What. Anything above 50cm is rare, and I've never heard of a house having 1m of outer walls.

ftr, I live in a 120yrs old house (location is in Germany), walls are about 45cm (double-walled, just brick). Adding insulation will increase this to about 60cm . I'm planning on building a new home, walls will be about 40cm (inner sheeting + 24cm wood framing + 6cm outer insulation + 6cm facade). Anything above that and you're about to enter Passive House land, and why would you go beyond that

tl;dr:

in Brittany, seaweed appears in huge amounts as nitrates pollute the sea, courtesy of the pork industry.

as it rots, hydrogen sulfide is produced.

hydrogen sulfide stinks. but more hydrogen sulfide stinks less, as it starts to numb your olfactory sense. then it kills.


edit: apparently you wont see lethal concentrations way above the weed, but break through the crust and you can get a lethal whiff
