- Title
Mercury and carbon dioxide emissions: Uncoupling a toxic relationship.
- Authors
Hammerschmidt, Chad R.
- Abstract
The article focuses on mercury and carbon emissions which may increase unless manmade emissions of mercury are decoupled from atmospheric carbon dioxide. It is mentioned that manmade sources of emissions account for approximately two-thirds of the mercury in the environment. It is suggested that government and organizations should issue fish consumption advisories to the public.
