For the last moth I have been in pre-production for a documentary that we finally began shooting last week called Mercury Arising. The film is about mercury toxicity in the US and how it is effecting our health and environment. Going into this documentary I thought I knew a lot about mercury, but after interviewing some Doctors, Dentists and scientist in the field my knowledge on the subject has massively grown. However, as I don’t want to impose my ideas on you, I will let the experts in our film do the talking. In the meantime I wanted to share some stills from our shoot as well as give you a few links if you are interested in finding out more about mercury, and some of the people we have been talking to.

Erin,
Just curious as to why you chose this subject?
Hey, Erin!! It must be very interesting!!! You will release it on TV as well?
By the way, I love your site, keep rockin’!!
Hi Erin,
All I can say is WOW! I remember a number of years ago Mercury poisoning was on people’s radar screen as a point of concern. [Not certain of all the details.] There was some information about not eating fish, etc., etc. However, then the topic just dropped. I am glad that you are undertaking this project and will be informing the public utilizing your creative genius. Thank you for your fantastic work! Please keep us posted on the progress of this documentary. Keep Rockin’it EKellyGirl!!!
Lots-o-love,
Dana
im going to have to check out these links you provided as well as check out the documentory when it comes out. i dont know alot about mercury other then it was used in some silver fillings back in the day which i have a lot of lol, and it can make us sick but nothing more. thanks for the links and the photos by the way the photos at leat for me help me more to get a visual on things your working on. by the way i hope your health is doing better.
I am very interested in seeing this documentary. I’ve heard that the fish has shown a lot of mercury, and as I do not eat red meat, only fish I was very worried.
Well, I hope the documentary for more information
good luck

I was just forwarded a great article on mercury levels in Tuna that you might find educational: http://news.yahoo.com/s/hsn/20100205/hl_hsn/testsshowtoptunabrandshavehighmercurylevels
Its scary that these are above the “safe level” yet they are still allowed to sell it!!
yummy !
Thanks for all those informations ! I think that what’s the most scarying about this article is to know that tuna is one example out of many ! Industrial foods companies are poisoning ourselves and government let them do it ! It’s a shame ! Personally, I’ve stopped buying and eating those “shit” and keep eating organic foods. Unlike what most of poeple think, it is not more expensive cause you re-learn to eat only what earth provides you and what your body really needs and stop eating all the transformed products that agro-foods sector invades us. When you read the ingredients of those products it is scarying to notice that there is no natural ingredients anymore. We are became cows!
Just wanted to share my point of view… Have a good meal !
the levels of mercury in any kind of seafood are crazy. there is a reason they tell pregnant women not to eat it. they say the best kind of seafood to get is european farm raised. im into the organic stuff, just seems safer
