Global agreement on mercury in sight
It is not only Icelandic volcanic ash that blows freely across national borders. The same certainly applies to mercury, one of the world’s most dangerous environmental toxins. We in the Nordic countries must therefore work together to secure a legally binding instrument for regulating the use and emission of mercury. The Nordic countries have played a leading role in initiating this crucial work, and the foundation for such an agreement will be laid at the UN Mercury Conference in Stockholm in June.
