West Bengal & Bangladesh Arsenic Crisis Information Centre - An environmental health disaster is unfolding in West Bengal and
Bangladesh. Tens of millions of persons in many districts are
drinking ground water with arsenic concentrations far above
acceptable levels. Thousands of people have already been
diagnosed with poisoning symptoms, even though much of the
at-risk population has not yet been assessed for arsenic-related
health problems. This web site provides an online focal point for this environmental health disaster and includes an infobank of news articles, scientific papers, comprehensive links to other relevant sites, online forum, email newsletter, and local site search.
