Permafrost mercury hysteria is shameful corrupt pseudoscience
It seems that other climate skeptics haven't dedicated much attention to this particular recent mania but I was intrigued and disgusted, so here is my reaction.
You need about 1,000 tons of the Arctic soil to extract this much (43 grams) of mercury.
National Geographic and most other science news outlets have informed us that there is a lot of mercury underneath the thawing Arctic permafrost and when it thaws, all of us will get poisoned to one extent or another. Will we?
