And, beyond identifying them (the rate of release, the reaction with water which may degrade them), the article doesn't do a good job of actually putting numbers to the constraints to the harm these substance will pose. So it's entirely possible for this article to be true, and that the actual threat to marine health from these munitions is negligible.crfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726414637021391906noreply@blogger.com
