Spring Day Crater Lake wallpaper, Mercury fears may slow dolphin kill, Sunscreen killing coral

Spring Day Crater Lake wallpaper 

Dolphin Hunt Sags Amid Mercury Fears 

The highest concentration he has found so far was 100 parts per million from a bottlenose dolphin a species whose meat is butchered in Taiji.

“This ought to be investigated,” Endo said, calling for a government probe into the dangers of eating dolphin. “There are people who eat it a lot, and those people could be suffering health effects.”

It would be nice if the dolphin meat industry would use its resources to move on to a more progressive line of business because it is the right thing to do. The fears of mercury poisoning might push them in that direction anyway. That still leaves many dolphins and pilot whales with some level of mercury poisoning.

Swimmers’ Sunscreen Killing Off Coral 

Four commonly found sunscreen ingredients can awaken dormant viruses in the symbiotic algae called zooxanthellae that live inside reef-building coral species.

  • The wallpapers

    Many of the wallpapers were uploaded at certain sizes and resized by the picture host so in most cases you'll have to resize them to fit your monitor. I've looked into several options, but can't find a host that is free, reliable and keeps the original size. The well known ad supported hosts will delete any photo that has not be downloaded for a while so they're out. Any money I spend on the this blog I would rather spend on the graphics then the place to host them.
