Phys.Org: Climate scientists: Australian uranium mining pollutes Antarctic Uranium mining in Australia is polluting the Antarctic, about 6,000 nautical miles away. University of Maine climate scientists made the discovery during the first high-resolution continuous examination of a northern Antarctic Peninsula ice core. Ice core data reveal a significant increase in uranium concentration that coincides with open pit mining in the Southern Hemisphere, most notably Australia, says lead researcher Mariusz...

Precision Castparts pollutes Johnson Creek
2016-04-07 18:13:45| Industrial Machines - Topix.net
Johnson Creek begins its 26-mile journey from pristine headwaters in the Cascade foothills near Boring, but as it snakes through Gresham, Portland and Milwaukie, it picks up a contaminated payload before spilling into the Willamette River. At an oxbow three miles from the mouth of Johnson Creek, it flows 400 feet from side-by-side Precision Castparts Corp. manufacturing plants along Johnson Creek Boulevard, which Portland regulators found have repeatedly discharged toxins into a storm pipe draining into the creek.

ScienceDaily: New data presented by researchers at Lund University and others in the journal Oceanologia, show that the air along the coasts is full of hazardous nanoparticles from sea traffic. Almost half of the measured particles stem from sea traffic emissions, while the rest is deemed to be mainly from cars but also industries and natural particles from the sea. "This is the first time an attempt has been made to estimate the proportion of nanoparticles stemming from sea traffic. The different types of nanoparticles...
