Canadian environmental sustainability indicators : releases of harmful substances to water.: En4-144/81-2018E-PDF
"The release of some substances to the environment can harm human health, wildlife and biological diversity. Toxic metals released to water can enter the food web and accumulate in the tissues of living organisms. Exposure to these substances, even in small amounts, can be hazardous to both humans and wildlife. These indicators track human-related releases of mercury, lead and cadmium to water"--P. 5.
