Toxic Red Waste Pond near Brown Coal Power Station, Lausitz, Germany. The Union of Concerned Scientists website asserts: "Waste created by a typical 500-megawatt coal plant includes more than 125,000 tons of ash and 193,000 tons of sludge from the smokestack scrubber each year. Toxic substance in the waste - including arsenic mercury, chromium, and cadmium - can contaminate drinking water supplies and damage vital human organs and the nervous system." Every year, among many other things, this power plant releases about 238 kg mercury and 10,700,000 tons of CO2 into the air and 168 kg of arsenic into the ground. © J Henry Fair — Used with permission.
