Blame it on the birds

Seabird droppings — not particles carried by the winds — are the major source of pollutants in some parts of the Arctic. This discovery could lead to a better understanding of global pollution patterns.

The details are in an audio link.  The very concept that the major pollution problem in the Arctic are not manmade is a profound leap from all the "evidence" environmentalists would have us believe.  I would be a lot more skeptical of this article if it were from junkscience.com.  But, it’s not, it’s from NPR.  No news organization has been a larger support of the environmentalists than NPR.  For them to run this article baffles me.
