Minamata Convention on Mercury
Switzerland
Приєднався 29 лис 2018
The Minamata Convention on Mercury is a global treaty to protect human health and the environment from the adverse effects of mercury. It draws attention to mercury, a global and ubiquitous metal that, while naturally occurring, has broad uses in everyday objects and is released to the atmosphere, soil and water from a variety of sources. Controlling the anthropogenic releases of mercury throughout its lifecycle has been a key factor in shaping the obligations under the Convention, which entered into in force on 16 August 2017.
Minamata Online: Contribution of the chemicals and waste conventions to the Biodiversity Plan
The Secretariats of the Minamata Convention and BRS Conventions are convening an online information session on the contribution of the chemicals and waste conventions to the Kunming Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). The information session will discuss matters related to the impacts of chemicals and waste pollution on biodiversity in the context of the upcoming meetings under the Convention on Biological Diversity, namely, the fifth meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Implementation (SBI-5; 16 - 18 October 2024) and the sixteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP-16; 21 October - 1 November 2024) to be held in Cali, Colombia.

Great presentations
Congratulations, Madam Executive Secretary on the efforts of your team to abate the continuance of the use toxic in artisanal gold mining and in cosmetics.
To all the team at the Minamata Convention Secretariat: Happy 7th anniversary! And many more anniversaries to come with continued success!

Hiding that "silver" dental amalgams contain mercury is denying a fundamental right, which is the right to information. If I knew that my 4 amalgam fillings contained mercury, and there were no alternatives without bisphenol A (which there are), I would have preferred to have the 4 teeth to be filled extracted. Thus, I would be without 4 teeth, but with all my previous health. Thank you.
MID enhances general wellbeing of the individual....good oral and general health outcome
21st century dentistry is mercury free...minimum intervention dentistry (MID)...The goal of MID is keep all teeth and oral tissues healthy and functional for life.
Dental Amalgam is a 19th/20th century restorative that is toxic to human health and the environment. It belongs to the old 'drill and fill' era of dentistry that destroys sound tooth tissue thereby weakening the tooth structure progressively. The end result is loss of the tooth eventually.....toothless grandpa mouth.
congratulations and have a wonderfull day.
While waste management is a real concern, imagine the continued use of mercury dental amalgam and how that continues to perpetuate the problem...this is no longer acceptable to allow a known neurotoxin to be implanted in teeth...Will we ever see the end of this maddness?
There is no way that anyone can continue to support mercury dental amalgam if they care about human health and the environment...FULL STOP!
Totally agree, Anita. The victims of the mercury of "silver" dental amalgams have been abandoned! We are not given treatments to eliminate mercury from within our bodies in public healthcare!

Hello. Thanks for the video. Where could I get the book of Eugene Smith and Aileen Mioki Smith? Minamata people. Strong people. We need to be strong. We need to live as happily as we can. PD: I'm using the information in your video for doing a University Homework. I hope you don't mind. Let me now please.

You will be in Best healthy life in after this life if believe in One God. Justice will come soon to correct all world poisons in land and sea by The Book and Swords.
If ever there was a cause the twitter mob and SJWs should scream about, it's this. Forget pronouns, forget micro aggressions, forget racism... focus on the real damage humans inflict on each other.
I am watching this in my class because my Professor suggested this video. Seeing people suffering from this unfair disease hurts me so badly. I hope mercury used will be regulated soon, all over the world.
I have been asking my congressmen and or senator's & the White house questions like Why Doesn't the Stock Market reflect Medical sentiment of the Minamata Convention on Dental Amalgam Silver Mercury , 10-21-2016 , Global Silver Amalgam Alloys Market is Expected to Witness a Steady Growth by 2026 Press release from: Persistence Market Research Pvt. Ltd. www.openpr.com/news/374969/Global-Silver-Amalgam-Alloys-Market-is-Expected-to-Witness-a-Steady-Growth-by-2026.html the answer I have gotten is it was never ratified
This is a Cut & from emails and or letters I have sent post 2013 ...You have a daunting task before you, dealing with a extremely corrupt federal regulatory agency as we talked about the Telecommunication act of 1996 section 704 and the Notice of Inquiry Et Docket 13-84 Paragraph 205 , if it was carried out as it should have the senate and congress would have corrected much . I would like to offer my support. I will be reviewing your work you sent I will as I said be fallowing up with of the elected or appointed officials your city sent Petitions to , I hope you would take the time to review and fallow up with the medical anomaly I spoke of , Dental Silver Mercury Amalgams , The Hitler Molar Mic / Phone bridge , the bio electric , radio frequency /antenna , bone conduction , Leaching Heavy metals / Sensory mental health / misdiagnoses / distortion / Psych influence / induced tinnitus . I know you would find the same issues as I have and strive to demand better coordination of federal or state and local health and safety regulatory persons & entity’s to Enform the publics of the dangers of the influences of judgement and break down of diagnose which effects the effectives of Health professional to treat and or law enforcing dangers be effective to train to deal with the public.
Very 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 We wont stop till all country's compile. Let history teach us
しのぶさん、松永さん、大事なメッセージを伝えてくださりありがとうございます〜〜!
I am really surprised given the home office and over cite as a Healthcare regulatory agency for the United States is the Embassy in Kenya. Where is ,Obama ,John Kerry and or Clinton was not shown speaking about medical healthcare reform . I am quess-ing the reasons neither Obama nor Clinton nor any other demarcate running for office in the United state 2020 elections race isn't picking up where they left off is a image issue. I wonder who with the disposition of Amalgams would have been the speaker. I thought at best Clinton would have given she wanted the white house so bad? With all the issues of saving the demarcates one would think the Historical precedence of taking action to end and or acknowledgement for the Hitler Phone bridge anomaly & the bio electric radio frequency antenna leaching heavy metals psych affects possibilities of induced tinnitus . One might think the democrats would front head line news demanding the reform of health care.
