Dreadful fear-mongering? Plenty to monger! Good gracious -we are even told to watch and limit the amount of fish we eat thanks to its mercury content. And mercury (horribly toxic) is only one of many substances that we should get concerned about. "The researchers, led by scientists from Harvard University and the U.S. Geological Survey, found that the ocean’s mercury levels have already risen about 30% over the last 20 years. Combined, the findings mean the Pacific Ocean will be twice as contaminated with mercury in 2050 as it was in 1995 if the emission rates continue."
