45. Silver fillings emit thousands of times more Mercury
The atmosphere is full of Mercury vapor from Coal-fired power plants.

The biggest danger from Mercury is the Billions of old alkaline batteries that have been thrown away. They use a Zinc/Mercury amalgam. The really old ones are rotting in streams and woods all over the planet like miniature drums of extremely toxic waste where people have thrown them, not realizing the danger.
