peace of mind = priceless.
I feel a lot of us have little rituals that don't help much, but help our sanity somehow :wink:

Also, it's still natural. Shit. It's not like we're talking about dumping uranium or asbestos or anything. You can re-dissolve solids that didn't dissolve and keep using your lime. I've seen amazing limestone formations, and you're not going to tell me it's killing all the cute animals in those caves. It's all cycles and as long as we respect them enough, they don't screw us.




What you are referring to is limestone (calcium carbonate) in solid form, in "natural conditions" that don't artificially dissolve a great deal of it for production uses. Moreover, organisms that DID evolve around limestone formations, are ADAPTED to living in such conditions. Just like you might find sulphur loving organisms elsewhere. Swap the living conditions, and both organisms are fucked.

Meanwhile, what we use is calcium hydroxide, a vastly different beast. If I dump out my trash and it ends up in the local waterway (don't even start with the whole generalized "dump on rocks" crap, that is precisely the reason why you can find shittons of  (disease inducing) fecal bacteria in practically every waterway, because herpy derpy farmers think manuer doesn't eventually leech out of the soil into the water and spread it profusely), the organisms present are NOT adapted to this kind of environment. The rock method may apply in certain environments, not all.

Yes, its cycles, no, we (as humans) aren't the only players in it. It might not screw us directly, but that doesn't exclude us from not considering others.

But hey, whatever ritual of self convincing of nonharm you need to perform to achieve piece of mind, by all means, do it. The rest of us can spare a second and a few cents (as proven above) to at least minimize our footprint. You'd think the mushroom scene would have a hefty amount of solution seekers compared to excuse makers, given it's "waste to food" and mycoremeditation aspects. Heck, I even brought a solution to your door step, and yet you moan.

All said and done, if you aren't interested in being less of a cancer to your surroundings, by all means get the fuck out of discussions to which you cannot contribute productively.
