The second of five episodes in the Lead Story series, In this video Richard Trudgen looks at where lead is found in our environment. This includes lead in billabongs and lead poisoning of magpie geese due to lead bullets. Also lead poisoning from the dust of old paint and lead in car batteries. And also lead in avgas from planes, plus how it enters the body. We talk about how lead may be passed from these places onto people and how more lead is absorbed by children than adults.
