The Minamata Mercury Disaster (Mini-Documentary)

The Minamata Mercury Disaster was the worst cases of widespread mercury poisoning and one of the most cruel human disasters of all time. I made this for a school project and thought it might good enough to upload. For my usual viewers, I'll be back with the science stuff soon!

I made this video for a school project in a course about human disasters I took last semester. I thought the quality was good enough to upload. For my usual viewers, I'll be back with more science videos soon!

If you poison someone, even by mistake, you're likely to get in big trouble; but if a company poisons thousands then surprised Pikachu face 🙄

It's insane to me that people in companies get away with things like this by just paying some fine. Everyone in a company that knows about something like this happening should be charged with accessory to murder in my opinion.

Couldn't have said it better myself

Your channel is obscenely underrated. Let’s work on fixing that!

Very impressive student project. I teach environmental history and also teach about the Minamata poisoning, which is a more apt phrasing than the move conventional nomenclature of "Minamata Disease," I plan on using this mini docmentary as an excellent representation of how students can produce their own historical context.

The age old lessons... how to put them into action? That is the lesson we need to learn.

Sadly, a history that will be repeated over and over again

not only they pull every victim from social life, for every victim there should be a caretaker which should devote his life to care about the victim, so this company effectively costed 2x ruined lives

Am I wrong on this? I thought there had to be some viral or bacterial (possibly prion-based) cause for something to be considered a 'disease'. Otherwise, it's a condition. Poisoning, environmentally caused affliction like hypothermia, mental ailment from birth, or genetic ailment, would be considered a condition, no?
