Air pollution’s devastating impact on children’s health
Every day around a staggering 93% of the world’s children under the age of 15 years breathes air that is so polluted it puts their health and development at serious risk.

Mysterious chemical found in dead cat’s brain reopens debate over mercury poisoning disaster
The city of Minamata, Japan, is dotted with monuments commemorating victims of an industrial mass poisoning decades ago. High in the hills, a small stone memorial honors other deaths—of cats sacrificed in secret to science. Now, after restudying the remains of one of those cats, a team of scientists is arguing, controversially, that the long-standing explanation for the tragedy is wrong.

Mercury (II) Binding Activity of Vegetable and Fruit Juices: Identifying Potential Detoxifying Juice
Artisanal gold mining is known to cause high levels of mercury (Hg) contamination to human populations, due mainly to many miners burning gold amalgams without the use of safety equipment and/or mercury capture systems. In Portovelo-Zaruma, Ecuador, there are more than 10,000 people directly involved in artisanal mining. As Hg vapour accumulates in the kidneys and brain, it is important to investigate potential agents that may be effective in helping to detoxify contaminated

Trading mercury
In 2012, the global trade in mercury reached a peak of US$210 million.

To demonstrate the scale, three years earlier trade equaled just $43 million. Alchemy Mining Group, Inc. ("AMGI") fueling; Alchemy Liquid Gold Coin Utili
