel "supercharged"? On the other hand, what dangerous would arise? There are questions surrounding gas exchange. Would the body be able to clear the CO2? Initially, more oxygen = more performance but the body responds to stress and hypoxia.
It's an interesting idea. Thoughts, anyone?
