Correction to Monday's posting
Just in case you don't look at the reader comments that come in from my postings (what there are of them anyway) I wanted to call particular attention to this point:
Jackie Savitz, Oceana said:
"Peter, Thank you for writing this article on such an important subject. I wanted to clarify one point. While it is true that Oceana has been working for two and half years, to get Erco to make this switch, we are not in the business of buying mercury, and we've never purchased any of it. We advocate for safe permanent storage of mercury, and for the export ban that is currently being considered in Congress. More about who we are and what we do on mercury click For anyone interested, our mercury page is www.oceana.org/mercury."
Thank you for the correction. I think I jumped to the conclusion about Oceana buying mercury because I was remembering other organizations that have purchased other types of pollution permits to keep them off the market.
