Scientists in California are warning of potentially toxic levels of mercury that are being released into the Alaskan water supply, even going as far as calling it a mercury time bomb waiting to explode. The research team says they have found evidence that climate change has led to Arctic permafrost to start melting. They say the melt is releasing long frozen mercury deposits into the Yukon River , a source of food and water for about 5 million people living above the Arctic Circle . They say the release of mercury will have serious environmental and health effects for the Biome and the people living there..
