A: Levaquin is an antibiotic that is used to treat all kinds of bacterial infections. Doctors usually prescribe this drug for treating infections of kidneys, bladder, skin, and sinuses. However, in recent years, levaquin has been linked to a number of severe side effects and birth defects.
Air. 1  The massive amounts of excrement produced by livestock farms emit toxic gases such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia into the air. Roughly 80% of ammonia emissions in the U.S. come from animal waste (The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency).
Each year, Commonwealth agencies produce approximately 35 m 3 of such radioactive waste-less than the volume of one shipping container. States and Territories together generate annually another 5 to 10 m 3 of this waste.By comparison, Britain and France each produce annually around 25,000 m 3 of low level waste.Australia currently holds approximately 535 m 3 of long-lived intermediate level radioactive waste (that is, radioactive waste requiring shielding for handling, transport and storage).y comparison, Britain and France each produce annually around 25,000 m 3 of low level waste.
