Native Groups Want To Use Mushrooms To Clean Up After Government Waste

in conservation •  6 years ago 

Mycoremediation has got to be the coolest thing ever. I've been obsessed with mushrooms and their ability to clean things since I heard they could be used to clean up petroleum fuels, plastics, pesticides, dyes and heavy metals. Some species can even be used to retrieve precious metals like gold because they break them down and accumulate them in their bodies. I'm a huge Paul Stamets fan, he's a mushroom god.
