hokuili,
The point of my post was to suggest that if a person is concerned about mercury contamination, wouldn’t they be concerned with all mercury contamination? Not just a small amount in one isolated area, where if it was released into the environment, which it wasn’t, it would affect very few people. It did however affect no one as it was contained and removed.
On the other hand, we have a crematorium in populated Hilo which releases free mercury on a regular basis. Where are the protests?
When a person with amalgam fillings is cremated, the dental mercury is heated up and released as vapor from the crematorium. The mercury pollution from cremation is released into the air and eventually reaches other parts of the environment as well where it can contaminate wildlife, water bodies, people and our food supply, especially fish.
