Getting mercury out of caustic soda production
Thanks for posting about this! I work on Oceana's Campaign to Stop Seafood Contamination, which has been working since 2005 to get these companies to stop using mercury in the production of chlorine and caustic soda. We worked with then-Senator Obama to introduce the legislation mentioned in the post so I wanted to let you know that we will be working with members of Congress to finally get it passed this year!
Since the campaign started in 2005, the companies involved have voluntarily agreed to stop using mercury at 5 of the 9 plants that were originally using it. To email the owners of the remaining 4 plants, go to http://takeaction.oceana.org/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=11 ...On The FDA sat on evidence of mercury-tainted high-fructose corn syrup posted 10 months ago 13 Responses
