English term or phrase: (environmental) soup

This installation might add energy to the environmental *soup*, with large effects.

Este vorba despre o antena emitatoare si efectele sale nedorite.

Dar ce sa fie cu "soup"? Autorul se exprima uneori si ironic, ar putea fi aici vorba chiar despre o expresie ca "supa mediului"? Cum am spune noi "un talmes-balmes"?
Dictionarul mai da si sensul argotic "dinamita".
