1. Today is #internationaldayofwomeninmining

Today, we recognize all the women working in artisanal and small-scale mining, directly or indirectly, and how they are contributing to the formalization and professionalization of the sector. #asgm #makemercuryhistory

How can we make artisanal and small-scale gold mining more environmentally sustainable and equitable, and who should pay for it? #MakeMercuryHistory #ASGM SaraGeenen Bossissi Nkuba,PhD. Applied Plant Ecology Lab Jacob Phelps authors.elsevier.com/a/1emA49C~ItyK…

Very excited to be visiting Larissa Schneider at ANU just in time to see the first analysis of #mercury in Dom Kpokro’s samples from Ivory Coast artisanal gold mining sites! UOW Centre for Atmospheric Chemistry (CAC) UOW Research Mercury Aus #MakeMercuryHistory

#MinamataCOP4 opens in Bali, Indonesia. Global Environment Facility (GEF) delegation, headed by CEO Carlos Manuel Rodriguez is here to do our part to #MakeMercuryHistory

These movies actually got the history part right, see which ones made the list.

In our July Living Room Session, we learned how difficult it is for a mine to receive the Fairmined Eco certification. Eco certification means that neither mercury nor cyanide are used and this requires special technology and costly machinery. bit.ly/3OIk8TA

From historical inaccuracies to things that just don't make sense, these mistakes in James Cameron's Titanic went unnoticed by viewers for years.

The EEB and Zero Mercury Working Group developed a guide and checklist - acknowledged by Minamata Convention on Mercury - to support nations in developing action plans to phase out MAPs📉

EEB’s Elena Lymberidi will be assisting nations to #MakeMercuryHistory

👋The AGC is at the Minamata Convention on Mercury COP4 in #Bali ! Stop by our booth with Ministerio del Ambiente 🇵🇪♻️ and learn more about our work and planetGOLD Programme, especially our planetGOLD Mongolia planetGOLD Burkina Faso and planetGOLD Philippines projects.

Together we will #MakeMercuryHistory !

Presenting a collection of some of the most notorious cars ever made in automotive history. It's astonishing how these vehicles turned out so poorly, but even more surprising is how long they managed to stay on the market.

#DispatchesFromTheField | In #BurkinaFaso a newly installed #mercuryfree gold processing system is providing an opportunity for miners to train & experience firsthand the benefits of alternative technologies that can help #MakeMercuryHistory in the country's mining sector. 👇

.Global Environment Facility (GEF) has invested >$133m in environmental initiatives in the artisanal & small-scale #GoldMining sector ⛏️

Our #evaluation looks at how sustained reductions in mercury use were achieved: gefieo.org/evaluations/go…

Our contribution to mapping of sites contaminated with #mercury #makemercuryhistory #Russia succeeded to prolong use of mercury in old chlor-alkali plants (see some photos) at one of previous meetings of Minamata Convention on Mercury: researchgate.net/publication/36…

Happy to have ITN GMOS-Train Project PhD ⭐️ Charikleia Gournia this month on a secondment visit to MIT. Lots of great exchange on global mercury modeling and emission inventories #ESR15 #MakeMercuryHistory 🍂 🐿

Artisanal & small-scale gold miners need access to finance to transition to non-mercury technologies.

In response, Global Environment Facility (GEF)’s planetGOLD Programme program scaled up and shifted strategy. Find out how during #MinamataCOP4 : bit.ly/3NiogdK

A good start to the International Conference on Mercury as a Global Pollutant ( #ICMGP ), watching my own talk at 2 am 😁. Looking forward to connecting with others in Hg science and policy this week #MakeMercuryHistory

At the end of MC-COP4.2 the delegation from Tanzania, comprising of State Party and NGO took to document this memorable occasion.
Let's #MakeMercuryHistory together!

It costs money to go mercury free. Much more money than most motivated miners have. This is why we need industries of all types to be partners in the technological shift to #mercuryfree #gold .
