El Día del Compromiso Internacional del Control del Mercurio se celebra cada 23 de febrero y no es una fecha cualquiera.
Conmemora la adopción del Convenio de Minamata sobre el Mercurio, un acuerdo global que busca reducir el uso y las emisiones de este metal tóxico en todo el planeta.¿Y por qué tanto revuelo con el mercurio?
Porque es traicionero.
No lo ves, no lo hueles… pero puede dañar el sistema nervioso, afectar al desarrollo infantil y contaminar ríos y mares durante décadas.
La historia que dio nombre al convenio ocurrió en Minamata, donde miles de personas sufrieron graves intoxicaciones tras verterse mercurio industrial al agua.
Una tragedia que dejó claro que lo invisible también mata.Hoy más de 140 países se han comprometido a controlar su uso en minería, productos industriales y procesos sanitarios.
No es solo política ambiental; es salud pública, justicia y sentido común.A veces pensamos que los grandes problemas quedan lejos.
Pero el aire que respiramos y el pescado que comemos no entienden de fronteras.
Cuidar eso no es activismo romántico, es supervivencia inteligente.Porque el progreso no debería dejar residuos que paguen nuestros nietos.

#minamata is one of the most intense movies I ever watched.
It triggers so many reflections, about the so called "progress" of our civilization, neglecting with the environment and harming ourselves, in exchange of capital.
A shocking and eye opening history, hands down.

まぐろの水銀含有量が下がらない理由
Why Is Mercury Stubbornly High in Tuna? Researchers Might Have an Answer. (New York Times)
最近Environmental Science & Technology Lettersに発表された研究によると、年月をかけて蓄積された深海の有害金属は、魚が餌を求める浅い海に循環していることが分かった。すでに水銀には厳しい規制があるものの、海洋中の水銀濃度の低下が始まるには10から25年かかると専門家は見ている。そのため、まぐろの水銀含有量が減るのはもっとかかる。
日本では水俣病によりその怖さが知られているが、母親が妊娠中に汚染された海産物を食べることにより、少量でも胎児に影響が出る。2013年の水銀に関する水俣条約により、水銀の使用を根絶する方針に世界各国が合意しているものの、途上国の小規模な金採掘ではまだ使用されており、より厳しい規制の必要性も指摘される。

> ... the condolence payment system was fraught with rumor-mongering, intimidation and outright fraud. Despite the 1897 order and the small sums paid out by Furukawa, the pollution problem continued, and a second Pollution Prevention Committee was created in 1902.

詩のことを話し合うグループが水俣に感心があるので、 見つぐらい、 読みやすいような形に提供したいと思います。 #水俣フォーラム の #水俣へ の本のように 「#MINAMATA」に載っている詩には振り仮名がない。 後で人と相談しながら付けてみればいいかも。 有名人が水俣の映画を作るまでに「MINAMATA」の日本語版高くて買わなかったけど、 #水俣市 の #相思社 に行ったら 日本語版再販お買えた。 友達に日本語版を貸してもらったときに、 この詩とゆっくり付き合いたいなぁと思っていた。

.> The resistance of local and national authorities and the chemical industry was stubborn. Ostracized by unaffected residents whose living depended upon the polluting company, and over protestations even of relatives, Mrs. ISHIMURE persisted. A collection of essays by her and others, Waga Shimin�Minamata-byo Toso (Minamata Disease�My Dead People), was published in 1972. A second book, a compilation of her own perceptive writings previously carried in leading magazines and newspapers, Rumin no Miyako (City of Drifters), was in its third printing within a month after publication in March 1973.

.> As scientists, publicists and committees of concerned citizens have gained hearing in Tokyo, the Health and Welfare Ministry belatedly has acted. Though the chemical industry has begun corrective measures, the battle still is not won. As Mrs. ISHIMURE chronicles it, the Minamata tragedy is only a part of the ongoing struggle between the simple innocence of fishermen and farmers and the tyranny of mass industrialization that threatens to dehumanize society.
.> In electing MICHIKO ISHIMURE to receive the 1973 Ramon Magsaysay Award for Journalism, Literature and Creative Communication Arts, the Board of Trustees recognizes her as the "voice of her people" in their struggle against the industrial pollution that has been distorting and destroying their lives. -
> It is with this holistic notion of the relationship between humans, soul, other living things as well as inanimate nature in the life-world that Ogata and sixteen other Minamata disease sufferers established the 'Association of the Original Vow' (Hongan no Kai 本願の会) in 1995.

> .. at the end of 1959, #Chisso’s president publicly drank a glass of water from the Cyclator, without announcing that the wastewater from the acetaldehyde plant, which contained mercury, was not being run through the #Cyclator. An eerily similar performance took place on March 24, 2011 when Tokyo’s Governor #IshiharaShintarō drank a glass of tap water on national television..
