I know I'm the one being a bummer here, but has anyone considered the plastic content of the IBC totes and their effect on the food you're going to be consuming?
I don't want to sound like an alarmist, but there's increasing evidence that microplastic pollution may be causing fertility levels to drop cross-species. I will try to find a link to one of the many articles citing this evidence. It backs what Paul has been saying for quite a while now, anyways, regarding plastic being a bad choice.
Sorry to shit in the soup, but I feel like it's the used tire conversation again, except worse, because the totes perform a useful function that it's not really easy to replicate with anything unless you're a
cooper. And, you can't encapsulate them and have them work for you. Unless you coated them in clay... Adobeed IBC totes? Mix in crushed
biochar and you might end up with an effective, stable barrier to toxic leaching...
