China suspected of dumping so much poop in the ocean ‘we can see it from space,’ US satellite firm says

This weekend, a U.S. satellite intelligence firm Simularity released a report connecting the movements of more than 200 suspected Chinese vessels in the South China Sea with massive deposits of human waste.

From May 14, 2016 to June 17, 2021, Simularity tracked clusters of anchored ships operating around the Spratly Islands and matched them with concentrations of Chlorophyll-a, indicative of the ships dumping raw sewage.

While Chlorophyll-a deposits can happen near shorelines due to runoff from fertilized agricultural areas, erosion of riverbanks and land clearing, Derr said the Chlorophyll-a deposits this far out in the ocean are due entirely to “ship wastewater and human habitation without sufficient sewage treatment.”

During an interview with ABS-CBN News, Simularity founder and CEO Liz Derr said her firm “can’t definitively say that those are Chinese, but they seem to be the same ships that have been there since March and they look very similar so I think, in all probability, they are.”

“The sewage from the anchored ships in the Spratlys is damaging the reefs, and we can see this from space,” Derr said during a separate live-streamed presentation on Sunday, hosted by Stratbase.

This seems bizarre. How do they get it into ships to dump? How do they get it out of the ships? Or do they just run pipes to the sea?

Damaging the reefs , I thought they were braking it up and hauling the reef away so it doesn’t matter if it’s dead

Meanwhile, we can’t have phosphates in our dishwasher detergent because our evnviro-idiots think it might raise algae levels. Absolute insanity.

That's going to leave a really bad taste in the mouth of the little Chinese boy who can swallow the sea.

Every time I see something in the grocery store that says “Farm raised in China”, I wonder what they use for fertilizer and then just put it back.

Probably a lot of coronavirus / COVID virus in that waste, too. How long can it survive in the ocean? Will it make it to land in a viable condition?

Get ready for more MSM / CDC fear — “Don’t go near the ocean! It’s full of COVID-contaminated Chinese poop.”

Poop is just a word for processed food.
