Book Description
Understanding persistent organic pollutants (POPs) has occupied Melvin J. Visser for over a decade. Visser’s quest to understand contamination in the far north led him to discover that developing countries continue to use POPs. As polluted air travels around the globe, it falls as rain into northern waters. This fact, complicated by trade agreements and abelief that without POPs developing countries would have no agriculture at all, makes Cold, Clear and Deadlya must-read for anyone concerned about the silent but deadly toxic chemicals in our food and water.
