Better Without Mercury
Nov 22, 2018Better Without Mercury Project
It isn’t everyday we have the opportunity to prevent pollution from toxic mercury.
Until miners from the Fortaleza Mining Association in Colombia achieve their mercury free goal, Christina T. Miller sustainable jewelry consulting and our partners will continue to raise the funds necessary to complete this clean-up.
This initiative is being hosted on the Ethical Metalsmiths website so that your support (of course you are invited to participate) is tax deductible.
Our overall fundraising goal is $65,000. And between now and the end of December, we are raising the $9,000 required for the first phase, contracting an excavation company to prepare the area where the mercury contaminated soil will be permanently stored.
FOR JEWELERS:
Mercury pollution plays a major role in the darker side of our materials. The Better Without Mercury project offers an opportunity for your company to be a part of the solution.
